Talk about an ensemble cast. Columbia Pictures is serving up Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman for the male viewers and then some extra yum-yum with Eric Bana for the female audience. What film contains such a (mind the pun) threesome?

A sumptuous and sensual tale of intrigue, romance and betrayal set against the backdrop of a defining moment in European history, The Other Boleyn Girl tells the story of two beautiful sisters, Anne (Natalie Portman) and Mary (Scarlett Johansson) Boleyn who, driven by their family's blind ambition, compete for the love of the handsome and passionate King Henry VIII (Eric Bana). While both women eventually share the king's bed, only one will ascend to the throne for a brief and turbulent reign that ends tragically with a swing of the executioner's sword.
Wait a sec? Doesn't this sound like the exact same synopsis of Showtime's The Tudors?
