There's been a lot of talk recently about the upcoming new movie depicting Steve Jobs. The biopic was initially said to be produced by Sony Pictures, but has been acquired by Universal Studios. With Aaron Sorkin as the screenwriter, and Danny Boyle as the director, the flick is said to have Michael Fassbender take on the main role.

And now new information has surfaced, suggesting that Natalie Portman will be playing Steve Jobs' daughter, Lisa. Deadline.com is the publication that has come up with this information:

Natalie Portman is in talks to join Universal’s Steve Jobs biopic. Character details were not revealed, but it is expected to be a major role. Should a deal get done, the Oscar winner’s casting would mark another positive reversal of fortune for the Danny Boyle-helmed project. Deadline revealed last week that it had been put in turnaround by Sony Pictures, to the shock of many in the industry. Universal picked it up Monday.

There's already a lot of controversy surrounding the upcoming movie, as Leonardo DiCaprio and Christian Bale both rejected the main role. If Natalie Portman also signs on, it would be the second movie Fassbender and Portman have collaborated together on after an untitled Terence Malick project.

I would again watch any movie she's in (other than the Fantom Menace), as she is insanely talented
