Luc Besson (French pronunciation: [lyk bɛsɔ̃]; born 18 March 1959) is a French film director, screenwriter, and producer. He is known for directing and producing thrillers and action films that are visually rich. Critics cite Besson as a pivotal figure in the Cinéma du look movement, a specific, highly visual style produced from the 1980s into the early 1990s. Subway (1985), The Big Blue (1988) and Nikita (1990) are all considered to be of this stylistic school. Besson had been nominated for Best Director and Best Picture César Awards for his films Léon: The Professional and The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc. He won Best Director and Best French Director for his sci-fi action film The Fifth Element (1997). His sci-fi thriller film Lucy (2014) is France's biggest export success.
In 1980, he founded his own production company, called Les Films du Loup, and later Les Films du Dauphin. This was superseded in 2000 by his co-founding EuropaCorp film company with his longtime collaborator, Pierre-Ange Le Pogam. Besson has been involved with filmmaking for more than 50 films, spanning 26 years, as writer, director, and/or producer. He is also being declared the John Hughes of action films because his screen writing skills are more famous than his directing.
Natalie Portman (born Neta-Lee Hershlag; Hebrew: נטע-לי הרשלג; June 9, 1981) is an actress, film producer and film director with dual American and Israeli citizenship. Her first role was in the 1994 action thriller Léon: The Professional, opposite Jean Reno, but mainstream success came when she was cast as Padmé Amidala in the Star Wars prequel trilogy (released in 1999, 2002 and 2005).
Born in Jerusalem to an Israeli father and American mother, Portman grew up in the eastern United States from the age of three. She studied dancing and acting in New York, and starred in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace while still at high school on Long Island. In 1999, Portman enrolled at Harvard University to study psychology, alongside her work as an actress; she completed a bachelor's degree in 2003. During her studies she starred in a second Star Wars film and opened in New York City's Public Theater production of Anton Chekhov's The Seagull in 2001.
Portman starred in the 2004 drama Closer, appeared in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith the following year, and won a Constellation Award for Best Female Performance and a Saturn Award for Best Actress for her starring role in the political thriller V for Vendetta (2006). She played leading roles in the historical dramas Goya's Ghosts (2006) and The Other Boleyn Girl (2008), and also appeared in Thor (2011) and its 2013 sequel. In 2010, Portman starred in the psychological horror film Black Swan. Her performance received widespread critical acclaim and she earned her first Academy Award for Best Actress, her second Golden Globe Award, the SAG Award, the BAFTA Award and the BFCA Award in 2011.
Léon: The Professional (French: Léon; also known as The Professional) is a 1994 English-language French crime thriller film written and directed by Luc Besson.

Little does he know that another burglar, far less skilled and refined, has coincidentally decided on breaking into the very same house. They weave in and out of each others paths, both becoming increasingly confused by the trail the other leaves behind.

[Planet Asia]
It's the professional [x3]
Easy now, easy now, easy now
The Architecht-Planet Asia collaboration
Yo I speak in ghetto star gallactics
Reach passes teach the masses
What they need to teach in classes
Bout these fascist self-maskin wealth bastards
I'm way beyond your sixty-thousand entries of speech
My rhymes million man march over beats
Architecht remarkable, we drop the hotness
Dirty hundred-thousand dollar locksmith
Open your conscience
I sneak preview for the evil infiltratin information
Restricted inside the sector
Even if you had a hieroglyphic booby-trap detector
You still couldn't detect
The threat, you best respect my cold to kill nigga debts
I build wit wise guys
Gods and earth, broads and flirts
Frauds, dirt hustlin street niggas that walk they dogs
If I act right, I could probably make black people unite
But some people think that I'm wrong and some people think that I'm right
Deluxe one, be back in seconds though
Show me some love for these acts
My man G-Love just hit me off wit a scratch, it's the professional
[Nas] "Rebel to America" [x7]
[Planet Asia]
First off, I stays flamed in my membrane
When I burst off axis, I shake the earth off
I rush my opponents, and clutch moments
My manufacturing's happening
I keeps it crackin-ing
You know the clock, stop askin-ing why
I got more styles than
One hundred ninety six million nine hundred and forty thousand
Miles of rhymes pile
Call me the time traveller wit the astro
Cuz I'm way past your average savage rapplin assholes
Accurate marks like this, I leave my targets destroyed
Accomplishments of a premeditated language entroy
Since my last jam jumped off, many been stimulated
But I've innovated,
you couldn't believe what I've received and generated
Much to touch, I lust to bust the unknown
Trust in my zone, symbolize without the dust in my dome
I'm super-nice, top notch
Beyond your ice watch
Material serial killers, connect the wet that ass for price drop
Now we movin on 'fore the millennium's changed
Strange times they face my journey but I must maintain
I bust veins on microphones because the soldier gotta train
Just like Ford I Mus-tang
I let my nuts hang, it's the professional
