Kiera Knightley. They're practically clones.
Who would you cast for Natalie Portman's mother?
When I write my books, I usually "cast" someone in the role. I'm thinking about a new book for my Realm of Janos series. Any ideas who you would cast as Natalie Portman's mother? It doesn't necessarily have to be someone who is 50-60 now, because I'd be telling their story when they were more in their 20's.
Any thoughts?

And of course, Keira Knightley played Natalie Portman's bodyguard/doubleganger in The Phantom Menace.
Monica Belluci! She has the beauty and grace, with more of an old world feel.
I would cast Helen Mirren for all the roles ever.

Or, if you're visualizing a character with a sterner, more matronly countenance: Judy Davis or Lena Headley Headey (I'm a cactushead...)
Sofia Loren, except she may be too old now.
Thanks everyone! You've given me some great ideas I hadn't considered. 
Lena Headey (Headley?)
I was going to say Anna Mouglalis, too, but she's only in her 30s. She'd be more like a sister.

And the great thing about mythical casting is that you can scroll them up or down in age as needed. Love it!
