Natalie Portman’s latest work will be out next month. ‘Goya’s Ghosts’ is a historical epic set in times of the Spanish Inquisition. The film has a noteworthy cast of Portman, Stellan Skarsgard , Javier Bardem, Randy Quaid, Michael Lonsdale, Jose Luis Gomez and Mabel Rivera. The film is directed by Milos Forman who is best known for his work on ‘Amadeus’.

The films plot revolves around a painter Francisco Goya (Skarsgard) and his muse Ines (Portman). Things go amiss when Ines is arrested for heresy and tortured. Goya tries his best to aid Ines but finds many obstacles along the way.

Interestingly, the film was released as dubbed version in Spain in 2006. The film debuts stateside on July 20th. It should be interesting to see why the film has been in limbo for so long.
