Watch The Dazzling New Trailer For JUPITER ASCENDING!

Say what you will about film sibs Lana and Andy Wachowski, but they know how to visually wow the hell out of their audience, and the latest trailer for the long-awaited action adventure space opera, Jupiter Ascending is proof of that. The film, starring Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis almost had a release this summer before Warner Bros. pulled it back in June for the Wachowskis’ to do whatever it was they need to do to likely make the film more entertaining. I’m keen to believe this will work, as it also presents something original for once, with an epic story full of spectacle and action. Sure, romance here may seem awkward but…well, it is what it is. SYNOPSIS: 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 […]

As much as some film fans may complain that there are too many remakes on the big screen, the forthcoming release of the new film from Lana and Andy Wachowski, Jupiter Ascending, should be a refreshment. It’s original sci-fi, and despite some polarizing opinions about the aforementioned sibling film duo’s previous work, Cloud Atlas with co-helmer Tom Tykwer, it’s inarguable that Jupiter Ascending represents another clear example of pure creativity by artists who know how to dazzle the screen. Mila Kunis leads the cast with actor Channing Tatum, and actors Sean Bean, Eddie Redmayne and Douglas Booth also starring. Check out the new international trailer for the French debut of the film which opens on July 23, following the North America date set for July 18. SYNOPSIS: Jupiter Jones (Kunis) was born under a night sky, with signs predicting that she was destined for great things. Now grown, Jupiter dreams […]

Lee B. Golden III

The Wachowski sibs, Lana and Andy, re-energized their fanbase this month with headlines pertaining to a possible script handed in to Warner Bros. for a potential treatment of a new trilogy following their previous success launched with the 1999 film, The Matrix. Since this report, it may come as a coincidence that we now have a new fan film in the midst from independent filmmaker, writer, producer and VFX supervisor Felix Joleanes in the form of Trickster, featuring actress Brigitte Hernández in a solo performance as the sole survivor of a crashed ship, armed with only one weapon against the sentinels lurking about as she treks through the ruins of the real world. Shot last year in Bogotá, Colombia, the new shortfilm also appears to bare a few characteristics that tie into the second or third film of the original trilogy, and if you have seen those first three films, […]

We have a new international trailer this week for the upcoming release of Jupiter Ascending, the latest sci-fi fantasy action opera from brother/sister directing duo Andy and Lana Wachowski. The footage is basically everything that has already been seen in the initial teaser that was unveiled in the teaser late last year in December, just with Japanese subtitles. So we have a bit of time for more promo material before the film’s July 18 release date. The trailer also comes in light of rumors that the filmmaking brother/sister duo is scripting a new Matrix trilogy succeeding that of their earlier epic kung fu sci-fi films which starred Keanu Reeves, Carrie Anne Moss, Lawrence Fishburne and Hugo Weaving; This, of course, opens up a whole new can of worms with so many years having passed by with speculation that such a new trilogy has been in the works, and now with today’s […]
