Zoe Saldaña looks back on reshooting ‘Avengers’ with Russo brothers
Zoe Saldaña recently explained why she wanted to reshoot Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame with the Russo brothers.
Zoe said on the “Know Your Line” game variety show, “I wish we could go back and reshoot what the character Gamora went through in the Avengers movie.”
She continued, “I didn’t really understand what the Russo brothers[were doing]. They’re great filmmakers, and the opportunity they gave me was once in a lifetime. I’m always grateful that they spotlighted Gamora in this way in their films.”
However, the Guardians of the Galaxy star admitted: “I wish I could have gone back and done it again and tried a little harder because it was a great opportunity to play a daughter who has issues with her father.”
“And whether or not she has a chance to reconcile or just walk away. It would have been a great opportunity if I had been a little more conscious at the time,” the 46-year-old said.
Elsewhere in the interview, Zoe talked about what it was like to join Marvel.
“I know this is a Marvel movie, and we don’t want to use words like ‘deep’ and ‘Marvel’ in the same sentence, but I want to, and I want to be part of a great movie.” I’m very proud to be a part of “It caters to young audiences and inspires young viewers,” she noted.
Actress Emilia Perez said, “What[James Gunn]was doing was really special. He gave these characters the space to be loved and find a family in friendship.”
“Looking back on it now, it was a really important movie,” she added.
