An Oscar-winning actress, Portman has starred in multiple comic book and science fiction films. Her most iconic role amongst genre fans, perhaps, is that of Padme–Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa’s mother–in the Star Wars prequels The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith.
But Portman has been no slouch with comic book films, either. She first broke into the four-color world with V for Vendetta, where she played Evey. Most recently, she has played Thor’s love interest, Jane Foster, in Marvel Studios’ Thor and Thor: The Dark World. She is expected to return for the series’ third installment, Thor: Ragnarok in 2017.
Portman’s other famous films include Black Swan, Cold Mountain, Garden State, and No Strings attached. Born in Jerusalem, Israel, Portman turns 34 today. Happy Birthday, Natalie Portman.
