Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana to Reunite in Guardians of the Galaxy

Former couple and The Words stars will team back up for the Marvel action flick

Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana are getting back together…on screen.

The former couple, who called it quits right before the holidays in 2012, are reuniting for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, an action flick that follows a pilot and his team of aliens as they battle cosmic threats, according to Deadline.

Lee Pace, Djimon Hounsou, Benicio del Toro, John C. Reilly and Glenn Close are also set to star in the film.

This is the second film Cooper and Saldana have starred in together, with their romance kicking off in 2010 after meeting on the set of their drama flick, The Words.

Both of the actors have moved on since their split, with Cooper romancing model Suki Waterhouse and Saldana linked to Italian artist Marco Perego.

It's not clear if there will be any awkward moments for the duo though, considering Cooper will only be voicing his character Rocket Raccoon in the film, rather than physically acting in it.

There's still the matter of the promo tour though, once the movie nears its premiere date.

Guardians of the Galaxy is set to be released Aug. 1, 2014.
