We asked Evangeline Lilly which Marvel character she’d want to take on: “She’s fantastic in hand-to-hand, she’d be a really good matchup.”
We have already been able to see the new big (and small) superhero adventure of the year in theaters, the ideal excuse to talk to one of its main stars and that Evangeline Lilly chooses the Marvel character to face after ‘Ant Man and the Wasp Quantumania’.
Now that we have the ending of ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ explained, we review our always controversial ranking of Marvel movies in search of a rival at the level of the Wasp with whom he can face off in one of the upcoming releases. from Marvel.
“I’m going to say Gamora, because she’s fantastic in hand-to-hand combat.like Hope, so it would be a really good match, I’d like to see who wins,” the actress explains.
We met Gamora, played by Zoe Saldaña in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ (James Gunn, 2014). She is a very powerful warrior raised by Thanos who, after murdering her family, decided to train her as an assassin who, upon reaching a certain age, discovered her past and rebelled against her adoptive father.
Gamora allies with the other Guardians whom she finally feels like family in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’ (James Gunn, 2017)but that will be in danger after the events of ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ (Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, 2018) and ‘Avengers: Endgame’ (Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, 2019), where we have to say goodbye to Gamora that we know that, however, is replaced by that of another time line.
We will run into the character again in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ (James Gunn, 2023), achieving another unprecedented success in Saldaña’s career who, in addition to all these Marvel blockbusters, has in his filmography with bombs like ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl’ (Gore Verbinski, 2003), ‘Star Trek’ (JJ Abrams, 2009) ‘Avatar’ (James Cameron, 2009), ‘Star Trek: Into Darkness’ ( JJ Abrams, 2013) and the recent ‘Avatar: The Sense of Water’ (James Cameron, 2022).
It doesn’t seem like Evangeline Lilly’s wish can come true. The last Gamora movie could be ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ and, although the Wasp still has some way to go, it is difficult for the Guardians to continue within the saga of the multiverse after the premiere of the closure of their trilogy.
“She is also a wonderful person and I would like to work with her because she is nice“explains Lilly, closer to fulfilling her dream since, like Saldaña, she has achieved a position in her work in which she has earned the right to choose the projects and colleagues to work with. Will we see them together?
