Natalie Portman: 'Porn sites interfere'

Rex Features

Natalie Portman has claimed that her reservations about filming naked scenes are based on concerns that the images will end up on pornographic websites.

The actress reportedly turned down a role in Wayne Wang's 1999 movie Anywhere But Here because of the nudity involved but accepted the project when that scene was dropped.

Portman told V: "It's annoying because online bulls**t interferes with what I want to do artistically.

"I'm not opposed to sexuality or nudity in a film, but I'm very opposed to pornography sites and you're pretty much giving them material if you do any of that. It's always a big dilemma for me."

Of her sex scene in Darren Aronofsky's upcoming Black Swan, Portman added: "It's not raunchy - it's extreme."

Portman added that she "would hope not" to opt for plastic surgery as she grows older, but did not rule it out completely.
