Natalie Portman to play female bull rider in 'Bronco Belle'

Actress Natalie Portman is set to play female bull rider in Anna Rose Holmer's directorial venture "Bronco Belle".

Portman appeared in the recently released music video of James Blake's "My Willing Heart," which was also directed by Holmer, reported Deadline.

The movie is about a woman struggling to make her dreams a reality in a male-dominated sport.

Emily Blunt was previously tapped to star in the film, a role screenwriter Khurram Longi had written with the "Mary Poppins" actress in mind back in 2015. Longi was also supposed to make his directing debut with the film.
