During a recent Q&A hosted by BuzzFeed, Portman was asked which of her films she'd love to make a sequel to, with the actress confirming, "Maybe V for Vendetta."
Following world war, London is a police state occupied by a fascist government, and a vigilante known only as V (Hugo Weaving) uses terrorist tactics to fight the oppressors of the world in which he now lives. When V saves a young woman named Evey (Portman) from the secret police, he discovers an ally in his fight against England's oppressors.
One of the key themes of the film and the comic series by Alan Moore and David Lloyd upon which the film is based is that, while V serves as the "face" of revolution, he helps show the citizens of London that anyone could be doing what he is doing and was merely a catalyst for underlying anger. In that regard, a follow-up film could potentially see Evey having fully embraced a role similar to V in the first film, or possibly explore a world in which the power differential has begun to shift in compelling new ways.
The Oscar-winning actress regularly wins acclaim for her performances in dramatic roles, though many audiences might forget about her involvement in this comic book adaptation or her appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In both Thor and Thor: The Dark World, Portman played Jane Foster. In 2015's Avengers: Age of Ultron, her and Gwyneth Paltrow's character Pepper Potts' absences were addressed by Tony Stark and Thor, as the two competed by bragging about their love interests' accomplishments. Paltrow has returned to the MCU in recent years, though there's no official word on whether Portman could return.
