As evidenced by her outing, the brunette babe got in great shape for her upcoming action movie.
"I worked with a trainer, Naomi Pendergast, for, I think it was, four months before shooting, and then obviously all the way through filming. We did a lot of weight training and a lot of protein shakes — heavyweight training that I haven’t ever done before," she shared. "Of course, I’ve never really aimed to get bulky. It was very physical, so it was a lot of both agility work and also strength work."

Portman has explained that transforming your body for a role isn't just about the physical aspect.
"It definitely helps you get into character, and it’s definitely changed the way I move," insisted the Black Swan lead. "You walk differently; you feel different. I mean, it’s so wild to feel strong for the first time in my life."
