Tatum and Kunis Take to the Stars in “Jupiter Ascending”

Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis star in this Sci-Fi coming of age epic from Warner Bros. which blasts into theaters February 6th.

The trailer reminds me of The Fifth Element, with its unique and exotic otherworldly feel. Far from “Magic Mike” and “romantic comedies”, Tatum and Kunis will be stepping “light years” outside the box of their normal comfort zones in this Wachowski film.

“Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis star in “Jupiter Ascending,” an original science fiction action adventure from filmmakers Lana and Andy Wachowski.

Jupiter Jones (Kunis) was born under a night sky, with signs predicting that she was destined for great things. Now grown, Jupiter dreams of the stars but wakes up to the cold reality of a job cleaning other people’s houses and an endless run of bad breaks. Only when Caine (Tatum), a genetically engineered ex-military hunter, arrives on Earth to track her down does Jupiter begin to glimpse the fate that has been waiting for her all along—her genetic signature marks her as next in line for an extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the cosmos.”

Also starring Sean Bean (“The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy), Eddie Redmayne (“The Theory of Everything”), Douglas Booth (“Noah”), Tuppence Middleton (“The Imitation Game”), Doona Bae (“Cloud Atlas”), James D’Arcy (“Hitchcock”) and Tim Pigott-Smith (“Alice in Wonderland”).
