Diesel also voiced Groot in Russian, Portuguese, French, and Spanish, all of which were filmed as part of behind-the-scenes footage for the film. _Guardians of The Galaxy_ is now playing in theaters nationwide. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3070761/watch-vin-diesel-say-his-only-line-in-guardians-of-the-galaxy-in-4-different-languages/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3070761/watch-vin-diesel-say-his-only-line-in-guardians-of-the-galaxy-in-4-different-languages/"},"headline":"Watch Vin Diesel Say His Only Line in Guardians of the Galaxy in 4 Different Languages","datePublished":"2014-08-01T16:20:13.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:27:57.731Z","description":"\"Yo soy Groot\"","url":"https://time.com/3070761/watch-vin-diesel-say-his-only-line-in-guardians-of-the-galaxy-in-4-different-languages/","keywords":["movies","celebrities","Marvel","entertainment","Comics","Behind the scenes"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb1ad230fc1c74b13/69869e1a3bc999a4b91a4c57/3650073-guardians-of-the-galaxy-hi-res-photo-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Emily Jacobs"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb1ad230fc1c74b13/69869e1a3bc999a4b91a4c57/3650073-guardians-of-the-galaxy-hi-res-photo-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"XXX GUARDIANS-GALAXY-MOV-JY-0704.JPG A ENT","caption":"XXX GUARDIANS-GALAXY-MOV-JY-0704.JPG A ENT","creditText":"NONE—Marvel","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3070761/watch-vin-diesel-say-his-only-line-in-guardians-of-the-galaxy-in-4-different-languages/","name":"Watch Vin Diesel Say His Only Line in Guardians of the Galaxy in 4 Different Languages"}}]}] ```
