7. Natalie Portman
Natalie Portman is one of those actresses who everyone loves, a talented veteran who's been in the movie business since she was just thirteen. She's also super hot, super smart, and although she's played a wide range of characters since she first started out, we're yet to see her in villain mode. Don't get me wrong: I'm fine with Natalie playing heroic characters, but - having seen her kicking ass in
V for Vendetta and going insane in
Black Swan - I think she could pull this off. I'm picturing her as a quiet assassin type, though not the kind who ends up regretting her employment choices and trying to make a new life for herself, but somebody who tricks her targets into falling in love with her or something before she batters them to death in a motel room with a chair leg. Admit it: seeing Natalie Portman do something like that, free of morality, would make for a welcomed change of pace. More fun than Jane Foster, anyway.
