The Wachowski Brothers are famous for revolutionising the world of cinema with the The Matrix movie, but they also brought us two the disappointing sequels, plus box office flops like the technicolour travesty, Speed Racer, and the under appreciated Cloud Atlas.
Let's hope this new outer space epic starring Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis can return the filmmaking duo to winning form (especially as there's also the added pressure of the new highly-anticpated Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie on the horizon).
In this galactic space opera spectacular, Mila Kunis plays 'Jupiter Jones', a down-on-her-luck cleaning lady who discovers she has a greater destiny when Channing Tatum's genetically-engineered hunter 'Caine' arrives on Earth to find her. He isn't alone, and she soon discovers her unique genetic signature makes her heir to one of the most powerful alien dynasties in the cosmos. Imagine that.
With galaxy-spanning empires, genetics and alien bounty hunters, Jupiter Ascending sounds like it has all the essential ingredients to be a great science-fiction action movie, but as it was originally planned for a summer release, you have to wonder if it was postponed for a reason whilst they fixed any problems with the film.
These interplanetary billboards for the movie were spied around L.A. from January 9 to January 17, 2015, from The Grove shopping centre to Sunset Boulevard, Fairfax Avenue, Cahuenga Boulevard and Beverly Boulevard.
If you're a fan of the handsome Channing Tatum, be sure to also check out these White House Down movie billboards and 22 Jump Street movie billboards.
Plus if you're admirer of the beautiful Mila Kunis, enjoy these Friends with Benefits film billboards and these Oz the Great and Powerful movie billboards.
Who knows, maybe this film will enjoy the Guardians of the Galaxy effect whereby all things cosmic are cool again, and it will enjoy stellar reviews and an out-of-this-world box office.
Only time will tell if Jupiter will ascend, or whether it will crash and burn.

UPDATED: Here's another billboard for the sci-fi spectacular spied along Pico Boulevard on February 1, 2015.
