Mila Kunis will be starring as a Ballet Dancer aspiring to be a big star, but her one rival that stands in her way is the current star of the show played by Natalie Portman.
Kunis did an interview for Blackbook, and in it she talks about the rigors of becoming a world class dancer, and of course her love scene with Natalie Portman.

“I just skipped about 10 years of ballerina training and started as if I’m a professional,” Kunis says of her preparation for Black Swan. “Every day, I tore the ligaments in my calves and I would think, What am I doing to myself?”
Well, as an actress, you’re getting to work with Darren Aronofsky and it’s without question her biggest professional moment so far. “It’s like a real-life version of the third act of Swan Lake,” she says of the film’s story, which features Kunis as a rival to dancer Natalie Portman.
“I just feel like such a douche because I can’t talk about it. It’s not even that big of a deal. It’s a fucking movie. It’s not like I’m saving the world.”
There is one thing she can talk about, though, and that’s the most-heralded Sapphic love scene of 2010: “It’s two girls making out, and guys have a thing for that. And Nat is like every guy’s dream. She’s a nerd’s idea of heaven,” adds Kunis. “The whole thing is silly, but I can see why people care.”
For some reason us guys do have a thing for that, and it is silly. And if there is ANYTHING that is going to make a guy ok with taking his girl to a Ballet movie, its going to be Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman making out.
