‘Star Wars’ and ‘Thor’ Star Caught Doing Good Deeds at Disney Park

While it’s commonplace for Hollywood’s biggest stars to head the Disney to promote films like Haunted Mansion’s Jamie Lee Curtis and The Little Mermaid’s Halle Bailey, some celebrities are—just like us!

Although VIP treatment is on the table for star-powered Disney Guests, many celebrities aim to give their families the quintessential Disney experience at the Parks. We can’t blame them, right? Disney is a playground for kids of all ages from every background. The most recent star sighting, however, wasn’t the product of a vacation with family—it was a wholesome moment capturing a mega Marvel star and Star Wars royalty performing a good deed.

Set Up for Success

Natalie Portman, a Harvard graduate, and actress behind Queen Amidala/Padmé Naberrie, was spotted blending into the crowd during a Disney day at Disneyland Paris. While the mother of two wasn’t seen whisking her kiddos, son Aleph, 12, and daughter Amalia, 6, through the Parks for a family vacation, she was chaperoning a different group of young ones.

Lover of music and proponent of education, Portman has been involved with cultivating the next generation’s development—specifically for a school in Paris, France. L’Ecole Koenig, an American music conservatory and a bilingual American preschool & kindergarten, hosted a field trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth featuring Portman.

A bilingual school, L’Ecole Koenig aims to cultivate inclusion and empathy around children’s path to learning. With a unifying mission founded on music, the school opens the doors for the future generation of kiddos to pursue their artistic dreams. Portman was all smiles, unassumingly in the crowd, donning a L’Ecole Koenig vest to match the little ones.

No One Asked, but She’s Open to a ‘Star Wars’ Return

With a recreational Disneyland Paris visit under her belt, some fans wonder if Portman will resurface in the Star Wars scene. Her likeness as Queen Amidala has appeared at the Disneyland Resort and during Star Wars-themed events at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. However, curiosity has built around Portman’s return to the franchise on screen.

Starring in Star Wars: Episode I, The Phantom Menace, Star Wars: Episode II, Attack of the Clones, and Star Wars: Episode III, Revenge of the Sith, Portman’s character died while giving birth to Luke and Leia, but Darth Maul proves a resurrection isn’t out of the question.

When asked by GQ magazine recently if Portman would consider a Star Wars revisitation, she said:

No one’s ever asked me to return, but I’m open to it.

While fans will have to wait and see if Portman makes a Disney comeback soon, it was a welcome surprise to see her supporting a youth group at the Mouse House in the meantime.
