It was really important to be well aware of the past before the ‘Adam Project’ and the Actor from ‘Avatar’, who lost his father in 1987 during a car accident. ‘I can understand what it feels like to lose your father at a young age, but It is much more worse for one’s mother who loses her husband, that pain and grief is really hard to explain” added Saldana, who herself is a mother to three children and a wife to Marco Perego Italian actor.
