Avatar star Zoe Saldaña reveals her incredible audition process for the original film. Saldaña played Neytiri, female lead and Jake Sully’s love interest, in 2009’s Avatar. The actress reprises her role in the upcoming sequel Avatar: The Way of Water. In the sequel, Neytiri is not only the female lead, but a mother as Jake and Neytiri have had Na’vi children together in the time lapsed between the story of the original film and the events of The Way of Water.
Saldaña: First they told me that it was like about this robot, this female robot. I thought it was like Alita: Battle Angel. But it’s set like in the jungle. And I was like, ‘well, that doesn’t really make any sense. Like a warrior princess was a robot, like a sentient, what is that?’ But Mali Finn, who was the casting director at that time, who was later then, Margery Simkin took the part of casting it, they would sometimes just come in and call me.
