Zoe Saldana wanted to punch her n-ked co-star

Zoe Saldana is a popular Hollywood actress known for her stunning beauty, versatile performances, and graceful presence.

She has appeared in some of the most successful franchises of all time, including the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the Avatar franchise.

While she has played a wide range of characters across genres, one movie stands out for an awkwardly funny incident that occurred on set.

In 2010, Saldana starred in the dark comedy Death at a Funeral alongside actors like Chris Rock, Tracy Morgan, Peter Dinklage, and James Marsden.

She played the role of a young bride-to-be, while Marsden portrayed her fiancé.

During an interview with Parade, Saldana revealed an incident that caught her off guard and led her to warn Marsden.

According to Saldana, they were filming a scene where Marsden was supposed to be n^ked on the rooftop, and she had to open the window and say, “What are you doing?

Come back inside.” However, Marsden did not give her any warning that he had taken off his pants.

When Saldana opened the window, she saw more than she was expecting.

Saldana said that she tried her best not to look anywhere but Marsden’s eyes, and she warned him to alert her if he ever does anything like that again.

She even threatened to punch him if he did not give her a heads up before doing something similar.

Death at a Funeral is a remake of a 2007 British film of the same name, directed by Neil LaBute.

The movie follows the story of a family gathering for a funeral that ends up in arguments and the revelation of their dark secrets.

It received an average response from critics.

During the interview with Parade, Saldana shared that she learned how to keep a straight face and hold herself together while filming.

She found it challenging not to laugh at the jokes, but after doing the same scene multiple times, it stopped being funny to her.

“That’s the only way you can give your director one usable take where you aren’t breaking up,” she said.

Saldana would ask the director to do the scene multiple times until she could do it as required.

Saldana’s performance in Death at a Funeral showcases her versatility as an actress.

The movie is available on Amazon Prime, and fans can enjoy her comedic timing and chemistry with Marsden.

In conclusion, Zoe Saldana is a talented and accomplished actress who has portrayed a wide range of characters across various genres.

However, her experience on the set of Death at a Funeral shows that even the most experienced actors can be caught off guard.

Despite the awkward situation, Saldana was able to maintain her professionalism and deliver a great performance in the movie.
