Natalie Portman Hated the Idea of Being a Director’s Muse

Natalie Portman has worked with a long list of directors in her career, from George Lucas to Darren Aronofsky. This helped the actor avoid being one director’s sole muse, which was a term that she had issues with.

Portman has had a few male mentors in her long film career. But the Oscar-winner once credited filmmaker Mike Nichols as one of the only mentors who didn’t convey any creepy tendencies. Portman worked with the filmmaker in the 2004 movie Closer, which she co-starred along with Julia Roberts. Years earlier, Portman also worked with Nichols on the play The Seagull.
