The great thing is that all the producers and creators involved in the projects that I&#8217;ve done\u2014<em>Avatar, Star Trek<\/em>, and <em>Guardians<\/em> \u2014 they&#8217;re very good people. So they&#8217;ve been very understanding, especially with what&#8217;s happening in my personal life. I&#8217;ve gotten nothing but support. To know that we are getting to that place where women can have that support from male driven workforces is \u2014 I have to say, it&#8217;s very inspiring.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not like a lack of support would stop Saldana though, from doing what she needs to do. &#8220;And also, they don&#8217;t have a choice! I&#8217;m not going to rip my child off my tit to go work. And if I do that, then maybe you shouldn&#8217;t hire me because I am willing to sell anything. It&#8217;s nature! Like, you just cannot do it. What kind of mother would I be? There&#8217;s no choice. It&#8217;s like, &#8216;What, you want me to leave my newborn so that I can work sixteen hours on your set? He&#8217;s only a month old, are you out of your mind?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The rumor mill has it that Saldana and husband<strong> Marco Perego<\/strong> are expected twin boys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zo\u00eb Saldana will soon be a mother, and the actress spoke about how she intends&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413],"tags":[2410],"class_list":["post-37343","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cast-crew","tag-saldana"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a>","tag_info":"Cast &amp; Crew","comment_count":"1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37343","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37343"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37343\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37349,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37343\/revisions\/37349"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37343"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37343"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37343"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
