Don't let su belleza fool you, Zoe Saldana can kick butt too! The star of upcoming 3-D película 'Avatar' says she's inspired by actresses like Angelina Jolie and Jessica Biel, who truly embrace the action scenes in their movies.

"I have the itch lately. I don't know if it is after 'Avatar' or 'Star Trek' or because I've just finished an action film called 'The Losers', in which I did almost all my own stunts. I think it's so empowering and sexy. I love actresses like Angelina and Jessica. They're very agile, they incorporate their bodies with their characters and they pick women who are very strong. I really dig that."

In a recent interview with Esquire magazine, Zoe made sure to credit Salma Hayek, Halle Berry, and Jolie for opening the door to the action genre for mujeres.

"Before them, women were just sex pots or mothers. They were never the heroes who saved the day. They've enabled a generation of actresses to have a bigger variety of roles. If I wanted to be part of a story that is amazing and had a lot of sexual openness, that's fine. But I am so grateful to know that, like them, I can open different doors for women."

We certainly look forward to seeing Zoe Saldana show off some of her moves! [NewsBlaze]

El “Rey de los Reyes" is gettin more love from Hollywood since being cast in The Fast and the Furious 4.

The Don is getting a slew of new offers including one alongside Queen M.I.L.F. Halle Berry. The project isn’t titled yet, but the newlywed already had this to say about the Academy Award winning actriz:

“[Es] preciosa y creo que es una súper actriz. La respeto mucho, mucho, mucho,”

Wonder what his esposa is going to say about that!

While we don't think every Reggaetonero needs to be showcased on the silver screen, hopefully it will keep him out of the court room.
