Marvel and Doctor Who star Karen Gillan has ditched her famous ginger locks in a stunning – albeit temporary – hair transformation.
The actor, who plays Nebula in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, posted on Instagram Stories to unveil a new look, showcasing a darker colour as she wrote: “She’s a dark hair girl now.”
The look didn’t last long, however, with the star posting a follow-up selfie leaning back into a sink with her trademark colour showing once more, writing: “Well that was short lived. She’s a ginger again.”

Gillan has played Nebula in several franchises across the MCU, appearing in Thor: Love and Thunder and Avengers: Endgame in addition to a larger role in the Guardians of the Galaxy series.
The most recent entry in the series, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, was released earlier this year, with Gillan revealing that she got into trouble on the set of the superhero film.
“I've decided to make this vlog, because I essentially snuck my iPad onto the set of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 and decided to film all of this behind-the-scenes footage, and I totally got in trouble for doing it,” she said in a video on her YouTube channel.

“I haven't really seen that many behind-the-scenes Marvel things, but I have to assume I have gotten about as close as you can possibly get to showing how you make one of these movies.
“I took my camera first thing in the morning until the last thing at night over multiple days of filming. It was meant to be a day in the life but I enjoyed it so much it turned into a week. I hope that you enjoy this sneaky peek into what it's like spending the week playing Nebula.”
All three Guardians of the Galaxy movies and The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special are streaming on Disney+.
