Karen Gillan steps out as Al Capone to promote new gangster role

Actress Karen Gillan stepped out as Al Capone to promote her latest role as a ­ mobster assassin.

The Jumanji star swapped her crop top and hiking boots for a slick 20s ­Mafia-inspired navy pinstripe suit and dark shades.

Action thriller Gunpowder Milkshake also stars Lena Headey and Angela Bassett and has an almost all female cast.

Karen, 33, teased: “Ready to see some women wreak absolute havoc?”

In a nod to cult classics such as Quentin ­Tarantino’s Kill Bill and the BBC’s ­Killing Eve, the Inverness-born actress is one of an elite sisterhood of assassins.

Sam, played by the former Dr Who star, is a contract killer who goes rogue trying to protect a young girl being hunted by her former Mafia-style employers.

The riotous trailer was released last week as Karen revealed how she rewarded herself with Irn-Bru after tough training sessions learning how to box.
