Nacer y morir en Hollywood

1 de 4
COLIN FARRELL - Fuera de foco


Colin Farrell, en medio de una noche de cachondeo, se filmó teniendo sexo con la playmate Nicola Narain. Fue un escándalo menor cuando salió a la luz y quedó en el pasado. Hasta ahora. Un bromista de mal gusto le mandó una copia del video a la familia de la nueva novia de Colin, la polaca Alicja Bachleda. Los padres de la chica adoran a Colin, pero son católicos y muy poco liberales. Todos están furiosos y buscan desesperadamente quién fue el mala onda que mandó el sobre nefasto. "Ahora ni siquiera quiero meterme en Internet", dijo Colin apenado.

Lesbiana tardía

"No diría que es picante, diría que es extrema". Así calificó Natalie Portman una escena de sexo lésbico que debió rodar para "Black Swan", su nueva película. Dice que hasta ahora evitó las escenas fuertes porque no está cómoda con ser un símbolo sexual.

La clave del éxito

Sandra Bullock dice tener la clave para que sus películas sean un éxito: tiene que mostrar íntegramente el traste. La actriz dice que "La propuesta" fue un boom por eso. "En la película trabajó un buen equipo, pero la verdad es que lo que rindió fue la desnudez".

Fetiches secretos

"Experimenté con extraños fetiches sexuales. Me dediqué a lo más mundano del matrimonio y aún sigo en ese viaje". Nicole Kidman dice que aunque crean que vive en una nube rosada, su vida es oscurita. "Pero me llevaré todos mis secretos a la tumba".

Muy, muy chic

Lady Gaga siempre porta un look extravagante, pero ya medio que se está pasando de la raya. "Mis accesorios favoritos son los preservativos". A medio camino entre ponerse cualquier cosa y crear conciencia entre sus fanáticos.


Franz Ferdinand confirmó lugar y fecha: la banda tocará el 12 de marzo en el Luna Park. Desde el lunes, entradas en venta.

More than curious think about the new draft Natalie Portman.

Natalie Portman, Orgullo, Prejuicio y... Zombis http://nataliaportman.blogspot.com/
More than curious think about the new draft Natalie Portman. The star of 'V for Vendetta' and the last trilogy of 'Star Wars' star in 'Pride and Prejudice and Zombies', a curious adaptation of the well-known novel by Jane Austen.
Although it seems more appropriate for the news and close on December 28, is 'Variety' that ensures that Portman produce and star in this unusual project. Written by Seth Grahame Smith, the 'Pride and Prejudice and Zombies' expands the story of Austen's candid turning into a Bennet sisters in a skilled ninja fighting a terrible invasion of hungry undead eager to devour their delicate brains.
The English population of Meryton quiet will become a real battlefield in which Portman will display their talents, as demonstrated, for action films.
"Natalie and I are great admirers of Jane Austen's books for a long time and this seems a fresh and fun approach to their work," says Annette Savitchy, member of Portman in the production ensures that, although the idea of zombies walking in the Victorian era will be a tape "fun" and romantic. Will have to see to believe.

Entrevista a Natalie Portman

http://nataliaportman.blogspot.com

Con apenas 1.60 de altura, Natalie Portman sigue siendo la ‘pequeña’ mimada de Hollywood desde que cautivó el corazón del público con aquel clásico del cine donde la protegía un asesino "Profesional". Y aunque está muy cerca de los 30 años (28 para ser más exactos), hace tiempo que demuestra la madurez, en todos los aspectos, de su carrera.

¿Qué es lo que tanto te gusta de la actuación? Muchísimo. (La actuación) Te permite probar toda clase de cosas que a lo mejor no harías en tu vida normal. Jamás matarías a alguien en la vida, pero en una película se puede. Igual con el sexo (riendo), porque yo no tengo relaciones sexuales por cuestiones religiosas (más risas). Hablando en serio, es emocionante imaginar la existencia de otra persona. Es realmente una experiencia extracorporal, es pura práctica de empatía.

¿Se volvió una obligada costumbre ir a los festivales de cine, después de haber pasado por Toronto, Venecia o aquella vez que estuviste como jurado en Cannes? No sé... Me gustan los festivales de cine que están basados en el público, porque hay muchos donde la gente no puede entrar o hay que ir en smoking para ver una película. Pero yo los prefiero cuando los espectadores crean el ambiente.

Y a la hora de elegir una película, ¿qué estilo de cine te gusta realmente? Me gusta toda clase de cine. Tengo suerte que la gente haya tenido la mente lo suficientemente abierta como para permitirme un rango bastante amplio. Y películas como Love and Other Impossible Pursuits son emocionantes, porque combina el drama con buen humor. Creo que es muy irreal en la vida, cuando las películas son monótonamente dramáticas, supongo que se precisa el humor porque así es la vida. Cuando pasa algo trágico, a todos los que conozco les nace cierto humor negro. Cuando hay brillo, hay mucho más color. Es divertido. Ahora mismo, estoy filmando una comedia muy divertida y me gusta aprender ese tipo de lecciones para incorporarla en algo dramático, porque es una forma de trabajo completamente diferente.

¿Cuál es la comedia que estás filmando? Se llama Your Highness con James Franco, es una película de fantasía sobre un príncipe arrogante.

¿Qué tan difícil fue convivir con el lado dramático de las películas Brothers y Love and Other Impossible Pursuits, más allá de algunos tonos de comedia? La verdad, estaba todo escrito en el guión, pero es lógico tenerle empatía al personaje. Con Love and Other Impossible Pursuits, me acuerdo la primera vez que hablamos con el director, siempre quisimos que no se viera como una comedia romántica, para mantener la realidad del personaje. Y tuve suerte de contar con el apoyo de grandes actores, también. Pero claro, por supuesto me sentí bastante miserable durante el rodaje de las dos películas porque era imposible no llevarme el personaje a casa, pero el apoyo que tuve hizo que el trabajo fuera mucho más fácil.

Habiendo tenido que besar en una misma película a dos galanes como Jake Gyllenhaal y Tobey Maguire... ¿no te preguntan quién besa mejor? (Riendo) ¡Todo el tiempo! Filmar la escena de un beso, hoy en día, no es gran cosa, pero el beso con Jake fue el peor, por la situación de besar a un hermano, sin saber si podrías recuperarte después de algo así. Y en la película, la verdad, es difícil perdonar a cualquiera de los tres personajes. Por suerte detrás de cámaras nos llevamos mucho mejor, porque a Tobey lo conozco desde los 14 años y a Jake, desde los 18. Hace más de diez años que nos conocemos y es la primera vez que hago una película con amigos. Yo estoy más acostumbrada a trabajar con gente que no conozco, donde de pronto me tocan escenas íntimas en la cama y tengo que pretender que dormimos juntos desde hace años. Es parte del oficio, pero fue interesante aprovechar en este trabajo la historia que tenemos los tres como amigos.

Hablando de amigos, en la otra película Love and Other Impossible Pursuits aparece Lisa Kudrow, famosa por su personaje de Phoebe en la comedia Friends. ¿Con ella también eran ‘friends’? No, pero siempre la admiré. Y fue fantástico, porque Lisa ya estaba contratada cuando yo empecé con la película y tuvimos escenas muy pero muy emocionantes en el primer día que la conocí. Me ayudó mucho, hubo como una dinámica familiar y obviamente fueron muy amigables conmigo, aunque yo era la chica nueva.

El punto en común entre las películas Brothers y Love and Other Impossible Pursuits, es tu rol como madre ¿Me equivoco o es la primera vez que apareces en cine como una mujer madura y casada, con hijos? Sí, es cierto, aunque no lo tomo como un gran desafío porque mi madre es supermaternal y es el buen ejemplo que tuve toda mi vida. Pero definitivamente me atrae la idea de interpretar personajes adultos porque en la vida real también trato de serlo y supongo que es bueno practicarlo en cine.

¿Cómo te imaginas dentro de diez años entonces? No lo sé. Ni siquiera sé si quiero trabajar. No sé si voy a poder seguir trabajando (como actriz). ¿Quién sabe? Es imposible imaginarlo. A lo mejor prefiera quedarme en casa, esperando a mi futuro esposo, que seguramente será médico y judío (riendo), cocinándole un buen estrudel o alguna comida judía.

Natalie Portman, quien protagonizará y producirá una película basada en la nueva versión del best-seller. Orgullo, Prejuicio y Zombies

Si últimamente se han dado una vuelta por su librería favorita, habrán visto un libro bastante llamativo: Orgullo, Prejuicio y Zombies (Pride and prejudice and zombies).

La historia combina el romanticismo de la obra original de Jane Austen ”Orgullo y prejuicio” (Pride and prejudice) , con la barbarie, la sangre y el humor negro añadido por Seth Grahame-Smith.

Esta loca y original idea, fue retomada por Natalie Portman, quien protagonizará y producirá una película basada en la nueva versión del best-seller.

La obra se ha descrito como una expansión de la versión del clásico de Austen. Ambientada en la Inglaterra deel siglo XIX, cuenta la interminable historia de la búsqueda de una mujer del amor y la independencia por encima de un virus mortal que convierte a los no muertos en adictos a la carne fresca.

Natalie Portman interpretará a la heroina Elizabeth Bennet, que se ve apartada de su misión de erradicar la amenaza zombie con la llegada del arrogante Mr. Darcy.

Recordar que ya anteriormente Keira Knightley estuvo al frente del reparto de la más reciente versión cinematográfica de Orgullo y Prejuicio.

Natalie Portman is Ballet Beautiful woman

http://nataliaportman.blogspot.com/

Natalie Portman is Ballet Beautiful

Natalie Portman looks stunningly beautiful at the opening night celebration of the New York City Ballet at Lincoln Center on Tuesday (November 24).

The 28-year-old actress wore a Vena Cava dress, Charles by Charles David shoes, and a Carole Tanenbaum vintage collection bag.

Nat, who co-stars in the new film, Brothers , with Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal, commented, “It was actually really exciting ’cause this is the first time I’ve ever worked with actors that I knew before. I met Tobey when I was 14, I met Jake when I was 18, so there was a level of familiarity from the first day, which was really a nice way to enter into it. We also had a nice rehearsal period for a few weeks before we started, where we got to go over each other’s houses and talk about it and try things out!”

First pictures of Natalie Portman in the film Black Swan


Natalie Portman en la película Cisne NegroLa actriz Natalie Portman se presenta con su próxima película, el que se anuncia como inquietante thriller “Black Swan” (Cisne Negro).

En la cual aparecerá protagonizando escenas de sexo con la atractiva Mila Kunis (aspecto más que explotado para la pre-promoción de la cinta).

Cisne Negro está dirigida por Daren Aronofsky y cuenta con un guión elaborador por Mark Heyman junto con el propio Aronofsky. En el reparto principal del filme aparecen, además de Natalie Portman y Mila Kunis, la actriz Winona Ryder y Vincent Cassel, entre otros.

El argumento de Cisne Negro nos habla de una exitosa bailarina de Nueva York. La cual es considerada como la mejor en su especialidad. Todo cambia cuando de pronto percibe que hay una joven que asciende rápidamente en el escalafón y le hace sombra.

Como decimos uno de los aspectos que más se usaron para la promoción de la película fueron las escenas sexuales que Natalie Portman y Mila Kunis protagonizarán en el filme.

Cisne Negro debutará en los cines de todo el mundo desde finales del próximo año 2010. Aunque por ahora no tiene una fecha fijada para su estreno.


Film and TV Post a comment

Natalie Portman at Swan NegroLa film actress Natalie Portman is presented with his upcoming film, which bills itself as disturbing thriller "Black Swan" (Black Swan).

Which appear in sex scenes starring the sexy Mila Kunis (that look more exploited for pre-promotion of the tape).

Black Swan is directed by Daren Aronofsky and producer with a screenplay by Mark Heyman himself with Aronofsky. The main cast of the film are, in addition to Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, actress Winona Ryder and Vincent Cassel, among others.

Black Swan's argument tells of a successful dancer in New York. Which is considered the best in their field. Everything changes when suddenly feels there is a girl who rises quickly through the ranks and makes shadow.

As we say one of the most widely used to promote the film were the sex scenes and Mila Kunis Natalie Portman will star in the film.

Black Swan will debut in theaters around the world since the end of next year 2010. Although by now not have a date set for its release.






The Portman will play a ballet dancer who has a rivalry with a classmate, an increasingly tense confrontation as it approaches the day of a great show. The problem is we do not know if that companion is a supernatural occurrence or was the result of the troubled mind of the protagonist. In addition to Portman, Mila Kunis star in this film, Vincent Cassel, Winona Ryder (another of my idolized) and Barbara Hershey. Hopefully this new film by Aronofsky meets the expectations ...

Natalie Portman La película de 1994 del director francés Luc Besson, “Leon” (también conocida como “The Professional”)

LeonLa película de 1994 del director francés Luc Besson, “Leon” (también conocida como “The Professional”) y que contaba con las actuaciones de Jean Reno, Gary Oldman y una muy joven Natalie Portman, está próxima a sufrir la falta de creatividad que parece azotar a los guionistas de Hollywood, un remake está en camino. Este tendría el nombre de “Hanna” y cuenta como una joven de 14 años tiene que ser trasladada a una familia de acogida que vive en el campo, pero luego de algunos problemas se da cuenta que su padre la entrenó para ser un arma letal. Esta nueva versión de “The Professional” estaría bajo la dirección de Joe Wright, lo que llama un poco la atención ya que los trabajos anteriores del director están más cercanos al drama (Orgullo y Prejuicio, Expiación) que a la acción.

Image l

Imageo his 28 years, the actress was invaded by the maternal instinct and say they feel mature and responsible enough to start a family.
The role he plays in his latest film, 'Brothers', is a strong, motherly woman, which seems to have fueled the desire to be mother of the actress, the site reported Sunday ABC.es.

Natalie Portman often get roles in which women are depicted as the typical "girl cute and feminine," in his words. But in his latest film, 'Brothers', which appears alongside Jake Gyllenhaal and Tobey Maguire, its path skips a beat. This time she plays a strong, motherly woman who becomes involved in a war drama.

It is this character that provoked a major change in the life of Natalie, who claims that her maternal instinct was strengthened after playing this woman. "Being able to get into the skin of a real woman who is really strong and a good mother was a great opportunity," said the actress.

Natalie Portman and the rule of three apples, perfect to avoid stress in film

http://nataliaportman.blogspot.com/



Tobey Maguire stars in "Brothers" with Natalie Portman and Jake Gyllenhaal but Maguire Portman knows the past the cake, since she was 14.

And now that go promoting the movie, just an anecdote that I liked it, mostly because I like Natalie Portman or fu ni fa, I find it intensité or perhaps too perfect, I know. But this listen, won me over.

Although ... think of a girl of 14 also releasing something that shows me what to intensité where is genetic and unavoidable.

It is the rule of three blocks. And this is how Maguire has told:

I remember the day I met taught me something important, the "rule of three apples." We were in a film and I do not think I liked too much and was about to say something ...

And she said, "Wait a second. Do not know the rule of three apples?"

"What is the rule of three apples?"

"You should not talk about the movie until you have three blocks away from the cinema"

Is not that right? This is something I'd recommend to anyone who ends up as a movie is not out yet when the word "end", such that it will not leave, they turn in the chair with the "What's that?", Necessitating a speedy trial before he could breathe.

With how good it feels to digest a film for at least a few minutes, for more often, and it can then talk about it. At least in my case ...

The story I read on the blog of Nathaniel Rogers. But then I found the exact time on MTV, so much better, here Maguire telling it:

Do you belong to those who need time before we talk about a movie or not?

he winter style of Natalie Portman

http://nataliaportman.blogspot.com/




Natalie Portman

If Laia told us yesterday that the white coats are fashionable, to say the roses. No color is very wearable, but in my years I quite like its mixed with gray. It is a proposal that also mixes well with black jeans, white to brown, in several of its hues.

However, Kate Moss and Sienna Miller are on a trend and alternative style. Something that is the signature style of these two "English". To show a style complete with a beautiful winter coat pink, the best example is Natalie Portman, who with his gentleness, simplicity and loose leaves us very high on the pink ribbon.

The young actress joined this coat of tweet in full color pink Juicy Couture jeans, gray boots, gray wedge sole in a darker tone and a white light padding. This is the look with which we will see in one scene of his next work Black Swan shot in New York who will co-star Winona Rider.

One cold morning in winter is worth a look perfect in a film about ballet could not miss the pink.

ver since Natalie Portman signed on to play Dr. Don Blake's love interes

Ever since Natalie Portman signed on to play Dr. Don Blake's love interest Jane Foster in Kenneth Branagh's upcoming Thor, the actress hasn't done a ton of interviews, so we haven't had much of a chance to learn about her take on the character.

At the press conference for Jim Sheridan's Brothers, a terrific drama in which Portman is quite astounding as a young mother whose husband is a soldier who has gone missing and presumed dead in Afghanistan, we tried our best to broach the subject, trying to find out why she decided to do it, having already starred in one comic book movie (V For Vendetta) as well as starring in one of the biggest sci-fi franchises of all time (Do we even have to name it?). We also were hoping to find out what sort of research or comics she might have read for the role, and whether it might be a big part, considering that much of the movie will probably take place in Asgard.

Unfortunately, the press conference environment is not the best place to get into this sort of thing--and we felt quite guilty even asking about it--but she did tell us at least why she did want to be in the movie:

"I just thought it sounded like a weird idea because Kenneth Branagh's directing it, so I was just like, 'Kenneth Branagh doing 'Thor' is super-weird. I've gotta do it'," she told us, before a journalist interrupted her answering our question because he didn't even know who Jane Foster was (The heathen!). Sadly, she never got to the rest of our question, but hopefully, we'll get another chance to talk to her before the movie comes out.

You can learn more about Brothers when we run some of the best bits of the press conference as well as our exclusive interview with Jim Sheridan over on ComingSoon.net.

Natalie Portman recently explained that she was compelled to join Thor

http://nataliaportman.blogspot.com/
Natalie Portman Spills Thor Casting News

Natalie PortmanNatalie Portman recently explained that she was compelled to join Thor because the Kenneth Branagh-directed movie seemed "super weird." Now she's dropping Thor casting news to MTV.

Well I'm really excited. Kat Dennings [(Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist, the upcoming Defendor)] is going to be in it with me and she's a good friend and an amazing actress, so I'm looking forward to that.

What role Dennings will play is unknown. A casting notice found in October mentions the role of college student Marcy Lewis, who interns with a scientist and "deals with her situation both by using subtle irony and by being an overt wiseass." Considering Portman's casting as nurse Jane Foster, coupled with Portman's enthusiasm over Dennings' casting, the role of Marcy could be a potential lock.

Thor starts production in mid-January and has filled out an impressive cast of newcomers and Academy-Award winners, including Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Hopkins, Tom Hiddleston, Jaimie Alexander, Ray Stevenson, Stuart Townsend, Tadanobu Asano, and recent addition Idris Elba.

"Any time I get a phone call, it doesn't come up as a normal number; it's like a five-digit code. I'm like, 'What kind of spy organization is this?' I've never seen that before. I've had phone calls from people in the government, and they don't have that. Marvel is some crazy underground world."—Natalie Portman on being contacted by Marvel for her role in Thor [WENN via Contact Music]

"Not too long ago, my mum ran into one nun at home, who'd known me, and the nun told her, 'Oh my God, I watched the "She-Wolf" video, and Shakira looks phenomenal in it! I love how she looks, how she does the splits, and how flexible her legs are.' This was an 80-year-old nun. Times are changing."—Shakira [Guardian UK]

"I don't know if you know, but I'm not exactly Bob Dylan — I'm already a pop musician. I'm not on [rock-snob archive label] Razor & Tie. I want to reach as many people as possible. Listen, I can play you Wes Montgomery's Smokin' at the Half Note. I can play you Van Halen's 'Panama.' I love Big Bill Broonzy, and I love Charlie Patton, but I'm not interested in carrying on these people's legacy. I'm interested in being informed by all of this music, while still meeting the requirements of what a pop song is. I don't mind compromising."—John Mayer [Details]

Natalie Portman: Su trabajo en la saga Star Wars la volvió aún más cotizada

Natalie Portman: Su trabajo en la saga Star Wars la volvió aún más cotizada, y ella mezcla sus apariciones en taquillazos con películas más artísticas y de menor cuantía presupuestaria, lo que la hace bastante rentable para los parámetros de Hollywood. Su aparición en The other Boleyn Girl generó 78 millones en taquilla, y ella genera en promedio US$ 28 por cada dólar que gana.
