Natalie Related News
Time to show some love for our French speaking visitors. Aurore sent word that there is now a French poster and trailer for Brothers, as well as a website.
But that’s not all, Carlotto found a really great preview of Black Swan that provides a lot more details about the film and looks at it in contrast to his entire filmography.
If French isn’t your mother tongue, fear not, Carlotto has transcribed the entire article. You can read it after the jump.

Two last Brothers reviews for you today. The first is very positive and from another of my favourite film writers, Devin Faraci.
Also strong is Natalie Portman. Stuck in a role that’s half thankless she manages to find the quiet strength in this smalltown girl facing unthinkable tragedy. Lots of characters in the film acknowledge how beautiful she is – finally! A movie where the super pretty Hollywood types are actually super pretty! – but she never feels like an LA type making a visit to a small town. She may be smarter than my prejudices tell me a cheerleader who marries a football player turned Marine would be, but she’s got the inner stability that I find believable in a mother of two. Portman doesn’t go for cheap histrionics and plays Grace as a character who keeps it together, turning her grief into catatonia. She also has a great rapport with Gyllenhaal; the scenes of their ‘courtship,’ such as it is, ring true and believable.
Most of the reviews that I’ve come across have been very impressed with Natalie’s performance, however its safe to say that Dana Stevens of Slate feels somewhat differently.
Her mixed review can be found here but it’s her paragraph about Natalie that really stands out.

I've updated the gallery with quite a few more pictures of Natalie on set and filming what looks like an emotional scene for Black Swan with co-star Vincent Cassel and…
The first set photos from ballet thriller, Black Swan, have emerged from this morning in Manhattan. Pictured with Natalie is director Darren Aronofsky and co-star Vincent Cassel.
Several months ago we posted about a project called Friends With Benefits (First update and second update), which was a former Black List script (Hollywood’s best un-filmed screenplays).
Natalie was rumoured to be starring with Ivan Reitman directing. Ivan is these days best known for being the dad of shit-hot director, Jason Reitman (Juno). But back in the day he made some classic films like Ghostbusters and Stripes.
Well, according to this article about Ivan, things are definitely moving ahead with him directing and Natalie starring. The male lead? Ashton Kutcher.
If you’re like me and close to freaking out at this point, I’ve been told that deals have definitely not been done yet.
