Eddie Redmayne In Talks To Join Cast Of The Wachowskis’ ‘Jupiter Ascending’

It has been revealed that actor Eddie Redmayne (Les Miserables) is in talks to join the cast of the Wachowski’s upcoming sci-fi film, Jupiter Ascending. While the actor has not signed on for the film yet, if he does sign on you can take his name off the list of actors up for the role of Star-Lord in Marvel Studios Guardians Of The Galaxy. Production on both films will take place around the same time making it impossible for Redmayne to do both.

If Redmayne does indeed sign on for Jupiter Ascending, he will join Mila Kunis (Ted) and Channing Tatum (G.I. Joe Retaliation) in the film which takes place “In a universe where humans are near the bottom of the evolutionary ladder, a young destitute human woman is targeted for assassination by the Queen of the Universe because her very existence threatens to end the Queen’s reign”.
