Natalie Portman is amazed at how bad her dancing is.
The actress plays a ballerina in ‘Black Swan’ and admits she has found the role more challenging than she expected because she hasn’t retained all the skills she learned as a child.

She said: “I’m in full ballet mode right now playing a ballerina in ‘Black Swan’. I danced until I was like 13, but I definitely remember being better than I am. I was like, ‘Wow, I was pretty good as a kid.’ Then I went into ballet class, and I was like, ‘I’m not good at all. I really suck.’ So it’s been challenging.”
Natalie also revealed that security around her other new movie ‘Thor’ is so tight, she struggles to be able to read her script.
She explained to Parade.com: “I think everyone has gotten more secretive just because of the preponderance of technology that can scam just about anything. It’s like you don’t get a script anymore that doesn’t have watermarks that would identify you if you ever tried to leak anything. The ‘Thor’ script is hard to read because it’s on some weird coloured paper and they have your name in huge letters across every page.
“And any time you get a phone call from Marvel, it doesn’t come up as a normal number, it’s like a five digit code. I’ve never seen that before. I’ve had phone calls from people in the government and they don’t have that. Marvel’s like some like crazy underground world.”
