Read More ]"/> Avatar star Zoe Saldana has said that she is ‘proud to be a geek’.

The 31-year-old actress stars as Neytiri in James Cameron’s new movie opposite Sam Worthington.

The star is becoming a hit in the science fiction world as she also played Uhura in the remake of Star Trek earlier this year, but she admitted that she’s always been drawn to nerdy flicks.

She told PEOPLE: “For me, it’s been like preaching to my choir, because I was considered what you would think of as a geek.

“I loved stories that helped me escape, and those happened to be the stories that fall into the category of geekiness. So, therefore, I am a proud geek!”
