One of the most appealing roles in years recently came up in Hollywood. A lot of the big names in the actress department was trying for this leading role in the remake of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I don’t think some Hollywood actresses even knew about this part, because I think a few other people would have been good for this part too. There are no doubts this part would have been great for Natalie Portman and I really wished she would have got it.

Watching this talented actor or actress (if you will) has been great over the years. Many of us have watched a lot of actors and actresses group up on camera. Natalie Portman is a good example of that and she has been in acting for a long time. Her talents shined out as a kid and now I’m not sure why they couldn’t shine bright enough to land this part in the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I am very curious to see who these people think are better than Natalie Portman. I would have chosen Natalie over Neve Campbell, Drew Barrymore,  and Christina Applegate, if they would have applied for this hot new role in Hollywood. Some of the people who really did try out for this part was Emma Watson and Ellen Page. So who did these directors choose as the star and leading role of this new movie about to come out? The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will be played by a 25 year-old actress named Rooney Mara. I’m sure her and her family are very happy right now, because this is one of the biggest Hollywood roles to have come out in the last 5 years or at least going back to 2006.

The girl standing on the left and in the darker, copper colored dress is Rooney Mara. The person with the white dress and to the right side of the photograph is Kate Mara. It’s the person on the left Rooney Mara; who has just landed the biggest role in Hollywood for this year and for probably the last several. I do think Kate Mara has that look and she will be in something big in the near future too.

If you want to watch Natalie Portman, you can still see her in the new movie Black Swan. It looks like a very entertaining movie and one you will need to put your thinking caps on and try to keep up with this high paced thriller, at least that is the impression I get from watching the movie trailer of the Black Swan.

The new 2010 Black Swan movie will be something movie lovers will have to watch this year. The Black Swan does include Natalie Portman; while the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will not have Natalie Portman as their leading actress in this huge Hollywood movie.
