Saldana appeared in minor roles like a female pirate in the hit movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl, an immigration agent in The Terminal, among others.

But, the year 2009 turned out to be the successful year of her career with her iconic character in Star Trek and Avatar.

Both movies turned out to be big box office successes.

After that, there was no turning back for Saldana as she gave back-to-back hit movies like Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
