Mean Girls and Mamma Mia! star Amanda Seyfried has revealed that she was offered the role of Gamora in ꧃Guardians of the Galaxy, but turned it down for a few reasons – including because she didn't think the movie would be a success.

"I was really scared of the idea of being stuck and painte⭕d a different color because of the amount of time [it takes]," she said during an appearance on the .

"It was a giant opportunity. I had just met James [Gunn] in person. He is 🐭wonderful. Apparently someone said he didn’t remember but it’s definitely true. I definitely got the offer for it and I mulled over it for a couple days. I didn’t want to live in London for six months out of the year. There was another movie I really wanted to do with Seth MacFarlane called A Million Ways to Die in the West. It felt like a good opportunity."

Seyfried added, "Let’s also remember that being a part of the first Marvel movie that bombs ain’t🧸 good for your career. I thought that because this was about a talking tree and a talking raccoon that it would be Marvel’s first bomb and me and Chris Pratt would never work again. I was wrong! But I was just being smart. It’s not b🎶rave."

Of course, Zoe Saldaña went on to play green-skinned assassin Gamora in all three of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy movies, as well as Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. The first Guardians movie was relea𝔍sed in 2014 and co-starred Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, and Vin Diesel.

Next up for Seyfried is the horror comedy I Don't Understand You, which arrives in theaters on June 6. In the meantime, get up to speed with the rest of this year's best 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming movies with our guide to 2025's biggest 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:movie release dates.
