Scots actress Karen Gillan poses with stunt double and fans can't tell who is who

Karen Gillan posted some snaps with her stunt double on Instagram, and fans can't quite tell who is who.

As her new movie Gunpowder Milkshake is set to be released next week, the Inverness-born actress decided to dedicate an Instagram post to her 'badass' stunt double Aurelia Agel by sharing multiple snaps of the pair hard at work.

The film is based around a group of all girl assassins and is said to be jam-packed with action - hence why crews drafted Aurelia in for some of the stunts that were a little too complex for the Avengers and Doctor Who actress.

In her post, she wrote: "Me and my insanely tough/fast/extremely dangerous/just as goofy as me Stunt Double @aurelia_agel. She looks like Brigitte Bardot…if Brigitte Bardot could kill you.

"She trained me and then stretched me every day. She’s so badass I would walk in from my lunch break and she’d be wrestling the stunt guys. Just for fun.

"Thanks for everything Aurelia! #gunpowdermilkshake out July 14th in cinemas and on @netflix!!!"

And many fans were absolutely loving the snaps, and couldn't believe how much they looked alike.

One wrote: "Whoa, I see two Amy pond."

Another added: "Wow. Look a like!"

While one said: "Now there’s two of them?!"

Another wrote: "Double the Karens, double the fun!"

In the film, Karen gets caught up in protecting an eight-year-old girl from a secret society of baddies.

During the making of the film, Karen had to undergo some intense training and despite having bulked up for Jumanji, the 33-year-old said that her training intensified for the film.

She said at the time: "Maybe I'll get a little more in shape because there are even more fight sequences for that."

In the clip of the movie Karen can be seen high kicking, walking on the ceiling, and being dragged along the floor in fight sequences.

She also has some massive shoot outs, culminating in some dirty action - which we assume Aurelia was drafted in for.

Karen joked: "Our milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and then we swiftly dispose of them."
