Natalie Portman's high-intensity acting style found the perfect vehicle in Darren Aronofsky's nightmarish ballet-themed body horror Black Swan, a role that deservedly won her the Academy Award for Best Actress. But what might happen if the two reunited for a second act?

Olumide Ajulo joins us in this week's episode to discuss Portman's journey to the dark side, the unintentional camp value of the swan transformation scenes and the joy of Winona Ryder being the most Winona she can be in a brief but full-tilt supporting turn as a faded Ballet queen in a suspiciously crooked wig...

After burning through some drinking games - mostly concieved to provide a distraction from all the gross finger stuff in this film - we also pitch our own fantasy Black Swan sequels, including Winona's origin story, an uplifting redemption movie with a Pitch Perfect twist and an attempted comeback for Portman's Nina Sayers' that inevitably winds up taking a dark and twisted turn...

-----

Every week on Beyond The Box Set, we explore a classic standalone movie from cinema past and compete to pitch the most ridiculous prequel, sequel and spin-off ideas to bring them back to the big screen. We're a UK top ten Film and TV podcast that's been certified 'Binge-worthy' by the Apple Podcast app, available for free download and streaming from all major podcasting platforms - including iTunes, Spotify, Podbean and more.
