Although Dave Bautista is shining in Guardians of the Galaxy, the actor had a bad time in his life before joining Marvel.
Dave Bautista became known by joining the WWE. But, his greatest stardom came from the hand of Guardians of the Galaxy, the famous Marvel film directed by James Gunn and starring Chris Pratt. Although he was already a well-known person before joining the MCU, the actor was not having a good time.
During an interview with IGN, Dave Bautista decided to talk about his private life and recounted the bad time he was going through before joining Marvel Studios. “When I got the role of Drax in ‘Guardians’ I had hardly worked in three years. I had left the fight behind and could have come back with my tail between my legs but I would have remained stuck in a place where I would not have been able to advance, I just took a risk. I was ruined. When I say ruined, my house was foreclosed, I had nothing, man. I had sold all my things. I sold everything I had made from when I was fighting. He had problems with the Treasury. I was lost in everything ”, revealed.

To buy Christmas gifts for my children. It wasn’t that long ago. So it happened fast for me, which made it more surreal. But it did, it changed my life. Gave me a lifeDave Bautista commented.
