Karen Gillan famously portrayed the character Nebula in the Marvel superhero science fiction film, Guardians of the Galaxy.
Gillan was cast in the iconic role in May 2013, with the movie officially premiering in August 2014. Her commitment to the character's distinct appearance was significant; she famously shaved her head completely bald for the part. This dedication not only helped bring Nebula's look to life on screen but also led to an interesting outcome: Marvel utilized Gillan's shaven hair to create a wig for her to wear during the production of the television series Selfie.
