Zoe Saldana on her character in The Losers!

The Avatar and Star Trek actress has revealed that Aisha needed a few tweaks to keep the live-action adaptation a PG-13...

"I felt like we were pretty on, but in terms of the tweaking, we just had to sort of soften her," the actress told MTV, "because she's a very violent and very raw character in the comic."

"She's lethal. She could at any moment dive over to you and slice your throat and then lick the knife."

"There's a picture in one of the volumes where she kills three or four guys with a knife — a big knife — and then she's licking it," said Saldana. "Now, that's pretty awesome, but we needed to keep it PG-13, so there was a lot of polishing that needed to happen, at least for this first one."

I wish that it was rated R. I want to see her slit someone's throat, and I want to see her nude.

PG-13 will pull in the largest crowd and in turn the most money. Unfortunately, it also turns really good movie ideas to junk a lot of times.
