Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of Andy and Lana Wachowski's
Jupiter Ascending. The action-packed sci-fi spectacle stars Mila Kunis, Channing Tatum, Sean Bean, Vanessa Kirby, Jo Osmond and Christina Cole, and arrives via
2D and
3D Blu-ray/DVD/Digital HD combo packs on June 2nd.
Note: Amazon incorrectly shows the release date as June 10th, while an outdated Warner press sheet making the rounds lists the date as May 12th.
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 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, as 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.
