So far, names that were thought to be high on director James Gunn's shortlist to play Peter Quill were Garrett Hedlund (Tron Legacy), Joel Edgerton (Zero Dark Thirty) and Jack Huston (Outlander). However, over the last day or so these have been eclipsed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

"Guardians of the Galaxy" is about a team of superheroes guard the galaxy from danger is due to hit screens in the Summer 2014.
