Natalie Portman on board for Aronofsky’s ‘Black Swan’

One of my biggest hollywood crushes Natalie Portman is set to star in t Darren Aronofsky’s ‘Black Swan’ which is about competitive ballerina’s. If any other director was attached I would say this is definitely a ‘Bring it On’ ripoff film or something along those lines, but Aronofsky usually doesnt disappoint. THR gives us this:

“Swan” centers on 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.

Those who’ve read the script say it’s a spine-tingler with elements of “The Others,” the Nicole Kidman breakout in which viewers are left to discern what’s real and what’s imagined.

This sounds like a winner, what do you guys think? Hopefully he will somehow incorporate ‘Black Swan’ by Thom Yorke in the movie somewhere, its only fitting.
