Zoë Saldana Pregnant: 'Guardians of the Galaxy' Star Expecting Her First Child With Husband Marco Perego

Actress Zoe Saldana is expecting her own little avatar.

The "Rosemary's Baby" actress announced the news of her first child with husband Marco Perego this week. Saldana's publicist confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that the 36-year-old actress was three months pregnant, but wasn't ready to make a public release until closer to her due date.

"Zoe is about three months pregnant," the insider told Us Weekly. "But she will only announce the news when she's ready."

The actress reportedly showed off a slight baby bump on Monday while wearing a black and white printed frock at the Hollywood premiere of her latest action film, "Guardians of the Galaxy." While on the red carpet, Saldana did not comment of her reported pregnancy.

Saldana wed Italian artist Perego last year in a ceremony reportedly held in London. An insider told Us Weekly that the couple's wedding was "super small but very romantic and beautiful."

The "Star Trek Into Darkness" actress recently gushed about her husband to Fashion Magazine, saying, "I met my partner when I was in really a beautiful place in my life. It was like I found all my answers with him not in him. I was finding my answers on my own."

During an episode of the now-canceled Lifetime series, "The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet," the actress opened up about her desire to start a family and have three to five children.

"I'm Latin - we start young, honey!" Saldana admitted in the April 2012 interview. "I love the anxiety, the pressure of the loud room full of yapping kids. But I'm a kid myself. I get along very well with animals and children. I dig them. I get them. They make perfect sense to me. A child makes perfect sense to me. A child speaks more sense than an adult half of the time."

It is unclear how Saldana's pregnancy will affect her work, including reprising her role in James Cameron's three sequels to "Avatar".
