How Zoe Saldana Transforms Into Gamora

Zoe Saldana is no stranger to playing different life forms from other planets in movies. She famously played Neytiri in 2009’s Avatar, and you wouldn’t recognize Saldana as the character because she is transformed into a blue warrior from another planet.

Saldana has since moved from the color blue to green in MCU’s Guardians of the Galaxy. She plays the green-skinned alien assassin Gamora and has fast become a fan-favorite among Guardians of the Galaxy and Marvel fans.

But is her transformation as Gamora the same as when she transformed into Neytiri? Here’s how Zoe Saldana transforms into Gamora.

I just realized that zoe saldana is part of the two highest grossig film in cinema history. That's amazing

[kourtniebrianna]

Gamora:

*The only person who looks great without eyebrows.*

[Lolmeep]

Takes all that time to become green for real just so a giant purple CGI man can throw you off a cliff

[oliviakatz]

Peter Quill: Where is Gamora
Iron Man: I'll do you one better who is Gamora
Drax: I'll do you one better why is Gamora
Gamora: Cries* They never asked how is Gamora!

I think make-up artists could use more publicity. They deserve more credit, and I’d love to learn about their processes and stories in interviews.

It's impressive all the work that goes into these movies

[RilRil]

Is it weird that I find Gamora hotter than Zoe?😂

[CPLEE.]

Everybody always askes WHERE is Gamora, WHO is Gamora, or WHY is Gamora...But nobody askes HOW is Gamora.

[naughtyniffler]

I was going to comment "Why is Gamora?", until I realised there are already multiple comments about that. So...did you know that that line was improvised by Dave Bautista?

(SPOILER)



I really miss Gamora she was the best ;-; Beautiful and fierce.

[Queen_beulahOfficial]

If I had to do this every single day for each shot I'd just go green permanently

[P_Nut]

But still she should've gone right...

[i_sahilbhagat]

I dont find her hot but when she becomes gamora she is like my all time crush.

[victormunhozzz]

Her makeup and prosthetics are so well done I never thought about it while watching the movie, she just seemed and looked like she was really green!

[JohnFrankie]

Damn she's a *TRANSFORMER* didn't know about that...

[Jojuiced]

I can imagine Drax and Nebula’s makeup probably takes much longer to do than Gamora’s.

Proof that color doesn't determine your beauty
