‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2’ will be ‘better’ ‘funnier’ than ‘GOTG’ as Karen Gillan’s ‘deals with stuff’
While discussing her as-yet-untitled directional debut (which was called Tupperware Party) Karen Gillan spoke with THR about various upcoming projects, but fans will be eager to learn anything about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
“I’m so excited for people to see it! I just feel like it’s all of the best elements of the first one, just amplified,” Gillan said, contrasting it with the first film.
“It’s even better – it’s funnier, the music’s even better … the second album is a blinder. It’s great. And in the first one everyone was being established. Now that that’s out of the way, you really get to delve into all of their dilemmas and things like that. I think family would really be the main theme of the thing. And my character Nebula is dealing with a whole lot of stuff there – we see a whole new side to her. A much more human side, actually, where we understand how truly awful and difficult her daddy issues are.”
Gillan confirms that Nebula will be…well, Nebula, grumpy.
“Oh, absolutely! But we’re going to find out why.”
Of course, Gillan doesn’t say much, but isn’t shy about showing up in Avengers: Infinity War.
“Yeah, she’s making a cheeky appearance there. I don’t know how much I’m allowed to say, but I’m pretty happy with how much she gets to do.”
Gillan also talks about her role and skimpy outfit in Jumanji, check that out HERE
Star-Lord (Chris Pratt) is revealed to actually be the son of Ego, the Living Planet played by Kurt Russell. Zoe Saldana’s Gamora had an entire arc revolving around her efforts to break free of her adopted dad Thanos and sister Nebula, so expect further clarification and development there.
Dave Bautista will be back as Drax with Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel voicing Rocket and Groot.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is in theaters May 5.
