Zoe Saldaña: How I Became the Highest-Grossing Actor of All Time

Welcome to the very first episode of Pretty Tough with Maria Sharapova! For her debut interview, Maria sits down with Hollywood’s highest-grossing actor of all time, Academy Award winner Zoe Saldaña. 

You probably know Zoe from starring in some of the most iconic movie franchises of our lifetimes — Avatar, Star Trek, and Guardians of the Galaxy. But she’s also taken on roles in indie films and different genres. Just last year, she won an Oscar for Emilia Pérez, becoming the first Dominican-American to do so.

Maria and Zoe get into how she went from a little girl in Queens doing ballet to reaching Hollywood's greatest heights.

All that and more on the inaugural episode of Pretty Tough.

Pretty Tough is produced in partnership with VOX MEDIA.
