It looks like Natalie Portman, one of my favourite actresses, is set to play the lead in Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan.
The film tells the story of a veteran ballerina (Portman) who finds herself locked in a competitive situation with a rival dancer, with the stakes and twists increasing as the dancers approach a big performance. But it’s unclear whether the rival is a supernatural apparition or if the protagonist is simply having delusions.
The film could begin shooting as early as this year.
