Andy and Lana Wachowski (creators/directors of the Matrix series, and the recent Cloud Atlas) are returning with a sci-fi epic, Jupiter Ascending, and the first trailer has just been released. According to Dark Horizons, the movie stars Channing Tatum, Mila Kunis, Sean Bean, Eddie Redmayne, Douglas Booth and James D’Arcy “in the story of a woman (Kunis) stuck in the job of a janitor who is saved by a genetically engineered ex-military hunter (Tatum) because her her genetic signature marks her as next in line to become one of the galaxy’s most powerful figures”.
If you feel a bit of an astrology vibe to the title, the Wikipedia entry on the film might connect some dots: Kunis’ character is named Jupiter, and she is told that “the stars were pointing to an extraordinary event on the night she was born, and that her DNA could mark her as the universe’s next leader”…
