When Guardians of the Galaxy debuted in theaters, it was almost instantly a smash hit and went on to become the highest-grossing film of the year at the domestic box office. Countless people were now fans of the ragtag group of misfits, including Academy Award-winning actor Al Pacino, who called the film “amazing, inventive, and beautiful.” Now, on the Happy Sad Confused Podcast (via MTV), Pacino reveals he has since met with Marvel Studios and its president Kevin Feige. When asked if he thought there was a part in store for him, he replied: “I would imagine either there’s something he feels is right for me, or…” which is when Pacino’s phone began to ring. “Every time we talk about Marvel, that’s what happens.” Like so many others, Marvel meets with a lot of actors, and whether anything ever comes of it remains to be seen, but Marvel Studios does have a number of movies coming up where Pacino could find himself such as Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Inhumans, or perhaps even Avengers: Infinity War. www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/390609-al-pacino-has-met-with-marvel-studios-and-kevin-feige

The popular rumor right now is that he will be cast as Peter Quill's father. That would be... something.

Glen Close wound up as head of the Nova Corps rather than a known character. Robert Redford got cast as a new character, too. Pacino will likely find himself in a one and done role.

Alexander Pierce isn't a "new" character, but I agree with your point. I don't expect Quill's father to be a huge character in the series though, so I still think Pacino could potentially take that role if dad isn't going to be a character familiar to us.
