That Avatar: The Way of Water has been a fantastic success is no question, and now that it has grossed over two billion dollars, a new milestone has been reached. Zoe Saldana will now be officially the first actress to appear in four films that have all grossed over two billion dollars.
Zoe is of course proud of how her film project has performed but in one interview with Women’s Wear daily, she tells us that for the past ten years she has felt a bit stuck in the same pattern because of franchise films.
“I’m very grateful for the opportunities that they provided, from collaborating with amazing directors and getting to meet cast members that I consider friends and getting to play a role that fans, especially children, love. But it also meant that I felt artistically stuck in my craft of not being able to expand or grow or challenge myself by playing different sorts of genres and different roles.”
The previous films in which she participated and which achieved similar success are Avatar (2009), Avengers: Endgame (2019) and Avengers: Infinity War (2018). In addition to her role as Neytiri in both Avatar films, we have also been able to enjoy her fantastic performance as Gamora in the Guardian of the Galaxy series as well as Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. Her latest film Avatar: The Way of Water recently passed mark two billion dollars in profit and thereby beat Spiderman: No Way Home which now ended up in seventh place of the biggest films ever.
