Gillan's co-stars were thoroughly entertained by the revelation.

\"THIS IS THE BEST,\" Chris Pratt, who plays Peter Quill/Star-Lord in the \"Guardians\" movies, wrote in the comments.

\"😂😂 this needs to be in a movie,\" wrote Zoe Saldana, who plays \"Gamora.\"

Pom Klementieff, who plays \"Mantis\" in the \"Guardians\" franchise, was similarly amused, writing, \"Hahahahahahahahahaha DEAD hahahahahahah.\"

The Scottish actress has been married to comedian Kocher since 2022.

On \"Good Morning America\" Thursday, Gillan shared more about \"Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3\" and her character, Nebula, whom she referred to as \"the blue one, the bold one.\"

\"She's really involved through the movie,\" said Gillan. \"She started off as a villain and now she's a full-blown Guardian, with a uniform and everything.\"

\"He said do an impression of Marilyn Monroe and Clint Eastwood because they are the same voice … and that informed my whole character.\" @karengillan shares the note director @JamesGunn gave to help her channel Nebula in #GOTGVol3. #GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3 pic.twitter.com/l6lRZM6XyI

She also revealed the tip that director James Gunn shared with her for Nebula's voice, which was to blend the breathiness of Marilyn Monroe and Clint Eastwood.

\"That informed my whole character,\" said Gillan.

\"Vol. 3\" is the last film in the \"Guardians of the Galaxy\" trilogy, something Gillan said was hard to come terms with.

\"It's the end for the Guardians. I don't even want to say that! I'm in denial! But, yes, it's the end,\" she said.

\"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3\" is out in theaters Friday.

Marvel is owned by Disney, the parent company of ABC News and \"Good Morning America.\"
