The Wachowskis Want Natalie Portman For Jupiter Ascending

24Frames (via ThePlaylist) reports that The Wachowskis' next project could end up being Jupiter Ascending which was revealed in the fall. They go on to say that Natalie Portman is wanted for the lead. It was originally expected to start production this spring with the potential to become a Matrix type franchise. However, there seems to be concerns that the film could conflict with Thor 2 which is expected to shoot in the fall. I doubt that Thor 2 will be very grueling for her unless Portman ends up with fight scenes that need to be choreographed in pre-production.
