Lady Gaga is rumoured to be joining the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.

According to HollywoodLife, the pop star could end up voicing a love interest for her A Star is Born co-star Bradley Cooper and his character Rocket Raccoon.

“There is a very strong possibility that Lady Gaga and Bradley will be working together again on Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Only some cast names have been released but the word is Bradley will reprise his role of Rocket Raccoon and Gaga will play his love interest. Their characters are animated but still, it’s exciting,” an insider said.

“Audiences want them together and certainly everyone recognises that appeal, they’re box office gold together, it’s very likely that this will happen.”

Fellow musician Beyoncé has already set a precedent, lending her voice to the role of Nala in Disney’s upcoming The Lion King remake, while Miley Cyrus had a small cameo as Mainframe in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

If Gaga is cast, it’s likely she’d play Lylla, who is a sentient otter and Rocket’s soulmate in the Marvel comics.

A release date for the film is yet to be confirmed.
