Karen Gillan is about to be out of this world again.
The Scottish actress shared in a recent Instagram Story that she’ll be reprising her Marvel Cinematic Universe role as Nebula in the highly anticipated “Thor: Love and Thunder,” Digital Spy reported.
The development came after the “Gunpowder Milkshake” star, 33, shared that she’d landed in Sydney, Australia, where the superhero flick due out next year, directed by Oscar winner Taika Waititi, is filming.
Gillan, also a writer-director, then opened up her Story to a recent trend on Instagram in which a user prompts followers to make assumptions about them, which they’ll confirm or correct.
After receiving a submission that said the “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” actress was “wearing a wig” to prepare for a role, Gillan replied: “I’m not, this is the REAL DEAL. This is my hair. I cut it the other day in preparation for Nebula, so that we don’t have to get so much hair into the bald cap because I have so much hair, it’s unbelievable. It’s just so thick.”
Gillan debuted as Nebula in 2014's “Guardians of the Galaxy,” and reprised the role in that film’s 2017 sequel, as well as in 2018's “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Avengers: Endgame” the following year.
She’ll also play Nebula in the upcoming Disney+ series “What If...?,” as well as the third installment of the “Guardians of the Galaxy” films.
