Here’s a first look at Natalie Portman as iconic Jackie O
In ‘Jackie,’ Portman plays the First Lady in the time following JFK’s assassination.
Jackie Kennedy Onassis left some big—and stylish—shoes to fill, but it looks like Natalie Portman will wear them well in the new film Jackie.
Set to be released in 2017, the film will follow the American icon just after the assassination of her husband President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
In a first look of Portman as Jackie, the Oscar-winning actress wears a classic red suit and pearls, her hair coiffed into Kennedy’s traditional bouffant.
Jackie is directed by Pablo Larrain and produced by Darren Aronofsky, who worked with Portman for Black Swan. Peter Sarsgaard plays Robert Kennedy
