How Thanos' Endgame Death Has Changed Nebula Teased By Karen Gillan
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 star Karen Gillan has teased how Thanos' death in Avengers: Endgame changed Nebula in the upcoming film. The third chapter in the Guardians of the Galaxy series was intended to have been released shortly after Avengers: Endgame but, due to controversy surrounding writer-director James Gunn's firing and rehiring, as well as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the film's production and release was pushed back by years. The film is now slated to hit theaters on May 5, 2023.
Karen Gillan joined the MCU in the first Guardians of the Galaxy film in 2014. She played the blue-skinned cyborg alien Nebula, the adoptive daughter of the mad Titan Thanos (Josh Brolin), and adoptive sister to Gamora (Zoe Saldaña). After her defeat on Xandar at the hands of Gamora, who wanted nothing more than a sister in her, Nebula returned with a vengeance in the sequel, «besting» Gamora in combat and finally reconciling with her. They teamed up to destroy the Celestial Ego (Kurt Russell) and save Peter Quill (Chris Pratt). Nebula then sets her sights on Thanos and attempts to kill him in Avengers: Infinity War, but fails and is used as a pawn to have Gamora deliver the Titan the location of the Soul Stone. Following the snap, Nebula mourns the loss of her sister and joins the Avengers in a quest to restore the universe.
