According to actor Seth Green, Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and Nebula (Karen Gillan) will be Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
The forthcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is the third installment in the very successful Guardians of the Galaxy series, based on the Marvel comic book characters of the same name.
Little is known about the picture, but Howard, The Duck’s Seth Green, has revealed that it will follow Zoe Saldana’s Gamora and Karen Gillan’s Nebula.
Thanos, the crazy giant, reared the two sisters and prepared them to be the ultimate murderers.
Nebula and Gamora
Nebula was introduced in Guardians of the Galaxy as harboring animosity against Thanos and Gamora. The two sisters had sparring sessions in which Nebula always lost, resulting in Thanos replacing Nebula’s bodily parts with a mechanical component to “better” her.
It has now progressed to the point where Nebula is half mechanical and half-human.
Green made the statement in an interview with ComicBook.Com, where he confessed that he doesn’t know whether Howard the Duck would appear in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
The actress then went on to add, “The only thing I know is that it’s Gamora and Nebula’s tale, that it’s the sisters’ story, that it’s the girls’ story. So I’m not sure whether it’s a precursor or if it appears in the fragmented timeline that follows the Time Heist. To be honest, I don’t know much about it.”
Fans should take this with a grain of salt for the time being since it is far from a confirmation. Keep in mind that if his character isn’t engaged, there’s no way he could know too much about the screenplay, as he acknowledged. It’s also possible that this is an earlier version of the finished script.
A film about the two sisters has been in the works for a long time. The two sisters now have nothing between them in a world where Thanos is no longer a menace. Nebula’s animosity against Gamora sprang from a sincere place.
Gamora turning her back on her sister by winning every sparring match, causing Thanos to punish Nebula, would naturally create animosity on Nebula’s side.

What Nebula looked like before Thanos
The second episode of What If? revealed what Nebula looked like before Thanos’ experimentation. “What If… T’Challa Became a Star-Lord?” was the title of the show, and it was funny because it made the cosmos a lot nicer place than it was when Peter Quill was Star-Lord.
The reason Nebula was no longer a cyborg was because T’Challa persuaded Thanos to abandon his plan to use the Infinity Stones to wipe off half of the universe’s inhabitants.
Thanos had no need for two assassins because he abandoned the mission. Thus Nebula was never changed, and Thanos never went to Gamora’s planet to take control or abduct her.
That element of Nebula’s character was hinted at in the films, but in the primary MCU live-action chronology, viewers never got to see her before she became a cyborg.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will be the ideal vehicle for furthering her character and fleshing out that long-awaited discussion between the two sisters, particularly given that they’re from separate realities.
The third installment of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise is set to hit cinemas on May 5, 2023.
