Darren Aronofsky’s supernatural-ballet-thriller “Black Swan” will start shooting this November in New York according actress Mila Kunis who stars in the film alongside Natalie Portman.
“Yes, it is a go,” the actress told Collider. “I’m starting production in November and for the part, we started a month ago with the ballet training and I have two more months of training before choreography begins and we start actual production in New York City.”
Kunis also took the opportunity to try and put a wet blanket on the much-talked about “ecstasy-induced hungry aggressive sex” scenes revealed to be in the script. “Yes. I’ve heard about this from everybody. I mean, something got out. Here’s what I don’t fully understand and then I’ll answer this question. The script is so under lock and key that I can’t imagine anyone really truly ever getting a hold of it. I can’t really deny or confirm because I’m not allowed to talk about the script but all I’m going to say is that I can’t imagine anyone getting their hands on this project. Does that make sense?” Hmm, a cryptic spin job?
The actress then goes on to reveal that Aronofksy has since touched up the script, though the fate of the scene in question remains to be seen. “I just got a rewrite last weekend,” Kunis adds. “He just did the last rewrite on it and he’s very private about this one rewrite. So I don’t know how anyone could’ve ever gotten it. I have a copy but mine is so watermarked that you would know it came from me. Natalie has a copy and I’m guessing that there are, let’s say, two more out there.”
Filming on “Black Swan” will go for three months with the aim of a January wrap and probably some sort of late ’10 release. [Collider]
