Speaking of her character specifically, Saldana noted, “She began as this warrior wanting to get out a very toxic parental relationship, then she finds the Guardians, whoa re dysfunctional-ish as well, but they’re okay.”
Saldana continues, “She learns a lot and finds this bigger purpose. Then her dad comes and [Expletive] everything up. She dies she’s brought back, but it’s not her.
