Natalie Portman Pretty in Pink on 'Black Swan' Set

7 December 2009 11:02 PM, PST | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »

Natalie Portman has begun her work as veteran ballerina for her upcoming movie "Black Swan" as the first on-the-set photos of the 28-year-old actress in her pink coat and white scarf surfaced. Bringing the pictures from the New York City set of the drama thriller to the attention was Accidental Sexiness.

On Monday, December 7, the co-star of Jake Gyllenhaal in "Brothers" was captured braving the chilly morning to film some scenes for the Darren Aronofsky-directed movie. Surrounded by on-lookers, she was spotted coming out of a subway station at Lincoln Center in the Big Apple for the scenes.

In "Black Swan", Natalie Portman takes on the role of Nina, a veteran ballerina who finds herself locked in a competitive situation with a rival dancer. As the stakes and twists increase with the fast-approacing big performance, it's unclear whether Nina's rival is real or only her delusions. Portman is joined by Mila Kunis, »

'Brothers' Wrenching, But the Performances Are Top Notch

5 December 2009 9:05 PM, PST | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »

Sibling rivalry is a common theme in films, but Brothers takes that universal subject and places it in a new context. There's more at play — and at stake — in Jim Sheridan's awards hopeful than just family interaction. Grief, guilt, and identity lie at the torn heart of this sometimes disturbing but always moving film.

At the beginning of Brothers, the family of Captain Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire, Spider-Man 3) is reluctant to see the Marine return to Afghanistan for another tour of duty. His wife, Grace (Natalie Portman, The Other Boleyn Girl), jokingly asks to come with him, and his daughters (Bailee Madison and Taylor Geare) plead with him to stay. He has an uneasy relationship with his brother, Tommy (Jake Gyllenhaal, Zodiac), who has just been released from prison in time for Sam to leave. Trouble-making Tommy has always stood in his brother's shadow, and it's never been »

Celebrities Donate Mugs To Charity Auction

3 December 2009 6:00 AM, PST | Look to the Stars | See recent Look to the Stars news »

Mugs donated by 13 of Britain’s favorite celebrities are going under the hammer for charity.

Stars such as Emma Thompson, Nigella Lawson, Chris Tarrant, Dragon’s Den’s Duncan Bannatyne, celebrity gardener Alan Titchmarsh, London Mayor Boris Johnson, violinist Nicola Benedetti, Newsnight presenter Kirsty Wark and authors Philippa Gregory (The Other Boleyn Girl) and Freya North (Secrets) have donated their favorite mugs to the auction to raise money for Mary’s Meals, a charity that provides school meals for 375,000 children around the world.

“A mug has become something of a symbol of our work, which is why we have chosen it as the theme for our auction,” said Ruth Black, one of the charity’s founders. “Each child is responsible for their own mug, which ensures that they get a fair portion every day, and they take great care of them – I remember seeing one little boy who carried his »

‘Other Boleyn’ Director Takes ‘First Grader’ Back to School

28 November 2009 10:59 PM, PST | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

I get the feeling that Africa is going to be a go-to for stories in the coming decade. It's already in the public mindset of news and current events, and films like Hotel Rwanda and the upcoming Invictus (I'm not really counting District 9...) have already taken audiences to the continent. I'm guessing it won't be long until we see a film version of "Things Fall Apart." The next in line is apparently Justin Chadwick, the director of The Other Boleyn Girl, who will be telling the story of an elderly man in Kenya who takes the government's pledge to free education seriously by signing up for it. Starting in the first grade. According to The Hollywood Reporter, The First Grader, is based off a true story (since that matters), and is being penned by Chronicles of Narnia writer Ann Peacock. Apparently, Naomie Harris (who couldn't act her way out of a paper bag in Ninja Assassin) is »

Preview: Brothers

27 November 2009 4:01 PM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

About ten years ago, three promising young actors were working to secure a place amongst the Hollywood A-list. Natalie Portman had finished her first major acting role, as Mathilda in Luc Bessons Leon. She would go on to make her major breakthrough in the Star Wars prequels. Tobey Maguire had small roles in respected films like The Cider House Rules and Wonder Boys, then also got his major break in a high budget franchise, winning the role of Spiderman. Jake Gyllenhaal came to public attention through his role in sleeper Indie hit Donnie Darko, then hit the big time through a combination of big budget popcorn in The Day After Tomorrow, and critically acclaimed drama in Brokeback Mountain. Next week in the Us, these three actors, firmly A-List, come together for Jim Sheridan’s brothers.

Brothers is a remake of Susanne Bier’s Danish film Brodre. Tobey Maguire plays Captain Sam Cahill, »

Elegantly Bubbly

It should not be surprising that a famous Hollywood star is the face of a luxury brand. They seem to have their face on everything these days, from watches to designer clothing and even European cars. But when quintessential champagne house, Möet & Chandon, for the first time in champagne marketing history elects to use a famous actress to be their ambassador, and that celebrity happens to be Scarlett Johansson, it is a beautiful amalgamation befitting the hype.   Since her springboard to worldwide fame with Sofia Coppola's Lost In Translation, Johansson has been delighting audiences with a range of roles encompassing gritty dramas, period features and mainstream romantic comedies (A Love Song For Bobby Long, The Other Boleyn Girl, He's Just Not That Into You), and in recent times has been the muse of Woody Allen (Match Point, Scoop, Vicky Cristina Barcelona). »

Confirmed: Eisenberg, Timberlake and Garfield Cast in David Fincher’s The Social Network

22 September 2009 10:18 PM, PDT | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »

Variety has confirmed a casting rumor report from last month for David Fincher big screen adaptation of The Social Network. Jesse Eisenberg has signed to play Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg (how perfect is that casting?), Andrew Garfield is set to play Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, and Justin Timberlake will play internet entrepreneur Sean Parker (Napster). Production will begin next month in Boston and later move to Los Angeles. As I have said previously, this is shaping up to be a very solid cast. If you kn ow anything about these characters, I think you'd agree. I don't normally like Timberlake, but anyone who knows the story for the film or has read the book will know he's the perfect person to play Parker. Garfield broke onto the scene with a Award-winning performance in Boy A, and has since appeared in Lions for Lambs, The Other Boleyn Girl, Red Riding, and »

Fantasy Fiction Dominates the New York Times Bestseller List

6 September 2009 4:41 PM, PDT | thetorchonline | See recent thetorchonline news »

Readers love fantasy. Fantasy or fantasy-esque genre fiction makes up more than thirty percent of this week's New York Times Best Sellers list of hardcover fiction.

The straight fantasy novels include: the new young adult novel The Magicians by Lev Grossman (at #16) ; the latest Landover novel, A Princess of Landover, by Terry Brooks (at #15); and the fifth installment in the Fever series, Dreamfever, by Karen Marie Morning (at #3).

Meanwhile, Abyss, a Star Wars novel, also lands on the list (at # 7), and The Other Boleyn Girl author Philippa Gregory's The White Queen, which isn't fantasy, but involves palace intrigue, made the list (at #2). The New York Times Best Sellers list, the nation's most well-known and most influential list of bestselling fiction, normally includes 15 novels, but includes 16 this week due to a tie. The newspaper's list of the week's bestselling mass-market paperbacks has not yet been made available, but last week, »

Rumor: Eisenberg, Timberlake and Garfield Cast in David Fincher’s The Social Network

3 September 2009 9:26 AM, PDT | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »

Carson Reeves has heard that not only has David Fincher begun casting on the big screen adaptation of The Social Network, but that the cast might already be set. Rumor has it that Jesse Eisenberg has signed to play Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg (how perfect is that casting?), Andrew Garfield is set to play Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, and Justin Timberlake will play internet entrepreneur Sean Parker (Napster). If true, this is shaping up to be a very solid cast, but what else would you expect from a Fincher production? I don't normally like Timberlake, but anyone who knows the story for the film or has read the book will know he's the perfect person to play Parker. Garfield broke onto the scene with a Award-winning performance in Boy A, and has since appeared in Lions for Lambs, The Other Boleyn Girl, and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Leave your »

Eric Bana-nanza

31 August 2009 6:20 PM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »

Dave from Victim of the Time here, wondering why Eric Bana isn't a legitimate movie-star yet. I don't like to be an undue influence, but if I were in charge of Nat's Film Bitch awards for this year, Eric would be the current front-runner for the 'Body of Work' award. You'll all remember Star Trek, of course, where Bana played the main villain, the Romulan Nero, and put a lot of energy and zest into a role that wasn't given as much attention as it probably should have been. Since then, he's recently had two more roles that amply show off both his acting chops - in strikingly different ways - and his almost limitless charisma. (He also starred in the Australian film Romulus, My Father, but who knows when that'll reach my eyes...) In a coincidental move that surely inspired this post, I happened to see both of these »
