"It definitely did come into play how strong and smart a character Carrie Fisher portrayed, because I think that a lot of that is passed on from parent to child. I think George wrote Amidala as a strong, smart character, but it helped to know that I had this great woman before me who had portrayed her character as a fiery woman."
―Natalie Portman
While pursuing her bachelor's degree in psychology at Harvard, Portman appeared in the Star Wars prequel trilogy of movies, which were filmed during her summer break from university. In her interview in the Inside the Actors Studio show, Portman stated that when her agent first told her about the new Star Wars trilogy she didn't know the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek.
Many people think she and Keira Knightley look very much alike, which was the main reason that Keira got the role of Sabé, Queen Amidala's handmaiden and decoy. They looked so much like each other that during the making of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, not even their mothers could tell them apart when they both had make-up on.
During the filming of Star Wars: Episode III The Revenge of the Sith she said the character of Padmé "embodies the true meaning of feminism" since "It's about having access to all the same things but then making decisions from your particular point of view" and despite the fact Padmé was a leader to her people she choose to be compassionate and to serve democracy instead of being consumed by the thirst for power.
In a 2007 interview, she said that although she was pleased with the Star Wars work she had done, she didn't plan to work with the Star Wars universe again. In 2023, however, she expressed openness to returning.

Queen Amidala : I will sign no treaty, Senator. My fate will be no different to that of our people.

If we do not act quickly, all will be lost forever.
