Surprise! Karen Gillan is going to be a mom!
The 36-year-old actress, best known for her roles in Doctor Who and Guardians of the Galaxy, announced that she is pregnant with her first child while stepping out for the premiere of her new movie The Life of Chuck held during the 2024 Toronto Film Festival on Friday night (September 5) at the Princess of Wales Theatre in Toronto, Canada.
Karen debuted her cute baby bump in a yellow dress as she attended the premiere alongside co-stars Tom Hiddleston, Kate Siegel, Annalise Basso, Taylor Gordon, Matthew Lillard, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Q’orianka Kilcher along with director Mike Flanagan and author Stephen King, who wrote the book that the movie is based on.
This will be the first child for Karen and husband Nick Kocher, who have been married since 2022.
Here’s the movie’s synopsis via TIFF: “The world feels like it’s ending and everybody’s saying goodbye to Chuck. Wherever Marty (Ejiofor) goes, he can’t get away from Charles Krantz (Hiddleston). His face is showing up on billboards, window signs — even TV commercials. What’s so special about this seemingly ordinary accountant and why does he warrant such a sendoff? Their connection includes Marty’s ex-wife (Gillan), her co-worker, his neighbor, and just about everyone else they know. Chuck’s life story soon begins to unravel in front of us, going back to a childhood with grandfather Albie (Mark Hamill), who teaches him about accounting and passes on a love for dancing, all the while keeping him from a prophetic secret in the attic.”
