| ‘Jupiter Ascending’ Trailer: Channing Tatum Protects Mila Kunis From Intergalactic Assassins
Warner Bros has released the first trailer for the Jupiter Ascending starring Channing Tatum, Mila Kunis, Sean Bean, and Eddie Redmayne. The film can be seen as a Cinderella in space kind of story, with Kunis playing the princess who’s working dead-end jobs on planet Earth being saved by Caine (Tatum), who tells her that her genetic markings puts her next in line for the galactic throne. Hit the jump to see the full trailer. I’m not going to lie to you: For something that goes from planet Earth to Jupiter, the Wachowski’s Jupiter Ascending‘s scope seems surprisingly small. But the detail that went into the visuals, now that is something that will definitely take your breath away. Something that really shouldn’t come as a surprise considering the directing team brought us films like The Matrix Trilogy, Speed Racer, and Cloud Atlas.

| ‘Les Miserables’ Star Eddie Redmayne Joins Channing Tatum, Mila Kunis In ‘Jupiter Ascending’
Eddie Redmayne, one of the many stars of the fast-approaching new film version of Les Miserables, is in talks to join the cast of Jupiter Ascending, the next movie from The Matrix trilogy and Cloud Atlas writers and directors, Andy Wachowski and Lana Wachowski. Redmayne would join Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis, who are both already on board the project. Details about the movie are very few at the moment. Tatum is playing a man named Django Wise, while Kunis is playing a Russian immigrant named Jupiter. It’s unclear who Redmayne would be playing.

| 7 Promotional Banners & 2 TV Spots For ‘Cloud Atlas’
A slew of new promotional material for Cloud Atlas is hitting the marketing wire, and it does a great job of showing the ambitious scope of The Wachowskis‘ latest film. The project is difficult to describe largely because it features a large cast playing as multiple characters cross various time periods. In the film these actors play a variety of roles, some which requires the actor to play something outside of their own race, age, and even sexuality. Now seven promotional banners put these roles and time periods up on display. Check out the seven new banners, plus two tv spots here below. There has been positive buzz circling around Cloud Atlas since it made its official debut at the Toronto International Film Festival. Critics have praised The Wachowskis (Andy and Lana) and Tom Twyker for creating a movie that is not limited to one genre. Others have praised the make-up used to change the actors’ appearances.

| ‘Cloud Atlas’ Trailer: The Wachowskis’ Ambition Condensed Into 2 Minutes
After watching the first trailer for Cloud Atlas for the first time, it was clear that this was going to be a very ambitious movie. In that trailer we saw actors playing multiple roles in six intersecting stories that span many generations from the Victorian era to a technologically sophisticated futuristic Korea. Now, a much shorter more theatrically fitting trailer has appeared online. Check it out here below. There is some new footage that has been included in this video, although it doesn’t really hamper or spoil the movie since they are just quick glimpses. I actually think that the Wachowskis and Tom Tykwer are playing this one close to the vest and the first trailer they released is the real meat of the promotions, the rest they are holding off on until they release Cloud Atlas.
