- CODE NAME: NATASHA
Portman on set of Malick Film |
Natalie Portman took a much-deserved break after winning the
Best Actress Oscar for Black Swan and giving birth to her child, but now that
shes back making feature films, it would seem that pretty much everyone wants
to get her into a film.
It was recently reported that Portman was being eyed to play
Jackie Kennedy in the real-life drama Jackie, and now The Wrap reports that
Portman is also mulling over two other projects: the gun-running thriller Code
Name Sasha and the drama Last Witness, Collider reports.
Paramount’s Code Name Sasha is described as a female
Training Day meets La Femme Nikita and centers on a single mother with a long
history of being engaged in criminal activity who is courted by the FBI to go
undercover and bring down the world’s largest gun-running organization.
While Fox’s Last Witness tells the story of a psychologist
working with the sole survivor of a bombing in a Boston café who is suffering
from amnesia.
Portman’s representative says that she’s yet to make a
decision regarding these films, so she could end up doing one, both, or
neither. She’s already committed to
appearing in Thor: The Dark World, the incredibly promising Western Jane Got a
Gun (which she’s also producing), and Terrence Malick’s untitled project.
Not much is known about the Terrence Malick project, however
Portman was recently spotted filming scenes for the film in Austin. Previously
titled Lawless, the cast also includes Ryan Gosling and Rooney Mara.
Portman also appears in Malick’s other 2012 film, Knight of
Cups, opposite Christian Bale, which he shot earlier this year.
