It’s time to just break it down among us Geekscape hosts when Kenny, Ben and I talk about the onslaught of awesome TV that’s coming at us! ‘The Walking Dead’ returns for the second half of Season 5 and brings ‘Better Call Saul with it! ‘Arrow’ and ‘The Flash’ are still rocking on CW and is ’12 Monkeys’ and the second season of ‘Helix’ worth watching Syfy? In video games Ben gets scared out of his wits by ‘Dying Light’ but may not survive the real world Marvel Experience without falling asleep! And I braved the box office bomb that was ‘Jupiter Ascending’ to tell you that it IS worth your time!

Briefly: Following the film’s delay back in June, Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow Pictures today debuted the third trailer for next year’s anticipated Wachowski film, Jupiter Ascending.

This trailer (like the last ones) shows a return to sci-fi-action for the directors, whose previous venture Cloud Atlas failed to capture critics and viewers alike. I thought the film looked absolutely brilliant from its trailers and advertising, but felt that the full feature was an unmemorable, dull mess.

I certainly hope that the very sci-fi film can bring the spark of The Matrix back once again. Only time will tell of course, but for now, at least we have this damn cool trailer. This preview tells us much more about the plot of the film than we’ve seen thus far, and it looks damn flashy while doing it.

Take a look at Jupiter Ascending‘s third trailer below, and let us know if you’re excited! The film stars Mila Kunis, Channing Tatum, Sean Bean, Douglas Booth, and plenty of others, and hits theatres on February 6th.

Briefly: Wachowski fans, looks like you’ve got some time to wait for their next project, as Jupiter Ascending has been delayed until 2015.

The film was pushed from its original July 18th release date to February 6th of next year. The studio states that the film still requires extensive special effects work, and that “With the July release date, they were just not going to make it on time.”

The film stars Mila Kunis, Channing Tatum, Sean Bean, Douglas Booth, and plenty of others, so be sure to let us know if you’re looking forward to the flick, and what you think of the delay.

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.

 

From the streets of Chicago to far flung galaxies whirling through space, “Jupiter Ascending” is written and directed by the Wachowskis. Award-winning producer Grant Hill, with whom they have collaborated since “The Matrix” Trilogy, is producing, together with Lana Wachowski and Andy Wachowski. Roberto Malerba and Bruce Berman serve as executive producers.

Every time Ian Kerner guests on a new Geekscape episode, it’s like a major event… just like the release of ‘The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug’! Ian and I sit down, break down Peter Jackson’s second film in The Hobbit trilogy and how it just feels good to be back among old (and new friends) in Middle Earth! Spoilers abound, obviously, as we get right to the thick of it, just like journeying into the wilds of Mirkwood! Also, we get Ian’s take on Sony’s announcement of ‘Venom’ and ‘Sinister Six’ films and we also talk about the Wachowski’s ‘Jupiter Ascending’ and Tom Cruise in ‘Edge of Tomorrow’!

From the streets of Chicago to the far-flung galaxies whirling through space, “Jupiter Ascending” tells the story of Jupiter Jones (Mila Kunis), who was born under a night sky, with signs predicting 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 (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.

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.

It has been revealed that actor Eddie Redmayne (Les Miserables) is in talks to join the cast of the Wachowski’s upcoming sci-fi film, Jupiter Ascending. While the actor has not signed on for the film yet, if he does sign on you can take his name off the list of actors up for the role of Star-Lord in Marvel Studios Guardians Of The Galaxy. Production on both films will take place around the same time making it impossible for Redmayne to do both.

If Redmayne does indeed sign on for Jupiter Ascending, he will join Mila Kunis (Ted) and Channing Tatum (G.I. Joe Retaliation) in the film which takes place “In a universe where humans are near the bottom of the evolutionary ladder, a young destitute human woman is targeted for assassination by the Queen of the Universe because her very existence threatens to end the Queen’s reign”.
