Cameras are still rolling on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and on the heels of our first look at Dave Bautista (Drax) and Pom Klementieff (Mantis) on set, Karen Gillan has shared a new behind-the-scenes glimpse of her Nebula makeup to Instagram.
Though the Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle actress is covering the lower part of her face, it's clear to see that this "170th application" is designed to make Nebula look like she's been through the wars.
The cyborg Daughter of Thanos has taken a significant amount of damage over the course of her previous MCU adventures, so we wouldn't worry too much. That said, Gunn has previously suggested that fans should prepare to lose a beloved character or two in this trilogy capper!

GOTG Vol. 3 story details are still a closely guarded secret, but a few nuggets have been revealed over the past year or so. We do know that Gamora (Zoe Saldana) will be a big part of the movie, and a recent report indicated that her relationship with Nebula is going to be the main focus. Of course, this Gamora is a Variant of the original who doesn't know any of her teammates, so we can probably expect a very different dynamic between the "sisters" this time.
Saldana and Gillan will be joined by the returning Pom Klementieff (Mantis), Dave Bautista (Drax), Chris Pratt (Star-Lord), Sean Gunn (Rocket/Kraglin), and Sylvester Stallone as Stakar Ogord/Starhawk, with Will Poulter on board as Adam Warlock and Peacemaker actor Chukwudi Iwuji in an undisclosed role.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is set to hit theaters on May 23, 2023.
