Meanwhile, Marco rocked a striped t-shirt, which was covered by a cozy-looking cardigan and leather jacket. He also donned jeans, suede shoes, and a light-colored hat. The couple's twins, Cy Aridio and Bowie Ezio Perego-Saldaña, wore similar outfits to each other and left their long hair loose.

"In the link also @jamescameronofficial greeted the actress and anticipated that she will soon be a guest at the National Cinema Museum! Stay tuned 🔥," concluded the message.
Although Zoe, who also stars in the series "Lioness," was the one being honored at the premiere, it was her boys who received most of the attention online. Many netizens complimented them and their hair, and marveled at the resemblance they share with Zoe.

"Wow she literally duplicated herself 3x!" exclaimed an Instagrammer, while a fan chimed in with, "Her children are gorgeous and a spitting image of her." Another echoed, "She really did a copy and paste with her kids 🤣😍."
More complimentary and resemblance comments ensued, with yet another observer opining, "All those little boys have the most gorgeous hair ever! The twins look exactly like little Zoes [sic]."
"Those kids have great hair lol," added a Facebooker, while a spectator wrote, "🔥Those hair genes." "Wow! Those kids hit the jackpot with their genes! My gosh - all of them so [sic] beautiful," gushed someone else. Reiterating the public's affinity for the boys' hair, a fan noted, "blessed [sic] with great hair 😄👏."
Echoing a similar sentiment, another expressed, "Wow, beautiful kids! Gorgeous hair 😍," while an Instagrammer stated, "That's alot [sic] of hair in the bathroom 😂😂 cute family."
"Geez, talk about hitting the genetic lottery! Those are some gorgeous children! Well done Zoe and hubby!" marveled an admirer. "Most gorgeous kids ever," praised another fan.

"Her genes won by a landslide 😁," observed an Instagram follower. "They stole her whole face. 🤗😊," mentioned an observer.
A fellow fan highlighted, "Of course her family would be stunning, just like their momma! Congratulations." Complimenting the entire family, an admirer said, "They all have such beautiful hair 🥰."
While Zoe and Marco's beautiful boys have been seen by the public from time to time, the doting parents still hold their sons' privacy in the highest regard.
Back in 2017, Zoe spoke to People magazine about the matter during an interview she did at a press event for her partnership with Japan's All Nippon Airways.
"Marco and I have a great deal of respect for the privacy of our kids, they're dependent on us so they're not in a position to make choices for themselves. We have to choose for them and part of that is giving them the anonymity that they need so that they can feel safe and not aware of anything around them," divulged Zoe.
She then noted how traumatizing it could potentially be for a child to have a camera in their face, especially when they don't know why or what's going on.
Zoe added, "This is the path that we've chosen, we have to wait for their choices to be heard so in the meantime, we need to protect their environment and we're all about that."

In another interview from October 2023, Zoe spoke about her kids again. This time, she focused on how she and Marco Perego raise Cy, Bowie, and Zen, noting how she and her husband emphasize the importance of the boys honoring themselves and their femininity.
Contextualizing why the parents choose to teach their kids to embrace and celebrate their feminine sides, Zoe reflected how society tends to encourage men to be tough and suppress their emotions.
When such teachings are carried on for a long time, this can lead male individuals to completely cut themselves off from their feelings.
"We definitely understood the assignments and accepted it knowing that we were raising boys during a time when women's movements are so important," disclosed Zoe on the matter.
Outside of respecting their privacy and raising them, Zoe Saldaña also balances being a hands-on mom with a busy work schedule.
She reflected on this balance in a post she shared on October 15. Alongside an adorable photo of her playing with two of her kids while dressed up as her character Gamora from "Guardians of the Galaxy," Zoe captioned, "Being on the road is hard when you're away from your children."
She continued, "To all the moms out there making the ultimate sacrifice for their dreams. Those dreams are their's [sic] too! Trust the process… #momlife."
