‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ star Zoe Saldana defends her Marvel Studios co-stars, as Hollywood elitists trash the MCU actors.
Sci-fi and fantasy actress Zoe Saldana responds to critics who say Marvel actors are selling out.
Ms. Saldana feels especially hurt by the insinuations, particularly because she feels her Marvel Studios co-stars have some of the biggest hearts in Hollywood. When they’re not acting in front of the camera, Ms. Saldana says they’re doing what they can to help the less fortunate in their community and throughout the world.

Additionally, Ms. Saldana says her co-stars understand their importance to their child and teen fans. In a way, they have a responsibility to reinforce the impressions young fans have of these characters. For Zoe Saldana and her Marvel co-stars, it’s a responsibility they take seriously.
“That actor takes time out of their life and sits down with that five-year-old and says, ‘I see you, I hear you, and you matter,’ Those elitists should be a little more cognizant about what playing a superhero means to a young child. Because you’re not just dissing me, you’re dissing what that child considers important in their world,” said Ms. Saldana.
