Zoe Saldana is convinced the Guardians of the Galaxy will return because it would be a “a huge loss for Marvel” if they didn’t.
The actor played Gamora in three stand-alone Guardians films as well as several Avengers movies. However, it’s not yet known whether the superhero space team will be back for another installment. Saldana is convinced they will return to the big screen.
“I would think it would be a huge loss for Marvel if they didn’t find a way to bring back the Guardians of the Galaxy‘,” she explained during an appearance on “The Playlist.”
“It’s just such a fan-favorite group of misfits, you know? And then at the helm, they had a voice like [writer/director] James Gunn’s writing, which is just so marvelous for and very specific for this genre,” she added.
Saldana insisted that her character Gamora will probably be back, but she’s unlikely to play her again.
“I mean, so far, I think that [Gamora is done] for me, but I don’t think Gamora has gone for good … I would be the first one in the first row to sort of celebrate when the Guardians of the Galaxy come back,” she added.
It comes after Saldana admitted she would be happy to return to the Star Trek franchise for a fourth turn as Lieutenant Nyota Uhura.
“I mean, I heard what you heard in the trades. I just heard they’re gearing up to do a new one with a younger [cast], sort of, take on it … I don’t know if it’s from the before or the after, but that they really still hope to grab all of us veterans and bring us back for one last round,” the Guess Who star said to ComicBook.com.
“Listen, I know it’s a lot to wrangle a whole bunch of people with busy schedules. But working with J.J. Abrams, and for J.J. Abrams at Bad Robot, was always just a wonderful and beautiful experience for me. So, if I get to do that one last time, I would be so grateful,” she added.
