Karen Gillan has become an international superstar thanks to her role as Nebula in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and like many of her co-stars, she's managed to pivot from Marvel to another valuable blockbuster franchise. Gillan joined Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Kevin Hart and Jack Black in the Jumanji reboot Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle - and now she's coming back for the sequel film, Jumanji: The Next Level. Well the Jumanji 2 cast was in Mexico doing the press junket for the film, and Gillan's choice of wardrobe quickly went viral.

Take a lot at Guardians of the Galaxy and Avengers: Endgame star Karen Gillan, dressed in an outfiit that looks like it could be cosplay of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character, April O'Neil!

This being Hollywood and all, it's hard to know if Karen Gillan chose that outfit knowing what kind of buzz it would generate, or if it just happened to be a happy coincidence. Either way, the end effect is the same: Gillan's look went viral, sparking all kinds of hilarious fan-generated TMNT memes in response:

And, naturally, the picture has also inspired fans to nominate Gillan for the next Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie:

Would you like to see Karen Gillan play April O'Neil in a TMNT movie, or are you hoping for another go-around with Megan Fox?

Jumanji: The Next Level arrives in theaters on December 13th.
