Natalie Portman is being sought by the siblings Wachowski, Lana and Andy, to possibly star in their next flick, the sci-fi movie Jupiter Ascending, according to the folks at The Press Association.
Naturally, it being from the filmmakers who brought us The Matrix, there is a huge cloud of secrecy surrounding the production, but Portman, who worked with them on the comic adaptation V for Vendetta, is apparently keen to make it her first post-baby lead role. The last film the Wachowski's co-directed was the shite Speed Racer, but, hey, they still directed the downright groundbreaking first Matrix film - which has to give them some form of credibility, right? Shut up about the sequels.
They are currently co-helming Cloud Atlas, with Run, Lola, Run shooter Tom Tykwer and starring Tom Hanks.
