Once a movie based on a pre-existing character in a book comes out, it's sort of hard to imagine anybody other than that person playing that role. Like, anyone other than Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan? No way. Someone that's not Jennifer Lawrence playing Katniss? Nu uh.
Bio
Name: Natalie Portman
Date of Birth: 6/9/1981
Birth Place: Jerusalem, Israel
Natalie Portman is the epitome of beauty and brains. The stunning Israeli actress earned her first Oscar for her unnerving performance of in Black Swan. But even before she won the gold, Natalie's career was full of noteworthy roles including Garden State, V for Vendetta (for which Natalie shaved her head on camera), Closer and Cold Mountain. Plus, who could forget Natalie's portrayal of Queen Amindala in the controversial new Star Wars films? But Natalie isn't just content with being a Hollywood A-lister. The actress also earned a degree in psychology from Harvard and is known for being one of the most intellectual stars around. Natalie really seems to have it all. Especially since she met her fiance Benjamin Millepied on the set of Black Swan with whom she welcomed her first child, a son Aleph, in 2011.
