In a November 2022 interview with Women’s Wear Daily, Zoe Saldana revealed that her time making franchise films and sequels has resulted in her feeling unable to grow as an actor, to hone her craft, or to challenge herself. “I feel that for the last 10 years of my life, I’ve been just stuck. I felt stuck doing these franchises,” she told the outlet. “I’m very grateful for the opportunities that they provided, from collaborating with amazing directors and getting to meet cast members that I consider friends […] But it also meant that I felt artistically stuck in my craft of not being able to expand or grow or challenge myself by playing different sorts of genres and different roles.”
We know that after “Avatar: The Way of Water,” director James Cameron has plans for a third, fourth, and fifth movie (via IndieWire), but for a while, the future of the “Star Trek” movies seemed uncertain after the tragic death of Anton Yelchin, who played Chekhov. However, a fourth has been confirmed, per Variety, although, as of this writing, there’s no word of a release date.
Speaking with Entertainment Tonight in March 2022, Saldana said, “It’s bittersweet because we are coming together for a fourth time, and one of us is no longer with us. But we honestly feel that going back and keeping the ‘Star Trek’ family together is a way to really keep him alive in our thoughts and our hearts.”
