There’s something dirty sounding about the above headline, no? Sometimes I love my job! Following along in the footsteps of Suspiria and C Me Dance comes another supernatural thriller set within the chilling world of ballet!

THR reports that the woman who made many a young Jedi pull their padawans, Natalie Portman, is now attached to star in Darren Aronofsky’s latest, Black Swan.

The film centers on a veteran ballerina (Portman) who finds herself locked in a competitive situation with a rival dancer, with the stakes and twists increasing as the dancers approach a big performance. But it’s unclear whether the rival is a supernatural apparition or if the protagonist is simply having delusions.

Black Swan, whose script has been compared to The Others, could begin shooting as early as this year.
