More Photos of the Stars, Extras of 'Jupiter Ascending'

Filming in Joliet and Minooka wraps up this week on the Channing Tatum-Mila Kunis science fiction flick.

If you're not too sick of the subject yet, we have more reader photos from the shooting of "Jupiter Ascending," the Channing Tatum-Mila Kunis movie that's taken over Aux Sable Middle School in Joliet and an old farmhouse in Minooka.

Filming on the science fiction film is to end mid-week, when the cast and crew will return to Chicago to complete filming by month's end.

Fans camped out at the school or near the farmhouse have been thrilled by how often they've been able to see the stars going to and from the set. Kunis has stopped at least twice to greet fans personally.

Reitz said the crew was filming scenes around 5 p.m. Sunday, although Tatum and Kunis were not part of the action.

Another star of the movie, however, was spotted near Plainfield Sunday. Sue Zarbock shared a photo of "Game of Thrones" and "Lord of the Rings" actor Sean Bean greeting fans on Plainfield Patch's Facebook page.

Also, check out the photos shared by Joliet Patch reader Raquel Noriega, who caught some nice shots of Kunis and Tatum.

If you're curious about the outfits being worn by the actors on Sunday, all we can tell you is what IMDb.com has to say about the movie's plot: "In a world 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."
