Star Wars |
|
by Gareth Von Kallenbach
I was able to get an interview with
Natalie Portman while she was filming
"Where the Heart Is". It is not the
standard interview and I thought you
folks would like some new insights from
the talented actress.
Question. Chocolate or Cookies ‘N’ Cream
(my fav.)
Answer. “Vanilla”. |

Q. Did you find the final version of the
film to be confusing for your
Characters?
A. “No not really, if you understand
everything that’s going on. Any avid
Star Wars fan after seeing it 7 times
would realize (laughter).”
Q. This
must have been a totally new
experience for you, working with so
many blue-screens. Did you find it
more difficult than you expected it
would? Be? Easier? (Please follow-up)
A. “We used a blue screen in Mars
Attacks.. That wasn’t a first”.
Q. Did you
have the chance to watch the first 3
Star Wars films before working on
PHANTOM? From what I understand you
never did see the original trilogy.
A. “Yes I did see the original trilogy
after I got casted as homework, Rick
made me watch them.”
Q. Some younger actors do not seem
to be treated as equals by
"seasoned" actors due to their age.
Did you find that this was a problem
on the set? Do you think you have
gained a new respect from the
filmmaking community after your
success in PHANTOM?
A.“ Oh, Everyone was wonderful. Got
along great with everyone.”
Q. Do
you still try to go out in public
and live like a normal kid?
A. “Yes, I love to go to Magazine
stores”.
Q. If you weren't working in the
Star Wars movies, what kind of job
could you see yourself doing
(besides acting)?
A. “McDonalds…???”
Q. Did
you ever in your wildest dreams
ever think you'd be Luke?
Skywalker's mom? :)
A. “ No, George is like, Your
gonna be the Queen. I was Like,
Great! Then Rick told me that she
gets married to Anakin. I was
Like, Ooook.”
Q.
How do you feel about having
toys ranging from action figures
to dolls? Fashioned in your
image? Which is your favorite?
And where in your home do You
keep your set on display?
A. “I have the Little Queen
Amidala Dressup Doll in my
room.. That’s pretty cool.”
Q.
What changes do you expect in
your character to go through in
future films?
A. “ Well from each Episode to
the next will change, Episode II
will be my last. But I think Ep.
II being a romance part of the
prequels will be different then
the rest of the trilogy.
