padme.jpgIn a recent chat with MTV Movies, actress Natalie Portman revealed that she will not be working on any future Star Wars films, and spoke about how she feels about do-overs and sequels in general.

“When something works you don’t touch it, you try to create something new that’s positive.” said Portman. Apparently, however she makes some exceptions, as she will soon begin filming a remake of a 2004 Denmark film called “Brothers.” Maybe she doesn’t think it counts because it wasn’t made in the U.S., or maybe she just thought the original plain sucked. Who knows.

After airing her thoughts on remakes, Natalie moved on to the subject of sequels.  Speaking of the Star Wars sequels, she said:

“I spent ten years working on these films, it’s time to let it continue on its own.”

She also feels the same way about Luc Besson’s “Leon”, in which she played the role of Mathilda.  While there have been rumors of a “Leon” sequel lately, Portman insists that if there is, it will be without her:

“I really love that film, and I would work with Luc Besson again, in a second, but [not on a sequel].”
