Hello Natalie Fans!
7 December - that’s not too bad! It’s been another busy Natalie month with the excitement of Thor filming imminent. There’s a lot for Natalie fans to be thankful for, but if you missed a lot of the monthly news - fear not, that’s why we’re here!
November Natalie News
#5 - Foooood
Natalie’s sneaky pivot into Chef Natalie continues to gain ground with a dumpling cook-off and a video celebrating World Vegan Day below.
#4 - Virtual Author
Natalie kept throwing logs on the Fables fire with a couple notable appearances. First she read excerpts (watch here) of her children’s book for a virtual Barnes & Noble Storytime appearance.
That’s not all - she also read excerpts and was interviewed during the virtual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books Stories & Ideas and you can watch that appearance here.
#3 - 5 Questions
Rounding out her media appearances was a podcast appearance on Dan Schwabel’s show. I tend to prefer longer-form podcasts but this was a fun listen as Natalie answered 5 questions.
#2 - Candid Down Under
These days we try not to promote candid photos of Natalie, but this photo from Australia was just too damn adorable. 2020 needs more smiles like this.
#1 - Autograph Hunters Rejoice
The most surprising news of the month (hell, maybe of the year) is that Natalie will be signing merch for autograph hunters at Star Wars Autograph Universe. It’s not cheap though - $550 to have Natalie sign a photo of your choice? Deal or no deal?
Quote of the Month
Winter weather makes me think of one of Natalie’s earliest roles, Marty from the underrated indie, Beautiful Girls. If you haven’t seen it yet, seek it out now!
“Your Dad's kind of a sad guy, your brother's kinda missing that thing, that thing that having a mom gives you, it's a lonely house you got if you don't mind me saying.” - Natalie Portman as Marty
Blast from the Past
November also saw some new photos from Natalie’s Terrence Malick film, Song to Song. The film was a bit disappointing to me (and I’m a fan of Malick’s dream-like style) but boy, did Natalie look stunning in the film.
Check out more photos from this film here.
Next month, a new year and Natalie gets back in front of the cameras again!
