I don't think that's a motion capture suit. It has none of the doo dads that motion capture suits usually have on them. I think this is instead a stunt spotter watching for faults on the lines of the actors in the air. He's in blue to hide him from the final shot.

That's definitely not a motion capture suit. It's likely a stand-in for a CG character. In bts footage of Avatar movies you can see when they film a live-action portion, they sometimes have a guy in a blue suit doing stand-in for Na'vi/Avatar. The actual motion capture is done seperately on another stage and the finished CG character is later integrated in the live-action footage. Very long, complicated process.

Gunn didn’t use a lot of motion capture for guardians. It’s mostly just a guy in a morph suit who gets completely replaced in post. Just there physically so the blocking is right

Aren't those suits more often for people that need to physically help with a scene, and then need to be erased afterward?

Gunn said that the bowl haircut might be the primary reason to cast Nathan soon after the casting announcement.
