She went on to say that he never got back to her, so she reached out to him on Twitter instead. "I DMed him on Twitter saying, 'Hi, your tweets are really funny. I’m Karen, by the way', It wasn’t very interesting. I hadn’t really read his tweets."
Gillan, who was recently on screen as Madeline in TV series Douglas is Cancelled will next be seen on the big screen in The Life of Chuck.
The movie, which is based on a short story by Stephen King, stars Tom Hiddleston as Charles Krantz, whose life story is told in reverse. The film starts with Chuck's death aged 39 from a brain tumour and then looks backwards through his life.
The Life of Chuck does not yet have a theatrical release date.
