It's no secret that "Fast & Furious 7" cast and main man Vin Diesel effectively portrayed the role of Groot in the highly successful intergalactic superhero film of Marvel titled "Guardians of the Galaxy."

In fact he was so effective that he would return to reprise his role as the talking tree with heart and soul in the sequel of the James Gunn's film.

While everything is already set for the actor and the sequel, rumor has it that "Fast & Furious 7" cast Vin Diesel is in line to star in a new Marvel movie "Inhumans" scheduled for release in 2019.

The 47-year-old action star teased his fans on Facebook saying,

"I get the strange feeling Marvel thinks I'm Inhuman... Haha."

Diesel once again hinted fans of his involvement in the upcoming "Inhumans" movie following the first Facebook post.

"Are You Inhuman?" he posted together with a picture of himself.

MTV candidly imposed the question to Diesel during the press junket of his "Fast & Furious 7" film.

"Oh god," Diesel said, laughing. "Wow. Right for the jugular. You see, Marvel? They ask me these questions!"

While he did not confirm anything, Diesel did not deny his involvement in other Marvel films either.

"You know, I enjoyed the experience of playing Groot. A lot of it was the great cast, and the genius of James Gunn. But I also enjoyed, you know, entering into the Marvel world. And... Good things will come from that."

But before he could star in another Marvel superhero movie, the "Fast & Furious 7" star has his eyes focused ont the upcoming "Guardians of the Galaxy 2."

"I just talked to James Gunn last week once we got all the wonderful nominations for the MTV Movie Awards," Diesel continued. "To think that I'm nominated for best duo, again this year, as a tree [laughs] is pretty outrageous, especially since Paul [Walker] and I won best duo in 2002, when the MTV audience was the first to embrace [the "Fast & Furious"] saga. It was really was. It was the MTV audience that said, 'this is important.' And they've been loyal ever since to the point, just last year we won best duo again, 12 years apart."

Vin Diesel further revealed that director James Gunn is already working on the sequel as early as now.

"I know James Gunn is very excited and he's working on it right now," Diesel added. "He's very excited about what Groot will do in the 2017 movie."
