Natalie Portman is being lined up for the lead in forthcoming supernatural thriller 'Black Swan'.
According to entertainment website Hollywood Reporter, the 'Star Wars' actress has been signed up to star in the film set in the world of ballet.
The movie, with 'The Wrestler' director Darren Aronofsky on board, has been resurrected after stalling two years ago.
'Black Swan' centres on a New York ballerina locked into competition with a rival dancer. However, as a big performance approaches, it is unclear if the rival is a figment of Natalie’s character’s imagination or a supernatural apparition.
