Karen Gillan, I liked her as Nebula in the Guardians of the Galaxy / Avengers sagas, and she was fun as the Lara Croft-esque avatar in Jumanji, I haven’t seen the sequel yet.
I’ve seen 7 of the 15 films on the chart, favorites are Guardians of the Galaxy 1 & 2, Avengers Infinity War & Endgame and Jumanji. I’ve also seen Oculus and The Big Short.
Nice work Bruce. Vote Up!
Hey Steve….thanks for checking out our Karen Gillan page. Tally count: Taylor 10 (a newbie to the tally contest), me 8 and you 7. As for Nebula….I have grown to like her character….at first I was not too impressed…but she grew on me. Like you, I enjoyed her in Jumanji 2….and have not seen Jumanji 3. My kids loved the last one….yet…..had no interest in seeing this on. I have seen all 7 of your movies…with Stuber being my last one, and the only one you have not seen. Good stuff as always.
I like her a lot. I think she has a very bright future. She is the best part of Jumanji:The Next Level. I have seen 10 of her movies. About to watch number 11, as I just bought a digital copy of Stuber.
Hey Taylor…..wow….your 10 is the highest total so far…I will be closing the gap soon….as All Creatures Here Below is in my stack of movies to watch….and I of course will be seeing Jumanji 3 in the near future…..so I bet in about 4 months it will be 11 for you and 10 for me. As for Stuber…it was ok….don’t blink …or you might miss Gillan’s role…lol. Good stuff.
HI BRUCE:
You seem to know more about important modern young stars than I do; so I always welcome your new pages on them as they provide me with a learning curve for which I’m grateful. 8 movies is a very respectable number for you to have seen considering that she has made only about 15.
Obviously the franchises are paying off for her and she seems to have such a diversity of talents that she is unlikely to become type-cast like poor old Tobor!
Hey Bob. I think with the exception of Dan, I watch the most new movies of all the regular commenters. I try to eventually see every major release that gets released in theaters. It might take me a few years but I normally end up seeing about 95% of all the new releases.I just got a Netflix account from my oldest daughter for Christmas. This is allowing me to catch up on movies that were previously unavailable to me, so watch out… LOL. Thanks for the feedback.
I have seen just one of Karen’s films: the first Guardians of the Galaxy offering. She is though undoubtedly a multi-medium performer and alongside her feature career she has;
1/been in 20 television productions between 2006 and 2018.
2/appeared in 6 short films between 2014 and 2019
3/made a music video in 2014
4/participated in 3 video games [2010/2011]
5/acted in two stage productions in 2011 and 2013, the latter one being on Broadway and called Time to Act.
IN THE PIPELINE for KAREN: (1) 2 feature films and a short at post-production stage (2) currently filming is a TV series What If? for 2021 release in which she provides the voice of Nebula, her Guardians of the Galaxy character (3) and she will again be Nebula in Guardians of Galaxy 3 at pre-production stage and scheduled for a 2021 release.
The lovely and very busy ‘WORK MARE’! Karen has already generated a net worth of $2 million according to the Celebrity Net Worth site; and IMDB credits her with 7 of the relatively minor acting awards and 19 nominations. Undoubtedly therefore among young modern actresses she is an ideal candidate for a Cogerson new page, so “Voted Up!”
Hey Bob. Thanks for the thoughts and one of the better younger actress is working today. I have seen eight of her movies, including six of them in theaters. She seems to be gaining momentum as time is passing. Good information on the other parts of her career. If she keeps making sequels to her blockbusters, that net worth will keep on growing. Good stuff.
