Last week the wold learned that part of the big reason why Darren Arnofosky might not be officially locked in for the new ROBOCOP Movie is because he wants to do BLACK SWAN Movie with Natalie Portman. At that time, Fox Searchlight was closing in on working with Aronofsky on this psychological supernatural drama about a New York Ballerina who’s going to enter a competitive showdown but she may or may not be imagining her rival.
As of now, BLACK SWAN doesn’t have a distributor but Fox Searchlight could be involved once production starts. But Natalie has found her rival. According to Hollywood Reporter, Mila Kunis will play Lily, the nemesis who may or may not be real. Strange occurrences happen and increase between the two as they prepare for a big performance.
Production will start in the fall in New York. Kunis was there at Comic-Con ‘09 recently to promote her new comedy Extract directed by Mike Judge, but she didn’t talk much mainly because questions from the Q&A audiences were mostly directed to Judge instead. But she did get asked by some dude if she needed him to be her pool cleaner.
