A new poster has arrived online for Black Swan. Previously four limited edition International teaser posters for Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan were released but this new one is considerably different. Starring Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel, and Winona Ryder, the thriller tells the story of a ballerina [Portman] whose hopes of landing the lead in Swan Lake may or may not be making her crazy. Black Swan's early reviews have been very good.
Update: A secret viral website has been discovered that shows new images of Natalie Portman.
Here’s the synopsis for Black Swan:
Black Swan follows the story of Nina [Portman], a ballerina in a New York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her retired ballerina mother Erica [Barbara Hershey] who zealously supports her daughter’s professional ambition. When artistic director Thomas Leroy [Vincent Cassel] decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre [Winona Ryder] for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition: a new dancer, Lily [Kunis], who impresses Leroy as well. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side with a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.
