Whether she’s speaking out against Hollywood’s sexism or kicking butt on film sets, Zoe Saldana has a talent for no-holds-barred moments – and inspiring the masses in the process. Here, some of the most memorable words from the starlet.
ON ACTING
“I want to be in the small percentage of women who don’t settle for conventional roles.”
“You need 100% commitment; you have to be willing to wake up every morning knowing you’re going to practice for eight hours straight.”
“I grew up loving action movies and films that were set in supernatural, unimaginable places. So I take being a woman in the film industry who is able to do action movies very seriously, because I’m making the kind of movies that I wanted to watch as a kid, and that inspired me and are the reason as to why I’m here.”
“I’m a sci-fi girl. If I can have anything in life, I’d want tons of great science-fiction movies and stories. It’s so progressive, beautiful and imaginative.”
“As an artist, I like working with filmmakers that have the guts to imagine the unimaginable. Those are the kind of radicals that I identify with.”
