Karen Gillan reveals the shocking behind-the-scenes of Nebula's character in "Guardians of The Galaxy"

Karen Gillan reprises her role as Nebula in " Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3", the final installment of director James Gunn's Marvel trilogy of Guardians.

Thought "flying color" soon

It can be said that, throughout the adventures of the Guardians through the Guardians of The Galaxy movies, Nebula is one of the most unexpected breakthrough characters. From a villain who only obeyed the orders of his adoptive father Thanos, waging war with his sister Gamora, Nebula gradually changed, making the audience turn from hate to love.

Few people know that Nebula's initial fate is quite dire, she is expected to be "sleep" right in the first Guardian movie. But Karen Gillan says she never had to film Nebula "fading", because the script was rewritten during production. "Suddenly they rewrote her ending, then wrote it again. I was really shocked to have to re-record and be part of the team in the sequel. It was amazing!"

Instead of killin.g Nebula, director James Gunn continued to let her become a member of the Guardians, helping her relationship with Gamora and the other members develop, even having a potentially important role in the Avengers. : Infinity War.

Emotional goodbye

Although it was initially unknown that Nebula could be kept until the en.d, Karen Gillan was also very invested in her character. When she auditioned for the role, she read the lines in a Scottish accent, her hometown, but it didn't work. Director James Gunn suggested that she try "combining Marilyn Monroe and Clint Eastwood" - two legendary Hollywood movie icons. As a result, a characteristic hoarse voice was born, perfect for Thanos' half-human, half-machine adopted daughter.

At that time, Karen shaved her hair and trained for two months, while studying ancient Spartan fightin.g techniques to best play the role of Nebula.

Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3 is the last adventure of the Guardians, so not only MCU fans but even the film's cast have a lot of emotions. Karen Gillan said, "There was a scene at the en.d of the movie that was like the en.d of an era. And everyone cried in that scene. When you watch that scene, just know that none of us were actually acting. We were both very emotional. It was like a goodbye. And it felt so real."

Nebula changes from the inside out

Nebula's appearance in Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3 looks different from her previous appearances in the MCU. Many observant viewers noticed that Nebula now looks more human. Nebula has a new, "full" arm, not a "skewed" robot like before. Most of the metal components on her head have also been removed. But in part 3, not only Nebula's appearance but also became more "human".

In season 3, Karen felt a marked change in her character. She feels that her characters and Zoe Saldana (Gamora) have strangely switched roles compared to the first movie in 2014. Karen Gillan said: "It's now as if Nebula is a human being with humanity again. more affectionate of the two sisters".

Nebula's changes from the outside to the inside show that now she is free from Thanos' hand, she can live her life the way she wants. It can be said that this is the first time in Nebula's life that she is free and chooses a happier life.

"I think an important part of healing is helping others heal," says Karen Gillan. And that's what Karen saw her character Nebula do in Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3.

Love still doesn't forget the mission

Behind the scenes of Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3, Karen Gillan says she forgot she scheduled a couples therapy session with her husband. So Karen logged into Zoom, participated in an online discussion with almost all of Nebula's makeup still intact: Blue ski.n, hairless head... It is known that Karen took about four hours to make up. into Nebula. Therefore, it seems that it is more reasonable to keep the green ski.n than to remove it and redo it.
