I've done a lot of comedy recently, so I would really like to explore something else. I am hankering after a really meaty, dramatic role... like Natalie Portman's part in Black Swan.'

Ophelia Lovibond

'Black Swan' was absolutely unbelievable. I had always dreamed of working with Darren Aronofsky, and Natalie Portman, Winona Ryder, Barbara Hershey, Mila Kunis and Vincent Cassel. The entire cast was really a dream cast, and it was amazing to work with these powerhouse women that I've just admired for so many years.

Ksenia Solo

I launched Ballet Beautiful not long after finishing at Columbia and met Natalie Portman shortly after. We began training and preparing her for her role in 'Black Swan.' From there, I continued to build and expand the method itself along with the business, always looking for ways to share the workout with others around the world.

I'm going to try to pull a Natalie Portman. Natalie went to Harvard while shooting 'Star Wars'. I don't know how she did it. I want to have lunch with her and ask her - that seems like a bunch of stress right there.

Selena Gomez

There's a lot of focus on kids like Macaulay Culkin or others who had bad situations at some point in their careers and not enough focus on the people who do good like Natalie Portman or Claire Danes. It's hard for children to have these full-time jobs with all this responsibility.

Tia Mowry

I really love Natalie Portman; she's the real deal.

Kirsten Prout

I've been in love with Natalie Portman for a long time now. She's flawless.

Brant Daugherty

Natalie Portman is one of my favorites, and Jodie Foster. Those two are amazing actresses.

Alexa Vega

When you cast someone like Natalie Portman, the character can't just be the love interest.

Kenneth Branagh

I love all of Kate Winslet's characters. And Natalie Portman. If I can have a smidgen of what they've done, that would be awesome.

Florence Pugh

Professionally, I really respect Natalie Portman - her career choices, actually going for stuff with substance.

Maiara Walsh

They were doing the Dying Swan at the ballet. And there was a rumor that some bookmarkers had drifted into town from upstate New York and that they had fixed the bullet. There was a lot of money bet on the swan to live.

Woody Allen

I love Michelle Williams and Natalie Portman - those are the careers I want. My goal is to win an Oscar, and I'm going to take the steps to get there.

Ashley Benson

I like women who don't wear too much make-up. Natalie Portman is naturally stunning, and so are Charlize Theron and Kate Bosworth.

Vogue Williams

I get all these screenplays that start 'Tawnya is in the shower. The water streams down her naked, perky breasts'. I don't think this is happening to Natalie Portman.
