Missing Link
Zoe Saldana is one of Hollywood ’s most sought - after actors , having star in such enfranchisement asAvatar , Star Trek , andGuardians of the Galaxy . She has previously lent her spokesperson to the animize moviesThe Book of LifeandMy Little Pony : The Movie . Her current persona is Adelina Fortnight , a free - tone adventurer , in the repair featureMissing Link .
So , Adelina was by far my favorite character . She ’s so adventurous and that ’s something that I bid that I could be too .
Zoe Saldana : Me too .
And in this picture show , she ’s an immigrant and she ’s also a widow . So , do you think she has something to prove in this movie ?
Zoe Saldana : I think she does . And she has something to prove to herself . And it ’s that she has what it takes to be autonomous , to experience her own itinerary . And she does n’t quite fuck that in the beginning when you conform to her .
And I recollect that ’s an significant message , especially for young girls growing up looking at something like that . I just believe she was such a strong character and that resonated with me . Now the other thing that I thought was so interesting about this pic is the entire process . From the voice work to the little puppets that they use . So , what was your initial reaction when you first realize the discharge project ?
Zoe Saldana : I ’m always beside myself . I always– I tend to have an out of soundbox experience with motion-picture show that I ’ve been in that are like this . That take so much time to make . From Missing Link to Avatar to even [ Guardians of the Galaxy ] . Once I see the closing result , one , I ’m so majestic to have been a part of it . I finger like , oh my God , I ca n’t trust I ’m a part of that . And two , I incline to forget that I was a part of it and I still go along for the journey . So , anyway , I wish it .
The dangerous undertaking behind this movie ’s trying to find a mythical creature . So , if you could devote your entire life to exploring , to going on adventures to obtain one mythical brute , which one would you choose to determine ? Or do you hope that subsist ?
Zoe Saldana : A unicorn .
Yes ! That ’s what I was think too .
Zoe Saldana : I love unicorn . I hump unicorns !
Where would you start off looking for a unicorn first of all ? Do you have a concept of where they ’d be ?
Zoe Saldana : No [ LAUGHS ] .
We ’re just going to go from one country to the next and be like , is there a unicorn ?
Zoe Saldana : I recollect I would start , I do n’t fuck , in like Ireland or England . I do n’t know why I thought that ’s where unicorns would live . perchance because I project a movie called Legend when I was a child . And it look like , from everybody ’s accent , that it was in England . So , I would start there .
That ’s a good answer for me . Now , I have to say I am a huge rooter of the Avengers . So , with what happened to Gamora on the last one , I cried . I was very upset .
Zoe Saldana : I ’m so sorry .
So , I desire to live is there any chance that you might see her again ?
Zoe Saldana : I do n’t know .
Am I going to remain to cry ?
Zoe Saldana : I hope not . I go for . I desire that she come in back , but I frankly do n’t know . And also , I ca n’t severalise you .
That ’s bonny . I ’ll cry in my bedroom when I get home . Now , we have prison term for a really quick biz . Have you ever play head Up before ?
Zoe Saldana : No .
Okay . So , Heads Up , it ’s this biz where you kind of have to give me clew to the Book that ’s on my sound and then I have to guess what it is . So , it has to do with the movie .
