What a change: Natalie Portman and Danny McBride appear together in Your Highness, a change from her Oscar-winning performance in Black SwanHer haunting portrayal of a mentally fragile ballet dancer in Black Swan won her the coveted best actress Oscar last month.
But Natalie Portman is not one to be typecast, and her new film sees her tackling an action comedy as a fearless female archer.
In Your Highness the actress stars alongside James Franco, who also won an Oscar nod for his dramatic role in 127 Hours.
Taking aim: Portman plays the archer in Your HighnessBut the pair are perhaps unlikely to repeat their Oscar success with their new movie, which sees them embark on a quest to rescue a kidnapped royal bride, played by Zooey Deschanel.
Your Highness is a comedic action/adventure set in medieval times, and also stars Danny McBride and Justin Theroux.
With the same director of Pineapple Express, the movie is unlikely to win any more Oscar nominations, although it is sure to have a broad appeal.
Not one for an Oscar: Portman stars alongside James Franco, Danny McBride, Justin Theroux and Zooey Deschanel
Game for a laugh: Zooey Deschanel plays the royal bride, who is kidnapped by an evil wizard, sparking a questThe trailer for the movie shows Portman in a plunging low-cut version of a medieval costume, while Deschanel is in an equally revealing red corset dress.
The movie has yet to hit screens but has already caused a stir after Portman's pert derrière was covered up by bosses with a digital bikini.
An original trailer showed the actress wearing a thong bikini beside a lake, but to lower the age rating her behind was digitally covered in a sensible pair of brown bikini bottoms.
