Although Natalie and Mila are friends in real life, in Black Swan they had to be bitter rivals. Nat explained that in order to supersede that friendship, their director didn't let them spend time together off set.
"It was strange because Darren definitely kept us separate during the filming because he wanted us to develop this rivalry," Natalie explained to reporters. "Which, of course, we weren't going to develop, because he kept us in different rooms but it was strange because we weren't hanging out like we normally do."
