Actress Natalie Portman insists it is really important for women in Hollywood to cultivate friendships between themselves.

The 35-year-old "Black Swan" star says it is crucial that women stick together in the industry, particularly when they're cast in a movie together as it is something that doesn't happen a lot, reported Contactmusic.

"It's so important, and we're prevented from it a lot because we don't get to work with each other a lot. I've actually been noticing it a lot even in kids' films recently, how you see even like a cartoon and there's like a girl in it, and we're used to that.
 

"It's a film of all men and then there's a woman. And acting for 20 years, I'm used to that - that I'm the woman on set. When we do get the opportunity to work with other women, we always end up just like running toward each other and embracing because it's such great energy to have," Portman said.
