9. Korath the Pursuer
In the comic books, Korath the Pursuer is an ally of Ronan the Accuser, an agent of the Kree Empire, and the founder of a project to develop cybernetic warriors. How much of that will make it into Guardians of the Galaxy remains to be seen, although it does seem clear that he won’t be their ally!
Played by Blood Diamond’s Djimon Hounsou, this version of the character also shares very few similarities to his comic book counterpart in terms of appearance. When it comes to powers, that version has superhuman strength, stamina, and durability, along with the ability to psionically locate individuals by tracing their brain patterns. While Thanos will seemingly have some sort of presence in the movie, Ronan and Korath so far appear to be the two lead villains, so it should be interesting to see if any of the powers listed above come into play and whether he’s more than just a glorified henchman.
