Yahoo! is reporting that Cloud Atlas actress Bae Doo Na has been cast in a ‘small role’ for the Wachowskis’ Jupiter Ascending. She briefly spoke about her role and the film itself.
“My role in the movie is a very small one,” said the actress. “Compared to Cloud Atlas, I think this new movie will [be] a lot easier and just an enjoyable [sci-fi] movie.”
Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis lead the international cast that also includes Sean Bean , Eddie Redmayne, Douglas Booth, Tuppence Middleton, Doona Bae, James D’Arcy, and Tim Pigott-Smith.
In the film, 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 toilets 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 – her genetic signature marks her as next in line for an extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the cosmos.
Jupiter Ascending is currently in production and will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures.
