Jupiter
Jupiter Ascending is an upcoming space opera film written, produced, and
directed by The Wachowskis. It marks their first return to original screenplays
in the science fiction genre since The Matrix trilogy.
The film is centered on Jupiter Jones (Mila
Kunis), a down-on-her-luck janitor, and Caine Wise (Channing Tatum), an
interplanetary warrior who informs Jones that her destiny extends beyond Earth.
Supporting cast member Douglas Booth has described the film's universe as a
cross between The Matrix and Star Wars while Kunis named its underlying themes
as indulgence and consumption.
The film is co-produced by Grant Hill, who
acted as executive producer on The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions
and as producer on V for Vendetta, Speed Racer, Ninja Assassin and Cloud Atlas,
making Jupiter Ascending his seventh collaboration with the Wachowskis. Several
more longstanding Wachowski collaborators since the creation of The Matrix
films have contributed to the picture, including production designer Hugh
Bateup, visual effects supervisor Dan Glass, visual effects designer John
Gaeta, supervising sound editor Dane Davis and costume designer Kym Barrett.
Other notable past collaborators include Speed Racer's composer Michael
Giacchino, Cloud Atlas' director of photography John Toll along with its editor
Alexander Berner and hair and make-up designer Jeremy Woodhead, who worked on
both.
Plot[edit]
Unknown to Earth's residents, life on Earth
and countless other planets has been seeded[13] by families of alien royalty
for the purpose of harvesting the evolved living creatures once they reach a
"Darwinian state of perfection" to produce a type of youth serum that
allows them to live forever.When the matriarch of the House of Abrasax, the
most powerful of the alien dynasties, dies
her children Balem (Eddie Redmayne), Kalique (Tuppence Middleton), and
Titus (Douglas Booth) are at war over the inheritance. Eventually a new heir
comes to their attention: Jupiter Jones (Mila Kunis), an unsuspecting,
Earth-living, unlucky caretaker of other people's homes. Jupiter encounters
Caine Wise (Channing Tatum), a genetically engineered interplanetary warrior,
who came to Earth to reveal that her genetic signature makes Jones royalty and
heir to Earth. Meanwhile, he has to protect her from Balem, who put a bounty on
her head and would rather harvest Earth than lose it to Jones.
Cast[edit]
Channing Tatum as Caine Wise, a genetically
engineered ex-military hunter. Caine is a defective genetic splice, half-albino
and with both wolf and human DNA. He has a tremendously powerful sense of smell
that allows him to track a gene through the Universe. Tatum had to wear a
mouthpiece to change the shape of his lower jaw, which prevented him from
closing his mouth and gave him trouble when he had to talk. Before casting
Tatum, the directors queried him not only about whether he was up to the
challenge physically but also about his personal belief and life experience
with what love is.
Mila Kunis as Jupiter Jones, an unsuspecting,
unlucky, Earth-born janitor whose genetic structure marks her as royalty and
the heir to Earth. Kunis describes her character as unhappy with her job and
life, but also lazy and with no aspirations to do anything about it, until
Caine finds her.
Eddie Redmayne as Balem Abrasax, alien royalty
whose family engages in the planetary business, trading in youth serum. He is
the elder of the three Abrasax siblings and serves as the main antagonist of
the film because he wants Earth for himself.
Douglas Booth as Titus Abrasax, Balem's
brother. Booth describes his character as "a bit of a playboy"
mentioning his spaceship, as described in the script, is a cross between a
Gothic cathedral and the Playboy Mansion
Sean Bean as Stinger Apini, a "Han
Solo-type character".Stinger is spliced with bee DNA, which gives him some
of their characteristics: wings, speed, special vision and a sense of loyalty.
Stinger was in the military with Caine but when Caine got into trouble and
Stinger stood up for him, his wings were removed and he was exiled to Earth. He
lives a normal life on Earth along with his daughter, who he describes as the
only good thing he's done in life, until she falls ill and in need of a special
nectar.
Tuppence Middleton as Kalique Abrasax, Balem's
sister. She approaches Jupiter and befriends her, but like her brothers she has
ulterior motives.
David Ajala as Ibis, the leader of the cyber
hunters pursuing Jupiter and Caine.
Charlotte Beaumont in a small part as
Stinger's daughter.
Terry Gilliam in "a small but vital
part"in a scene that is an homage to Gilliam's Brazil.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Famulus, a half-human,
half-deer genetic splice.
Oleg Nasobin as Zeno
Vanessa Kirby as Katharine
Edward Hogg as Chicanery Night
Production[edit]
Development[edit]
In 2009, Warner Bros' president Jeff Robinov
approached The Wachowskis about creating an original intellectual property and
franchise. Development began two years later, with the production and visual
effects teams doing pre-production work based on a first draft of the script,
while The Wachowskis were shooting the future segments of Cloud Atlas.
Production design[edit]
Producer Grant Hill and visual effects
supervisor Dan Glass note The Wachowskis never repeat themselves. Hill
describes the design as an original take on the look of space environments
while Glass mentions it was influenced by cities around Europe rather than
science fiction touchstones. Examples include Renaissance architecture, modern
glass and Gothic art.
Filming[edit]
The film is a co-production between the United
States' Warner Bros. Pictures and Australia's Village Roadshow Pictures.
Roberto Malerba and Bruce Berman serve as executive producers.Principal
photography commenced at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden on April 2, 2013.
Filming also took place at Ely Cathedral in England. The production remained in
the London studio through June, then moved to various locations in Chicago,
Illinois throughout late July and August. Minor reshoots to clarify plot points
took place in January and early May of the next year, the latter of which took
place in Bilbao, Spain.This is cinematographer John Toll's second feature film
he is shooting digitally, using Arri Alexas and Codex Recorders, after Iron Man
3,in part due to the visual effects element. Legend 3D is handling the
stereoscopic conversion of the film, having recently integrated the Mistika
post-production software into their pipeline. Vision3's Chris Parks is the
stereoscopic supervisor of the film.
An eight-minute long chase sequence, code
named "Fifty-Two Part" by the film's crew, depicts Jupiter and Caine fleeing
from aliens and spaceships in downtown Chicago shortly after they first meet.
It was the longest sequence in the script, involving some of the film's most
difficult stunts. To complete it, Kunis and Tatum had to film every day for six
months.
Effects[edit]
Several of the film's effects rely heavily on
practical stunts instead of CGI. Tatum has noted there was minimal use of
digital doubles and instead most stunts were done by the principal actors or
stuntmen attempting to match the pre-vis sequences. For the scenes of Tatum's
character flying using antigravity boots, Glass reveals his team invented a way
to use stuntmen instead of doing them digitally, despite the limited available
time to shoot them.They created a rig of six cameras, called the Panocam, which
was mounted on a helicopter and covered nearly 180 degrees of the action.
During post-production, the directors could combine the overlapped filmed
footage, essentially creating a camera that could swing around the action
independently of the helicopter's actual flying path. The invention piqued the
interest of other directors who have subsequently used it in their own movies.
Visual effects vendor Framestore used Vicon
T40 cameras for pre-vis and motion capture purposes, the same camera system they
used in the visually acclaimed Gravity.
Music[edit]
The film's music will be composed by Michael
Giacchino, who also scored the Wachowskis’ 2008 film Speed Racer.On June 10,
2013, Giacchino tweeted that Ludwig Wicki was conducting the film’s score at Abbey
Road Studios in London.[46] In August, Giacchino stated: “We’re actually
recording all the music first, before they’re even done shooting. It’s been
done sort of backwards, and it’s much more freeing doing it that way. I’m not
locked down to any specific timings and what the film is doing. I can do
whatever I want. It opens up a lot more possibilities.”The Wachowskis first
used this approach during production of Cloud Atlas at the recommendation of
co-director Tom Tykwer who has made all his movies this way, and have since
commented they will never make a movie without recording the music first.
Release[edit]
The film was initially to be released on July
25, 2014, but it was later shifted to July 18, 2014. On June 3, 2014, the
film's release was delayed to February 6, 2015 due to additional time needed to
complete over 2,000 special effects shots of the film and prepare an effective
marketing campaign.The film is scheduled to also be released in IMAX 3D along
with its competitor Seventh Son from Universal Pictures.
