Zoe Saldaña has recently explained why she wants to reshoot Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame with the Russo Brothers.
Speaking to Variety for a game of Know Their Lines, Zoe said, “I wish I could go back and reshoot what Gamora character was going through in the ‘Avengers’ movies.”
She continued, “I was not quite understanding what the Russo Brothers [were doing]. They’re excellent movie-makers and the opportunity they gave me was of a lifetime. To highlight Gamora in such a way in their movies is something I’ll always be grateful.”
However, the Guardians of the Galaxy star admitted, “I wish I could go back and redo it so I could push a little harder because it was such a great opportunity to play a daughter having issues with a dad.”
“And whether or not she’s having this opportunity to reconciliate or to simply just walk away. That would’ve been a great opportunity had I been a little more aware of it then,” remarked the 46-year-old.
Elsewhere in the interview, Zoe shared how she felt on joining Marvel.
“I know it’s a Marvel movie, and we don’t like to use words like ‘deep’ and ‘Marvel’ in the same sentence, but I like to, and I take great pride in knowing that I was a part of great films that cater to a younger audience and that inspires a younger audience,” she pointed out.
The Emilia Pérez actress mentioned, “What [James Gunn] was doing was something really special. We were supposed to be these rejects that came with childhood traumas and disabilities and mental issues. He gave these characters space to be loved and to find a family within their friendship.”
“It was a really important film now that I look back on it,” she added.
