Fans are shocked to learn that Miley Cyrus was once a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In 2017’s "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2," director James Gunn assembled an all-star cast for cameos in the mid-credits scene.

Cameos included appearances from Sylvester Stallone, Michael Rosenbaum, Ving Rhames, Michelle Yeoh, and most notably, Cyrus herself.

In an interview with BuzzFeed, Gunn revealed that he got the idea to cast Cyrus after seeing her as a judge on "The Voice."

"I find her funny and likable and sweet," Gunn told the outlet, per Newsweek. "I liked that she cared about the contestants. So I was like, I think she would be a funny person to have as a voice. So we contacted her, and she said yes. She came in and recorded, and she was a delight to work with."
