Aronofsky's 'Black Swan' Gains More Cast Members
Filed under: Horror, Thrillers
By Alison NastasiDarren Aronofsky's latest film is a thriller with a supernatural twist. Black Swan is currently in pre-production and Slashfilm recently revealed full casting details for the film. It was already announced that Natalie Portman will star as Nina, a veteran ballerina competing against a mysterious rival dancer, Lily, played by Mila Kunis. As the dancers approach an important performance, Nina starts to question if her rival is a supernatural apparition or if she's having delusions and her identity starts to blur with that of her eerily similar competitor. To the absolute joy of fanboys everywhere, the film includes an "ecstasy-induced hungry, aggressive, angry sex" scene between Portman and Kunis. Having flashbacks to Requiem for a Dream yet?
Joining the cast of Black Swan will be Vincent Cassel, Winona Ryder and Barbara Hershey. Ryder plays Beth, Nina's frenemie who used to be the star dancer but is nearing the end of her career. Hmm. Cassel is the "handsome but sinister" (love him but no shocker here) Yevna who is the stage director and Hershey is Nina's mother.

Aranofsky has a tendancy to be very pretentious if left unchecked! Natalie Portman and Winona Ryder bring a new definition of getting wood to their performances in most things they do so im not that excited!

I am a huge fan of Natalie Portman and though I'm not a fan of girl on girl sex just for the sake if it .
I do trust her judgment and think from what I know about the story "Black Swan" will be a challenging role for her. I definitely feel she is up to the job!
The film will be directed by Darren Aronofsky, who is considered to be a brilliant filmmaker he has a sensitivity in his approach to dealing with actors and his stories, no doubt she will be in good hands.
