Natalie Portman’s Golden Globe Style Through the Years: Chanel, Prada and More

Natalie Portman is one of the most recognizable actresses in Hollywood, having starred in major films such as “V for Vendetta,” “Black Swan” and “Thor: Love and Thunder.” Her big break came in 1994 when she starred in “Leon: The Professional” as a child actress.

In 1999, she received one of her first major acting award nominations at the Golden Globes for Best Supporting Actress — Motion Picture for her role in “Anywhere but Here.” This was just the first of many nominations for her acting work, as she would also receive nods for “Closer,” “Black Swan,” “Jackie” and “May December.” She would win Best Supporting Actress — Motion Picture for “Closer” and Best Actress — Motion Picture Drama for “Black Swan.”
