Natalie Portman seems too intelligent and level-headed to engage in the typical petty Hollywood rivalry/squabble. I imagine that with two very smart and talented actresses who have a lot going for them and know it, they probably had a lot of mutual respect and things in common.

I'm not sure how I feel about Natalie's dress or Scarlett's hair here, though...even if they become BFFs maybe they shouldn't give each other fashion advice

I hate that fairy book tattoo on Scarlet's left inner forearm. I always think it's a child's sticker when I see it. Natalie is so pretty. Scarlett's hair looks horrible.

Natalie pulls that dress off so well. I like them both but Natalie more.

It looks like a fun girls night out! They both look beautiful.

I like them both too, but Scarlett more

Together they look gorgeous!

natalie looks incredible! i don't think anyone else could pull this off as well.

OMG...I want Natalie's dress. It's so gorgeous!

I don't like Scarlett's hair, but I like Natalie's! I don't like Natalie's dress, but I like Scarlett's! Thankfully, I love both of their shoes! Is Scarlett wearing one of Natalie's vegan shoes?

Natalie looks so pretty! She makes Scarlett look big.

Wow, they're stunning.

I don't like the blue/black "scarves"...

Nat is gorgous as usual. I LOVE her! I like Scarlett's make-up but I still don't like her.

like scarlet's dress not sure about natali's.

I LOVE Natalie's dress. It's to die for. She always takes risks. Scarlett's is that same 1950's silhouette we always see.

I love Natalie's look she is wonderful she is one actress who isn't afraid to take risks in her clothing. I think she would make a paper sack look great..I agree with her being intelligent,talented she takes my breath away..I can't wait to see this movie.

They both look horrible.

Oh I am NOT liking that dress on Natalie. And she usually looks pretty in most of her dresses.

I think they are both beautiful women, especially Scarlett but those outfits not so much~

I'm loving Natalie's dress - it's sexy but not trashy.

they look so cute and gorgeous!

Honestly, could any two women look LESS like sisters? Hayden or Keira with Natalie would have been much better.

Natalie is a great actress.

They are both overrated wooden actress that get by because of their "looks" and people think they are respectable and so great just because well they are...in comparison to Lindsay Lohan. I will say that Natalie is a very cute girl. Scarlett to me is a plain version of the gorgeous Charlize Theron. Just blonde hair and big boobs and people think seh's amazing? I do love Scarlett's dress and fashion sense. The 50s look works perfectly for her body type.

I don't think they're overrated and get by on their looks at all :/
Are you a professional when it comes to acting and what now? If not, I don't think you can give an opinion on their talents.
I would suppose your opinion is made from jealousy.

I don't like what both girls are wearing. Scarlett's look is Ok, but she should try something more natural, she naturally pretty and she doesn't need that much make up. Natalie's dress is a total miss, but she's still lovely.

love both of them!they are NOT overrated!

Can't wait for the movie to come out. Love them both!

Not a big fan of either of their looks here.

oh GOD ....then tell me who is NOT talentless and overrated?!

I thing that Scarlett looks like the ugly duckly next to Natalie.

Bana...*drools like Homer*

i admire these girls so much

They are both great...and what makes them so great together is that they are opposites. And Scarlett does NOT look 'big' beside Natalie. People are so jealous of Scarlett because she is beautiful, has boobs, and is not fat! She's not Natalie - a vegan who has has no body fat whatsoever, and absolutely no chest. Different bodies - both are beautiful!

I think they both look FAN-TAS-TIC.

I have never liked Scarlett. I don't really think she is all that beautiful and she is definately not talented. I do love Natalie though. I think that she is also a good role model with both her brains and beauty.

Although I admire Natalie so much more than Scarlett, I think both girls are gorgeous and remarkably talented. In these pictures, however, I think Natalie outshines Scarlett...she pulls of that dark, mysterious look so well and I love her unique outfit. Also, I agree that Natalie is far too mature to even entertain the idea of a Hollywood rivalry. Why is it so hard to believe that these girls can get along?

PS. Eric Bana is hott!! Lucky girls!

I think they're both lovely... I prefer Natalie's acting much more, though.
When it comes to matching siblings, Hollywood just doesn't seem to care whether or not they look alike & that's something that's always bothered me. Keira my look more like Natalie in the face, but maybe their heights are too different? Maybe Leelee Sobieski or Mena Suvari with Scarlett?

I don't think they're "wooden" or "overrated" at all, but rather two of the best actresses of their generation. They may have a lot more to learn--which comes with both life and professional experience and education--but they're very young, and they're working from solid bases of talent, dedication, and what appears to be very good taste in material (excepting Natalie's foray into Star Wars ). Even their beauty is superior to most other actresses their age, being much more individual and human, not plastic and cookie-cutter. Go Natalie and Scarlett!

For anyone who thinks these two are poor and overrated actresses, who would you consider to be better that is at the same professional level in their careers and the same age range?

They are probably the two most beautiful gifted working actresses today, imho. Great to see them together and how awesome that there was no rivalry between them.

Natalie is just amazing in every way

They are both such beautiful girls...but I can honestly say Scarlett trumps Natalie in this one!!!

They both look like Halloween clowns.

OMG i must be the only one.... Natalie's dress looks hideous to me... It's like a flapper and a hooker had a baby and out popped an ugly ass dress.

I think they're both gorgeous, and they're two of my favorite young Hollywood actresses. Mostly because they don't get caught up in the 'scene'.

On a side note (and I posted a blog about this)...does anyone thing Natalie looks pregnant in these photos? Not necessarily because she has a bump, but the way she has her hand placed on her belly.

Ugh, I always forget to subscribe.

let's just admit that these girls are really talented. They have proven their acting abilities with the films theve done individually. maybe we dont believe much in the potentials of young hollywood actress due to some drunk-driving-coke-using celebrites who parties like there's no tomorrow. I do believe that these girls are rare actresses whom I think would stay in the limelight for a long time. They're like the A-List Veterans following he likes of Cate Blanchett, Julia Robert, Meryl Streep, Charlize Theron, and so on and so forth.

Nicola 2108..Please.

How dare you come on an opinion based blog and tell someone they CAN'T have an opinion! Since when do you have to be a "professional" to know if someone doesn't look very good?

Your comment is one of the most ridiculous comments I've read in a while! This is a gossip blog and ANYONE is entitled to their opinion! I'm so sick of people saying JEALOUSY is the root of anything negative said on these blogs when that's about the most UNTRUE statement here! People CAN think someone is unattractive without being jealous of them you know! You need to step up to the 21 century and get with it, or step out of these blogs if you can't take someone having a difference of opinion.

Natalie is a great actress and I personally don't think Scarlet has any where near the talent that Nat has. Someone said people are jealous of Scarlet's boobs...LOL (ridiculous statement, boobs have nothing to do with acting ability)...I just had my (natural) triple D's reduced to a "C" and no, I'm not jealous of any one's boobs, I love the ones I have now

Btw, if anyone's interested, you can watch a video of the press conference (and photo-call) here:
