In a self-deprecating post on Instagram, the 35-year-old actress shared a screenshot from a Zoom therapy session she had joined while still in full movie makeup.

The screenshot of the chat, which shows her face visibly blue, was captioned by Gillan in honor of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which was set to be released in theaters that week.

Gillan’s Guardians co-stars also chimed in on her Instagram post, with Pratt stating that it was the best and Saldana suggesting that it needs to be in a movie. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Gillan explained that she was running late for the session and had no time to take her makeup off. She had warned her therapist and husband that she was at work, so they had an inkling, but they weren’t fully prepared for what they saw when she logged on.

The actress also revealed that the therapist couldn’t stop laughing during the session, adding an emoji to the screenshot to keep her therapist anonymous. Gillan’s humorous take on the situation has given her fans another reason to love her.
