Zoe Saldana Says There are Very Interesting Ideas for Star Trek XII

• 
  io9 posted a report on theComic-Con"Wonder Women" panel, which included Star Trek actress Zoe Saldana and here is an excerpt

Saldana on taking on Uhura:

Saldana says she wanted to convey the "normalcy" of being a woman of color in a respected position, among a bunch of men. "As a woman, an American woman, a woman of color, to be able to be granted an opportunity to play a character that symbolizes strength... a woman my mother wanted to be with when she was a little girl, is nothing but a humbling position to be in." And there are "very interesting" ideas for the second Trek movie, she says. "I couldn't be more excited."

Later, Saldana added: "I do think if we continue to do it, one day we won't have to meet with our produciers and writers and directors and say, 'I don't have to understand why my character has to sleep with the lead guy just because she digs him.'"
