Karen Gillan talks about how Nebula and Gamora’s relationship has changed in GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3

Gamora’s return is going to create a very interesting dynamic Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, mostly due to the fact that it’s a very different take on the character. A version that has been plucked out of time and has no real connection to anyone on the Guardian team… except his sister Nebula. But even this will not be the same.

Over the course of the first two Guardians films, Nebula and Zoe SaldanaThe Gamora’s somehow managed to strike a chord with each other after an epic sibling rivalry. Now it seems they will have to start from scratch, and that goes for the rest of the team as well.

During a recent interview with Fandango, Karen Gillan spoke about how Nebula and Gamora’s relationship has changed explaining that Nebula is the “scapegoated sibling in a toxic family dynamic,” she later joked, “Why am I so intense? You feel it yourself and it’s like, ‘Jesus’ “. She continued:

“It’s really funny because Nebula started out as a very sadistic, tortured, angry person and gradually she became a whole new being who can let love in and accept love and also start giving love. I think Gamora was definitely set back a bit and Nebula can definitely recognize that in her because she’s seen it in herself, so I think it’s about trying to feed Gamora where she knows she can – this is so confusing with time travel – where she would be in her future version”.

As for Gamora’s relationship with Peter Quill, Chris Pratt, who is also in the interview, shared his thoughts on Gamora and her relationship with Quill, saying:

“Because so many of the relationships Gamora has experienced and the growth she has had in her life have come from the events of Guardians of the Galaxy 1 and Guardians of the Galaxy [Vol.] 2 and this is all stuff that happened after the Gamora that we meet, so the evil, insane, psycho Gamora is a Gamora that we are not used to seeing, because she quickly sheds all that for the first two volumes. For example, your wonderful fight sequence and sister dynamic in volume 2, beautiful, beloved, these two tortured brothers who are given the opportunity to literally process all this damage and come out the other side healed and better for it , well, that’s out the window now. So here you are, you’re healed but she’s not, and same with Peter Quill and her, we have all these memories, these wonderful things, we’ve both grown so much. Well I did but she didn’t so how do you bring someone back from that? And you can?”

That’s the big question, and I’m not entirely convinced Quill will be able to win her heart back. Sometimes stories don’t have the happy ending we all want.

At Marvel Studios Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 our beloved band of misfits are settling down on Knowhere. But it’s not long before their lives are turned upside down by echoes of Rocket’s turbulent past. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him on a perilous mission to save Rocket’s life – a mission which, if not successfully completed, could lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them.
