As any of you that frequent the site with any regularity know, I never fail to post any news on the lovely Natalie Portman. And today is no different.

The Hollywood Reporter chimes in with casting news on Nat's next project, Black Swan. It seems that Mila Kunis has been cast as Portman's ballet rival in the Darren Aronofsky's supernatural drama.

Obviously, you had me at Portman and Aronofsky, but to be honest I'm a little leery of Mila and what she brings to the project. I guess we will see once and for all if the former That '70s Show star has real acting chops or not. If she can hold her own opposite Portman, then there will be no further doubt from me.

Black Swan starts filming this Fall for a tentative 2010 release although the film is currently lacking a distribution deal. Tell us what you think of Mila Kunis and whether she will be able to pull her own weight in this movie.

On a related note, it's probably a really good thing that Natalie Portman hasn't jumped on the Twitter bandwagon yet, because I'm pretty sure I'd the number of Nat stories on the site would triple. At least. I know, I need help.
