Natalie Portman’s Young Years: Photos From Her Early Acting Days To Now

From a young ‘Professional’ to a Marvel superhero, there is nothing Natalie Portman can’t do! The Israeli/American actress, born June 9, 1981, got her start at just 12 years old in ‘The Professional’. She would find herself on the international stage after being cast as Padme Amidala in the ‘Star Wars’ prequel saga.

She went on to star in ‘Where The Heart Is’, ‘V For Vendetta’, and ‘Black Swan’, the film for which she won the Oscar for Best Actress. Natalie jumped into the superhero world as Jane Foster in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films ‘Thor’ (2011), ‘Thor: The Dark World’ (2013), and the upcoming ‘Thor: Love & Thunder’ (2022). Natalie has practically grown up in the spotlight. Here, the young star is all smiled as she attends the Beverly Hills premiere of ‘The Professional’ on Nov. 3, 1994. She had on a little corset top and carried a fuzzy vest.
