Skinny sexpot Zoe Saldana (Avatar) plays green-skinned and red-haired alien stunner Gamora in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. A new featurette on the character has gone online, and it’s kinda hot. The film arrives in theaters on Aug. 1.

Saldana told Collider:

Because I was going to be green and I was going to be the lead girl, I just wanted teenage boys to find me attractive.  I don’t know why I was stressing this a lot but I really was when we were testing.  That’s where I was coming from… I’m like, “Pretty.  Teenage boys, please.  We gotta get their vote.

Guardians of the Galaxy is directed by James Gunn and costars Chris Pratt as intergalactic bad-boy Peter Quill, Vin Diesel as tree-humanoid Groot, Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer, Bradley Cooper as the voice of Rocket Raccoon, Benicio Del Toro as The Collector, and Karen Gillian as villain Nebula.
