Gemma Chan has revealed a pretty drastic makeover for her Captain Marvel role.

The Humans actress will play the villainous Doctor Minn-Erva in the forthcoming MCU film and, taking to Twitter, Chan announced that she has now wrapped filming on the movie, as well as revealing her new look.

So, it looks like we can expect a much shorter - and thoroughly badass - hairdo from the actress when Captain Marvel hits screens next year.

Unfortunately, we'll have to wait to see her costume in full.

"Thanks for the ride, Marvel," she said. "#captainmarvel #marvelstudios #marvel #bts #thatsawrap."

So, what's the deal with Doctor Minn-Erva, who Chan is playing in the Captain Marvel film?

Well, in the comics, Doctor Minn is a geneticist of the Kree race of hostile aliens.

She is also a frequent nemesis of Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers' (Brie Larson) mentor Mar-Vell, who is played in the upcoming movie by Jude Law.
