As we previously reported, there are still no plot details about the upcoming
Jupiter Ascending project. The only thing we know is that it is an original creation by
Andy and
Lana Wachowski.
And that was enough for us. For a moment.
Now, we're even more excited about this movie because the above mentioned duo wants
Natalie Portman to star in the whole thing!
According to the latest reports, Portman is being “courted” to star in the film and is “seriously weighing” the part as one of her first big roles after her pregnancy (just for a record, she was five months pregnant when she received the Best Actress Oscar for her role in
Black Swan).
Now, it looks that Portman is back for good – she is currently believed to be working on a documentary based on
Jonathan Safran Foer's book
Eating Animals, but she is also reportedly attached to
Thor 2.
As for Jupiter Ascending production is expected to start after the
Wachowskis finish work on their latest project
Cloud Atlas.
So, make sure you stay tuned for more details!
