Saldana worked in science fiction films, beginning in 2009 with her first of multiple appearances as Nyota Uhura in the Star Trek film series and her first appearance as Neytiri in the Avatar film series. She portrayed Gamora in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, beginning with Guardians of the Galaxy (2014).[1] Due to her appearances in some of the highest-grossing films of all time, such as Avatar and Avengers: Endgame, Saldana is the second highest-grossing film actress of all time, as of 2019.[2] Her films grossed more than $11 billion worldwide.[3]

Early life

Saldana was born June 19, 1978, in Passaic, New Jersey.[4][5][6] Her father, Aridio Saldaña,[7] was of Dominican and Haitian descent,[8] while her mother, Asalia Nazario, is Puerto Rican with some Lebanese ancestry.[9][10][11] With regard to her racial identity, Saldana stated, "There's no one way to be black. I'm black the way I know how to be."[12] The majority of her early childhood was in Jackson Heights, New York. She was raised bilingual, speaking English and Spanish. She has two sisters, Cisely and Mariel.[13] Their father died in a vehicle wreck around her ninth birthday, and their mother moved with the children to the Dominican Republic.[13]

Saldana discovered her love of dance in the Dominican Republic, then enrolled in the ECOS Espacio de Danza Academy studying forms of dance,[5][13][14][15] but describes ballet as her passion.[13][16] She told Vanity Fair she quit ballet because she did not "have the feet" and had too much pride and ambition to just be in the corps de ballet.[16] The family returned to New York city after her sophomore year at Newtown High School.[16][17] In 1995, she performed with the Faces theater group in Brooklyn,[18] with plays providing positive messages for teens via themes dealing with issues such as substance abuse and adolescent sex. During these years, she performed with the New York Youth Theater; her appearance in their production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat led a talent agency to recruit her. Her dance training and her acting experience helped her land her first film role, playing ballet student Eva Rodriguez in Center Stage (2000).[5][14]

Career

Beginnings

Saldana at Hollywood Life Magazine's Annual Breakthrough Awards in 2007

Saldana was a member of Faces after her exposure in an episode of Law & Order (titled "Refuge, Part 2") in 1999.[19] Saldana's first film role was in Center Stage (2000), directed by Nicholas Hytner, about dancers at the fictitious American Ballet Academy in New York city. She appeared in the Britney Spears vehicle Crossroads (2002). The film earned negative reviews from critics, but was a box-office success.[20][21] Saldana starred in the comedy-drama Drumline (2002), alongside Nick Cannon, earning mixed reviews.[22][23]

In Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), she played Anamaria, a pirate joining Will Turner and Mr. Gibbs for a chance to confront Jack Sparrow for stealing her ship. She appeared in The Terminal as Dolores Torres, an immigration officer and Star Trek fan, a role helping Saldana during her portrayal in the Star Trek reboot (2009).[24] In 2004, she had roles in Haven and Temptation; both earned little-to-no box-office success.

In 2005, Saldana appeared in Constellation, Guess Who with Ashton Kutcher, and Dirty Deeds. She starred in the romantic comedy-dramas Premium (2006) and After Sex (2007).[25] Saldana starred in Blackout, a television film set in New York city during the Northeast Blackout of 2003. The film premiered at the 2007 Zurich Film Festival[26] and debuted on BET in 2008.[27] Saldana had a supporting role as Angie Jones in the action thriller Vantage Point (2008).[28]

Breakthrough roles, Avatar and Guardians of the Galaxy

Saldana appeared in two roles in 2009, raising her profile considerably.[14] She played Nyota Uhura in Star Trek.[29] The film's director J. J. Abrams asked Saldana to play the role because he enjoyed her work. Saldana never saw the original series, although she portrayed a Trekkie in The Terminal (2004), but agreed to play the role after Abrams complimented her. She met with Nichelle Nichols to understand the creation of Uhura's background and name of the character.[30] Saldana's mother was a Star Trek fan, leaving voice-mails during filming, advising on the role.[31] Steven Spielberg taught her the Vulcan salute five years earlier while he directed her in The Terminal.[24] Star Trek (2009) was a box-office success earning $385.7 million.[32]

Saldana's second high-profile film in 2009 was James Cameron's Avatar portraying the indigenous hunter Neytiri. Avatar was well-received by critics, accumulating an approval rating of 83% on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.[33] It grossed $2.7 billion worldwide to become the highest-grossing film of all time,[34] as well as in the United States and Canada. It also became the first film to gross more than $2 billion worldwide.[35] The film was nominated for ten Saturn Awards, and won all ten at the 36th Saturn Awards ceremony. Saldana's Saturn Award for Best Actress win marked a rare occurrence for an all-CG character.[36]

Saldana at the 82nd Academy Awards (2010)

In 2010, Saldana performed in The Losers as Aisha al-Fadhil, a native Bolivian woman. For the role, she was required to gain weight to carry weapons for eight hours a day.[37] In 2010, she appeared in Takers, Death at a Funeral, and Burning Palms. Her television ad for Calvin Klein's "Envy" line debuted in 2010.[38] In 2011, Saldana starred in the romantic comedy The Heart Specialist, and portrayed assassin Cataleya Restrepo in the crime drama Colombiana. Although the latter film earned negative reviews from critics, Saldana's performance was praised.[39]

In 2012, she appeared in the romantic drama The Words, earning negative reviews from critics with little success at the box-office.[40][41]

In 2013, Saldana reprised her role as Uhura in Star Trek Into Darkness, the sequel to the Star Trek re-boot. Like the previous film, it was a box-office success, ending its North American theatre run with a box office total of $228,778,661, placing it as the 11th highest-grossing film for 2013.[42] It earned $467,365,246 worldwide, ranking it in 14th place for 2013, and making it the highest-grossing film of the franchise.[43] Saldana voiced her character in the 2013 release of the Star Trek video game.

In 2014, Saldana played Gamora in the hit Guardians of the Galaxy.[44][45] Saldana portrayed the Gamora character with make-up rather than computer generated imagery (CGI) or performance capture.[46] The film became the third highest-grossing film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, behind The Avengers and Iron Man 3.[47] It was the third highest-grossing 2014 film (behind Transformers: Age of Extinction and The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies), and the highest-grossing superhero film of 2014.[47][48]

The film earned positive reviews. Saldana was nominated for numerous awards including Critics' Choice Movie Award for Best Actress in an Action Movie, Favorite Action Movie Actress at the People's Choice Awards, and Best On-Screen Transformation at the MTV Movie Awards.[49][50]

In May 2014, she performed in Rosemary's Baby, a television adaptation of Ira Levin's horror novel. Saldana also co-produced the four-hour two-part show.[51] In 2014, Saldana was recognized by Elle magazine during The Women in Hollywood Awards, honoring women for achievements in film, spanning all aspects of the motion-picture industry, including acting, directing, and producing.[52]

2016–present

Saldana starred in Nina, an unauthorized biography about the jazz musician Nina Simone released in 2016. The film depicts the late singer's rise to fame and relationship with her manager Clifton Henderson. Simone's family were critical of the decision to cast her in the role.[53] In August 2020, Saldana apologized for taking on the role, saying “I’m so sorry. I know better today and I’m never going to do that again. She’s one of our giants and someone else should step up. Somebody else should tell her story.” [54] In 2016, she co-starred in the science-fiction sequel Star Trek Beyond released in July, and Ben Affleck's crime drama Live by Night released in December.[55]

Saldana returned as Gamora in the Guardians of the Galaxy sequel, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017) released in May.[56] She re-reprised the role in the sequel Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and in Avengers: Endgame released in April 2019.

Also in 2017, Saldana played Mrs. Mollé in I Kill Giants, Anders Walter's adaptation of Joe Kelly's graphic novel I Kill Giants. Shooting commenced in Ireland in September 2016.[57] Also that year, she appeared in My Little Pony: The Movie performing the voice of pirate parrot Captain Celaeno.

She will re-reprise her role as Neytiri in the sequels Avatar 2 and Avatar 3 scheduled for 2021 and 2023 respectively.[58]

In March 2013, Saldana began dating Italian artist Marco Perego.

Their children would be Perego-Saldana.[66] Saldana and Perego have three sons, twins born in November 2014[67] and the third born in February 2017.[68][69] Saldana has stated her children will be multi-lingual because she and her husband speak Spanish and English around them.[70]

In July 2016, during an interview with Net-a-Porter's The Edit, Saldana revealed she has Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease, along with her mother and sisters. To combat the effects of this disease, Saldana said she and her husband adhere to a gluten- and dairy-free diet.[71]
