Natalie Portman is lovely looking isn’t she? Even when dressed in ridiculous clothes and faced with the immensely wooden acting of Hayden Christensen in the newest Star Wars films, she still managed to look all lovely and lovelier.
Now Portman is set to look really quite lovely in the new Alien prequels which Ridley Scott has promised will be so grotesque that we might just puke all of our bones up through our faces.
Even if Natalie Portman ends up covered in alien vomit and has enormous, gaping wounds all over her body after being attacked by weird creatures, she’ll still make us all sigh like lovelorn schoolboys.
Apparently, Scott really wants Natalie Portman to play the film’s female lead. If you’re wondering, the lead is a colonial marine general. So that’d be lovely BUT REALLY TOUGH Natalie Portman on our screens.
Of course, she’s not said yes to the role and, should she decide to turn the gig down, then it is rumoured that the second choice is The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo star Noomi Rapace.
She’s quite lovely too, but not a lovely as lovely Natalie Portman.
In other news concerning the film, it’s said that Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof has finished his rewrite of the film’s script and that all concerned are rather happy with the way it looks. Weirdly, revisions have been put forward which will lower the movie’s age certificate.
And there’s us thinking that this was going to be a ming-fest.
There’s very little in the way of plot details emerging thus far, but we understand that the Alien prequel has been set around 35 years before the original film and that it may hit the screens in 2011.
Natalie Portman is really lovely isn’t she?

This is one I won’t go see even though I love the Alien flicks. Anything to do with Damon Lindelof is going to be a gigantic disappointment as all the Lost fans know. Won’t be fooled again.

I can’t believe he’s aiming for a lower certification, this makes me question the whole project. We’ve seen this kind of neutering countless times before and it’s never worked – think Robocop 3 / AvP / Terminator Salvation and all those other mature franchises that have lowered themselves to the PG-13 “sweet-spot”. You widen your target audience but end up with a kid’s movie. I actually had some faith that Scott would pull this off but it’s rapidly waning.

No thanks! This will be about as good as Alien vs. Predator. Will not waste my money!
