Natalie Portman's nude debut

Hollywood cutie Natalie Portman is set to bare all in her new movie.

The stunning actress will be seen completely naked during torture scenes in the upcoming historical drama 'Goya's Ghosts', which focuses on revered artist Francisco Goya.

Portman plays Goya's muse, Alicia, who becomes embroiled in a scandal after she is accused of being a heretic by a monk. advertisement

It is not the first time Portman has stripped off for a movie role.

She previously exposed her body in the complex romantic drama 'Closer', which also starred Jude Law, Julia Roberts and Clive Owen, but the explicit scenes were eventually cut.

The 24-year-old actress, who appeared in the three 'Star Wars' prequels, has previously admitted she is uncomfortable being a sex symbol - because of her role in 'Leon'.

Portman shot to fame at age 12 playing a young Lolita-esque orphan who befriends a hardened assassin in the critically acclaimed 1994 movie.

Although the role won her universal acclaim, the actress admits she found it disturbing that some men lusted after her - even though she was a child.

"I had a bad experience when Leon first came out," she said. "In hindsight, I'm really proud of that film, though at the time it was unnerving to find myself suddenly being looked at." (Bangshowbiz)
