Zoe Saldana

Another comic book heroine on this list is none other than Gamora herself, Zoe Saldana. Zoe initially started her acting career as a theater actress. She later transitioned to TV after earning a guest role in a 1999 episode of Law & Order. The following year, she made her film debut in the film Center Stage. However, it was not until 2009 that Zoe officially joined the ranks of Hollywood A-listers after being cast as Neytiri in James Cameron’s Avatar. The role solidified her reputation in the industry and opened up more doors for bigger projects.

Five years after starring in the big-budget sci-fi franchise, Zoe also became a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe by portraying Gamora in the Guardians of the Galaxy. Today, Zoe is considered one of Hollywood’s bonafide leading ladies and one of this generation’s biggest stars. We’re confident that her acting credit will grow even bigger in the years to come.
