Official Synopsis For The Wachowskis’ ‘Jupiter Ascending’ Revealed

Production is underway on The Wachowskis’ next sci-fi film Jupiter Ascending, and the official synopsis for the film starring Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis has been revealed.

From the streets of Chicago to far flung galaxies whirling through space, Jupiter Ascending was conceived and written by the Wachowskis, who are also directing. Award-winning producer Grant Hill, with whom the writer/directors have collaborated since “The Matrix” Trilogy, is producing the film together with the Wachowskis. Roberto Malerba and Bruce Berman are serving as executive producers.

Jupiter Jones (Mila 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 toilets and an endless run of bad breaks. Only when Caine (Channing 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.

So, it sounds like the film is almost like a sci-fi Cinderella story. It’s a pretty interesting concept and we’ll have to see how it plays out when the film hits theaters  July 25, 2014.
