Zoe Saldana couldn't understand Gamora's arcAccording to the 46-year-old, she couldn't judge what Joe and Anthony Russo were doing with her character. "I was not quite understanding what the Russo Brothers [were doing]. They’re excellent filmmakers and the opportunity they gave me was of a lifetime. To highlight Gamora in such a way in their films is something I’ll always be grateful. 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." Zoe Saldana as Gamora in MCUZoe debuted as Gamora into the MCU in the first Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) directed by James Gunn. She went on to play the adopted daughter of Thanos in five Marvel movies, including 3 Guardians and 2 Avengers.The actor, who is currently the highest-grossing actress overall, stated that unlike popular notion, Marvel movies can be deep. "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," Zoe said.

Zoe's take on core of Guardians of the Galaxy franchise Guardians of the Galaxy also stars Chris Pratt (Star Lord), Dave Bautista (Drax), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Pom Klementieff (Mantis), Vin Diesel (Groot), and Bradley Cooper (Rocket). According to her, the Guardians franchise was "something really special" where they played characters who were not accepted by their societies."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 said.
