A guest interacts with Baby Groot in a high-tech, blue-lit room, capturing the whimsical spirit and adventure visitors experience at Walt Disney World.

“I am Groot! I am Groot. I… am Groot. I am Groot!”

The cute little shrub wants everyone to know that you can now meet Baby Groot along with Star-Lord from “Guardians of the Galaxy” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. A new Walt Disney World meet-and-greet not only features Peter Quill in the flesh but also the pint-sized version of Groot, interacting with guests.

Yep, Groot moves and speaks some lines – or, rather, a single line (you know what it is) over and over. You can’t help but love him.

A sleek, metallic sci-fi circular door featuring bold geometric patterns and a bright yellow handle, illuminated with dynamic overhead lighting—just like the futuristic entryways you’d discover on attractions at Walt Disney World or in epic Guardians of the Galaxy adventures alongside Star-Lord and Baby Groot.

Once inside, you’ll find Star-Lord and Baby Groot not only talking with each other but interacting with you too.

A guest wearing a brown jacket interacts with Baby Groot in front of a futuristic control panel, capturing the excitement of a Disney Parks Meet-and-Greet experience.

Star-Lord stands in a brown jacket with his signature brown hair and mustache, pointing straight at the camera with an intense look, ready for action as if leading a mission at Marvel’s Avengers Campus.

Just melt over the many faces of Baby Groot:

Star-Lord previously appeared at Walt Disney World in 2014 for one night only at the Villains Unleashed event.

WATCH:

The intergalactic duo has appeared in the park as “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” soars into theaters today. There’s no word as to how long Star-Lord and Baby Groot will be meeting guests, but for now, they’re available from the park open to close each day.

For some additional Baby Groot fun, the park is also offering limited edition sipper cups for $12.75 each, including a fountain beverage:
