Zoe Saldana will appear in Netflix’s upcoming action movie The Adam Project, starring Ryan Reynolds.
Reynolds plays a time-traveling pilot who must team up with his younger self and his late father to save the future — and come to terms with his past. Saldana stars as Laura, the missing love of the adult Adam. Walker Scobell plays Adam’s younger version, with Mark Ruffalo and Jennifer Garner playing the boy’s parents.
The film is directed by Shawn Levy, an Oscar-nominated producer of the sci-fi movie Arrival and multiple-Primetime Emmy-nominated producer of the sci-fi popular series Stranger Things.
Casting the film was Carmen Cuba, a filmmaker of Peruvian descent who reportedly lived both in Peru and Bolivia. Cuba has won two Emmys for her casting of the TV series Stranger Things and Behind the Candelabra. She also cast Vida for Starz. Most recently she cast the films, Hillbilly Elegy, The Matrix Resurrections and The Power of the Dog. Past film credits include Boy Erased, The Martian and the Magic Mike franchise.
The Adam Project will debut March 11.
