If it isn’t our old Droogie Pyro,” Stanford captioned the photo on his Instagram. He looks battle-ready in his costume.

Pyro’s return nearly after twenty years was surprising for many fans, but it has created the excitement even further. The character appeared in a red and yellow costume complementing his trademark red goggles. Now the question is, where would Pyro stand in the movie? Only time will tell.
