‘I’m Obsessed With…:’ Zoe Saldana Reveals Hair Ripping Scene Was her Idea In Emilia Perez; READ

As a devoted admirer of Zoe Saldana’s captivating performances, I have to say that her dedication to her craft is simply extraordinary. In Emilia Perez, she not only breathes life into her character but also adds her unique creative touch – even going as far as suggesting the memorable hair-pulling scene! Her passion for her characters transcends the screen and makes us feel like we’re on this journey with her.

It seems that Zoe Saldana really infuses creativity into her acting roles, as demonstrated by her recent project, Emilia Perez. Interestingly, the actress disclosed that the iconic hair-pulling scene in this venture was actually her own idea.

Saldana disclosed this detail during her interview with Kate Winslet on Variety’s Actors on Actors series. In the movie in question, when all characters are seen singing, dancing, and balancing on tables in the ballroom, Saldana’s character, Rita Mora Castro from Avatar, reaches out to a blonde woman and removes a piece of her hair extension.

During the interview, Saldana expressed that in that particular scene, her character was deeply drawn to another and desired to emulate her. Now, as if reminiscing, she mentioned asking if she could physically interact with her character, recalling a moment when a background artist granted her permission to do so.

As an over-the-moon fan, I can’t help but share this amusing anecdote: In the heat of Marvel filmmaking, there I was, all fired up, when they’d say, “We might need her to fill out a form,” and I’d respond, “But she said I could touch her!” Of course, I’m referring to the magical moment when the crew agreed to my whimsical idea of touching the background actress’s hair. Quite a memorable day on set, if I do say so myself!

She pondered over it, musing, “We all seemed to shiver with excitement, as if saying, ‘Let’s definitely move forward,'” and further commented, “The actress was fully involved in every aspect.

In the film, Emilia Perez has been highly commended for numerous impactful scenes. Moreover, it’s worth noting that this project has earned an impressive ten Golden Globe nominations according to People magazine.

According to the report, during a private interview on December 9th, the artist discussed informing her spouse and other confidants following the news of her Golden Globe nomination.

Saldana expressed that it was “extremely moving” and admitted that she couldn’t fully express her longing for it since she no longer expected it would occur in her life. However, she conveyed a sense of gratitude as she described having an “out-of-body” experience.

Saldana shared that she learned the news while still with her mother, but chose to inform her husband, Marco Perego, before anyone else, explaining, “My husband was already awake, he was definitely awake, so I reached out to him first and foremost.” Additionally, she disclosed that she also contacted her team in Los Angeles and New York.
