The Scotland-born actress pauses, thinking she’s given a plot point away.

“I don’t know if she will. Maybe she won’t. I’m not saying anything. I just got really nervous I gave something away. So I’m going to stop.”

Just like Spider-Man actor Tom Holland, who also didn’t have a full script, Gillan, 31, was given very little detail ahead of time by directors Joe and Anthony Russo.

“The Russos tell you everything you need to know, so you’re not going in without the necessary information. But you’re just getting the stuff you need to know.”

For Gillan, who was recently listed as one of the most tracked female directors by IMDbPro users thanks to her work behind the camera on The Party’s Just Beginning, it’s been a thrill to see Nebula grow from a bit player in the Guardians of the Galaxy films into a character with a meaningful story arc.

“I look back to that first audition and how I really wanted to grab onto the story about her relationship with her sister (Gamora played by Zoe Saldana) and her father Thanos (Josh Brolin). That was the engine that drove her. Getting to explore that in a really explosive way has been the best part of this whole experience.”

Trying to say as little as possible, Gillan, who returns to screens later this year in Jumanji 3 alongside Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart, spoke about being a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Fans are excited for Avengers: Endgame, no one knows who’s going to live and who’s going to die. What can you tell us?

What can I tell you? Here’s the part where I try to answer a question without saying anything at all. I think we’re warning people to bring tissues and diapers into the cinema (laughs). The diapers are because it’s over three hours long and you need to not leave because it’s going to be that good. I think you can expect incredible fight sequences, which is not a shocker. It’s going to be this amazing grand finale, and if you’ve been following these characters for the last 10 years, I think you’re going to leave overly satisfied.
