NATALIE PORTMAN - PORTMAN TURNED DOWN KUNG-FU SNOW WHITE

NATALIE PORTMAN turned down the chance to star as an ass-kicking SNOW WHITE in a kung-fu version of the fairytale. Martial arts movie maker Jet Li was rumoured to be directing the adaptation, with Portman in the frame play the lead. The actress confirms she was offered the part, and loves the idea - but won't be terrorising evil queens and dwarves anytime soon. She says, "It (the movie) exists and it was offered. I'm not planning to do it. It is a fantastic idea. They should do kung-fu versions of every fairytale."
