“The Fountain” at heart, is in fact, a love story of epic proportions, which happens to be set within a science fiction framework.

The story sounds like a heartbreaking, yet inspiring tearjerker, charting the tireless, adventure filled, and sometimes danger ridden quest of Hugh Jackman’s character, as he travels through the course of a thousand years, to find a way to save his one true love, before she dies from an incurable illness.

Oh MY!!!! WE are IN LOVE already, with this emotionally resonant and fraught storyline. And who better to play the lead character, than our equal parts strong and sensitive, man of conscience, perseverance, courage, and hope than Hugh Jackman!!

The story takes Jackman down a path where he takes on the ongoing, evolving persona of several forms of the same character, through time and space.

As Tomas Creo, a 16th century Spanish Conquistador, his journey leads him to seek and find the Tree of Life, so that his terminally ill wife may drink of its magical sap, with its eternal life giving benefits.

Flashing forward to today’s current century , Jackman is Tommy Creo, a scientist, furiously fighting to win a race against time, to save his wife, Isabel from the ravages of a malignant, life threatening, cancer.

Tom then travels through the very far reaches of time itself, to the 26th century as an astronaut, in his ultimate quest for the meaning of life, death, love, loss, redemption, and….answers.

If traveling through and braving the wages of time and historic events, and enduring the emotional, soul searching questions, pain, and lord only knows what else, to spare the life of the woman he loves, his one and only beloved, even if it means challenging the Grim Reaper and altering destiny itself, doesn’t sound like a SUPER HERO in the making for our immensely gifted, Hugh Jackman, we don’t know what is!

We are also VERY much looking forward to Hugh Jackman (who in case you haven’t guessed we positively ADORE! and to us, is our FAVORITE leading actor of the last half decade!),….

……having a major, well written, character driven opportunity to stretch his acting wings in a more, shall we say, cerebral role, as a romantic leading man in a classic love story.

Yes, the science fiction elements are inherent, but in “The Fountain”, they serve as more of a backdrop to elevate the scope and magnitude of the eternal love story that takes center stage.

(Though we want to point out that Dr Jean Grey, Rogue, and WE, find Jackman’s iconic portrayal of Logan’s/Wolverine’s heroic charms and outstandingly written, intelligent, character development irresistible in the “X-Men” films too!)

Here’s a link to the DC Comics’ graphic novel itself, with some of its SUPER COOL artwork so you can bone up a bit on the original story and artwork that spawned the upcoming film!

Fall 2006, may sound like a bit long to wait for the release of “The Fountain”, but from what we’ve seen and heard about this glorious showcase for Hugh Jackman to tug at and embrace our hearts and minds, we KNOW it will be more than worth the wait!
