HOLLYWOOD ENIGMA: NATALIE PORTMAN
In her forthcoming film Brothers, Natalie Portman gives a heart-wrenching performance as Grace, a grieving woman torn between her husband (Tobey Maguire), a solider presumed dead while fighting in the Afghan war, and his rebellious brother who comforts her (Jake Gyllenhaal). When it opens on 22 January, Natalie will be back on the red carpet - home from home for the A-list star of Star Wars, Closer and The Other Boleyn Girl - but beyond the glamorous premiere dresses and award season smile, who is the real Natalie Portman? In her most revealing interview yet, the Hollywood enigma invites ELLE into her private world.
THE INTERVIEW
When writer April Long meets this month’s cover star for a cup of lavender tea in New York’s Greenwich Hotel, she’s not the only fan in the room. US R&B star Usher saunters over to introduce himself. ‘Usher!’ Natalie whispers once he’s gone. ‘How cool was that?’ But it’s easy to see why this actress is so admired. The Golden Globe-winner has been in the limelight since her mesmerising debut aged 12 in 1994 cult hit Leon, yet dressed in dark jeans, a sweater and black studded flats she’s unassuming and approachable – a winning combination for any journalist embarking on an A-list interview. Here’s what Natalie has to say about life in the spot light and her straight-laced reputation. Read the full interview in the February issue of ELLE out Wednesday 6 January.
