This is exciting! Recently it was announced that
Sean has signed on for Jupiter Ascending, the new major film project from
The Wachowski's (Matrix films, V For Vendetta, Speed Racer, Cloud
Atlas). I have to admit I was quite surprised! I've seen most of
their films, really liked The Matrix, but their style of writing &
filming isn't something that I thought would fit Sean, so I applaud
both him & them for expanding their universes!

Tuppence Middleton in Cleanskin |
Here's the current working description
of the film:
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.
Sean's character in Jupiter Ascending
is a man named Stinger, and he is described as being a Stars
Wars-esque "Han Solo" type, which I presume means something
like a smartass, charming, big hearted rouge who fights for right & protects the ones he
loves. Unfortunately, he is not the leading man.
I will definitely be keeping an eye on
this film's progression, stay tuned!
