NATALIE PORTMAN SIGNS-ON TO TWO TERRENCE MALICK FILMS: FIRST ROLES SINCE MATERNITY BREAK

Those of us worrying that she'd be taking a hiatus following the birth of her Son Aleph last year, need not fret. The Black Swan herself Natalie Portman, has signed on to star in not one, but two Terrence Malick Films, Knight of Cups and Lawless Malick who after taking a bit of a break following 2005's The New World and prior to that 1998's The Thin Red Line, is now back in full swing with three titles in the works.

Details are sparse right now on both Knight of Cups and Lawless, but like The Tree of Life, they include all-star casting.  The former already boasts Christian Bale, Isabel Lucas and Cate Blanchett, while the latter includes Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara and Bale once again.
