Kunis tapped to join Portman in 'Black Swan'

Mila Kunis is in discussions to star opposite Natalie Portman in Darren Aronofsky's supernatural thriller Black Swan, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The project revolves around a talented New York ballet dancer (Portman) who enters into a rivalry with a fellow ballerina, who may or may not be a figment of her imagination.

Kunis has been tapped to star as rival performer Lilly, who enters Portman's life as the pair rehearse for a major performance.

The star recently appeared opposite Jason Segel in Forgetting Sarah Marshall and can next be seen alongside Steve Carell and Tina Fey in comedy Date Night.

Production on Black Swan is scheduled to begin later this year.
