I see no evidence of Portman's career being almost ruined by her association with Star Wars:

That's one of the biggest failed Chekhov's Gun parts of the original series to me. When Obi-Wan says "that boy is our last hope" and Yoda says "No, there is another" referring to Leia - and then nothing ever happens with Leia! She's never acknowledged as having the force, or any powers beyond being able to insult Han, so WTF was the point of that line other than to set up the Luke and Leia incest-fest? I hope in the coming movies they at least address Leia's supposed powers with the force.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
