There has been a bit amount of news here and there when it comes to Marvels' Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but not much in the way of Nebula (Karen Gillan), adoptive daughter of Thanos and adoptive sister of Gamora. The relationship between them both was explored fairly in Guardians of the Galaxy, but now that Gamora has officially joined the "good" side, what does that mean in terms of their relationship between the sisters in the sequel?
Comic Book Resources recently spoke to Karen Gillan during the premiere of "The Big Short" about her role in the Guardians of the Galaxy sequel. When asked about whether or not she has received a script for the film, Gillan stated, "I have! I took it in my hands, because they don't send it over by email; they deliver it by hand and it was so cool. I was so excited, and I ran upstairs, and I put on the soundtrack, the Awesome Mixtape 2, and then got into it. It's so good." It sounds like that the script must be in its final drafts if they're handing them out to the actors. It also sounds like that the Awesome Mixtape Vol. 2 is officially done and put together for the sequel. She was then asked about what she was excited about most plotwise when it came to her character. "I think what I'm really excited about it delving into the sisterly relationship between Gamora and Nebula. I think that we're going to see a little bit more of that, and it's going to be a bit more fleshed out." It's interesting to hear that we'll be getting more character and relationship development between the sisters. It is something to look forward to.
One of the most taxing aspects of films like these is the countless hours of sitting in a makeup chair and the uncomfortable costumes. Gillan also spoke about how ready she was this time around. "I kind of... I was mentally prepared to go through it again. It's so cool. The finished product is so cool that it's just so worth it when I see it at the end." She definitely sounds ready to go at it again. She finished off talking about Director James Gunn and his enthusiasm for the sequel. "'Infectious' is the word. James Gunn is the most enthusiastic. He's on this natural high the whole time. And it just makes us so excited about it. He just knows the world inside out. He's so passionate about it. The whole thing has come from him. It's totally his vision. It hasn't been compromised at all. It's completely down to him. So that's the most exciting thing." Are you excited to see the daughters of Thanos go at it again?
