These Movie Aliens Are Gorgeous Without Their Costumes

The Woman With Many Alien Faces

Zoe Saldana has become a staple of sci-fi, even though many people have never seen her face. She acted as Neytiri in Avatar and Gamora in Guardians of the Galaxy and Avengers. After Avatar, Saldana told STV that she appreciated how Neytiri looked “lean with a really cute bod.”

By the time she played Gamora, Saldana had to clarify that she’s not eye-candy. Playing CGI characters empowers her, according to an interview in The Daily Telegraph’s Stellar Magazine. “I think science fiction has given me the ability as an artist to be colorblind and gender-blind,” she said.

Was The Heat Worth The Alien Suit?

Simon Pegg has always been a die-hard Star Wars fan, so he jumped at the opportunity to play Unkar Plutt in The Force Awakens. Most fans wouldn’t recognize him thanks to a combination of a suit, makeup, prosthetics, and CGI.

Although effective, Pegg admitted that the suit was a disaster. On The Graham Norton Show, Pegg said that the suit was 50°C inside (122°F). “I had these big, rubber, silicon gauntlets…and when I took them off, I could pour the sweat out.” Yikes.

Paul The Alien Wasn’t Even On Set

While most alien movies are serious, Paul takes a hilarious turn–especially with Seth Rogen as the alien. Throughout his role, Rogen was also under contract for The Green Hornet, so he had to play Paul while not being on set.

A co-star, Joe Lo Truglio, acted in Rogen’s place during the shooting. Afterward, Rogen created some of Truglio’s lines and improv. He performed all the motion capture and voice acting post-production. In an interview with Collider, co-star Nick Frost admitted that he kept forgetting that Rogen was playing Paul.
