It has long been claimed that Nowak was wearing an adult diaper for her frenzied ride, but her lawyers denied it and the diaper was ultimately left out of the film. However, according to Portman, people are really mad about that.
Natalie Portman is speaking out about the diaper drama related to her new astronaut film, Lucy in the Sky.
“The original story was that this woman drove across country to kind of confront or kidnap — depending on the version — her boyfriend and his new girlfriend,” Portman said on Friday’s Ellen DeGeneres Show. “And she wore a diaper so that she didn’t have to stop on the way.” There have been no shortage of stories about the lack of diaper ahead of the film’s Oct. 4 release. For instance, “I’m Boycotting Natalie Portman’s Diaperless Astronaut Diaper Movie” from Slate, and Vanity Fair’s “Natalie Portman’s Movie About the Diaper-Wearing Astronaut Has No Diapers.”
Hawley went on to say that he felt Nowak has already paid her price, losing her job after NASA fired her from the program.
