The 36-year-old actress formerly addressed her pregnancy during her video for the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in August. Her "Crossroads" co-star Britney Spears first let spill that Saldana would welcome twins in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in September.

Spears was asked if she would ever shoot another movie with Saldana and she replied, "Who knows? That's a very good idea. But she's pregnant with twins right now. So I'm sure she's got a huge future ahead of her."

Saldana also shared possible baby names while appearing on "The Ellen Show," none of which were Cy and Bowie.

"My husband is very Italian and I'm very Latina so every day we have messages from our parents, 'Oh it should be Rocko, Giovanni, Luigi, Antonio Ramon Jose.' And you're like, 'Oh my god, people chill, chill,'" she joked. "We're kind of hippie... we just want them to be healthy."

Saldana will next star as Nina Simone in the biopic "Nina."
