Two actors played Megan in the movie M3GAN—here’s everything you need to know!
Even before the film’s release, the titular doll from new horror flick M3GAN has become something of a social media icon – and now she’s dancing her way into cinemas around the UK. M3GAN – or Model 3 Generative Android, to give her her full name – is the prototype of a brand-new artificially intelligent doll created by roboticist Gemma, which she fast-tracks into production when a tragedy leaves her suddenly caring for her young niece Cady.
At first, M3GAN seems like the perfect companion for the young girl, but it doesn’t take long for things to go horribly awry as the doll begins to develop a rather murderous mind of her own.
The doll is physically played by Amie Donald and voiced by Jenna Davis, while the cast for the film also includes Get Out and Girls star Allison Williams and The Haunting of Hill House’s Violet McGraw – read on for the full list of actors and characters.
