Zoe Saldaña initially turned down Taylor Sheridan's offer to star in "Special Ops: Lioness" due to a lack of confidence, but a year later, she decided to take the leap and become the lead in the television series.

Saldaña also discussed the conclusion of "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" and appreciated that writer-director James Gunn didn't force a new romance for her character, Gamora.

"Special Ops: Lioness," the latest series by Taylor Sheridan for Paramount+, features a multiplicity of female leads but fails to provide nuanced depictions of women. Loosely based on a real CIA program, the show follows an initiative that embeds undercover agents with high-value terrorism targets.

The show lacks curiosity about the circumstances that pit the Lioness team against the Islamic State in Iraq and instead presents a vision of U.S. hegemony. Despite the presence of Nicole Kidman, the show's right-wing overtones and stereotypically masculine conflicts undermine its attempt at pop feminism.
