Amanda Seyfried Turned Down Playing Gamora For Marvel

Paramount Pictures

Lacey Chabert was the unique voice of Meg Griffin on Family Guy earlier than she “left the show of my own accord” and was changed by Mila Kunis, a choice that price her untold tens of millions. But she’s not solely the Mean Girls star to make an costly profession selection: Amanda Seyfried turned down the position of Gamora, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as a result of she didn’t wish to be inexperienced.

During a latest interview with MTV, the First Reformed star confessed that she “turned down one [superhero role] once and they haven’t called back since,” they being Marvel. How do we all know? Because: “I don’t regret it because I didn’t want to be green for six months out of every year,” Seyfried continued. “They tell beautiful stories through superheroes, and my daughter’s now really obsessed with superheroes now, and part of me wishes I’d done it, but the other part of me is like ‘I had a life to live’ and I don’t think I would’ve been happy.”

Seyfried by no means mentions “Marvel” or “Gamora” by identify, but it surely’s not like there are a ton of inexperienced feminine superheroes. Most of the inexperienced guys — The Hulk, Green Lantern, Green Hornet, Swamp Thing, and so forth. — are, nicely, guys. Maybe we’ll get She-Hulk throughout Phase 4. Anyway, issues labored out for everybody: Seyfried has no regrets (Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again was an enormous hit; and Twin Peaks: The Return, a vital favourite) and Zoe Saldana, who bought the position of Gamora, is in each of the highest-grossing films ever. And they each have in style Halloween costumes: Gamora for Saldana and mouse for Seyfried.
