Natalie happy to take on the Twits in a film her children can enjoy

Hollywood actress Natalie Portman has said she was so excited to be a part of animated Netflix film The Twits, as it is a movie her children can enjoy.

The Oscar-winning star, 44, who has a son named Aleph and a daughter named Amalia with her ex-husband Benjamin Millepied, voices Mary Muggle-Wump, a magical creature from Loompaland.

"I was so excited to be part of a film my kids could enjoy. "I am a big fan of (director) Phil (Johnston) and so was excited to work with him. And of course, to work on a classic Roald Dahl piece that had never been adapted."
