'Edge of Tomorrow' Sequel in the Works With Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt
Another "Tomorrow" is on the horizon.
Warner Bros. is developing a sequel to "Edge of Tomorrow," the 2014 sci-fi hit starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt.
Cruise and Blunt are expected to return, as is director Doug Liman. Their participation is dependent on the outcome of a script to be written by Matthew Robinson ("The Invention of Lying").
The first movie centered on a military public relations officer (Cruise) who gets stuck in a time loop during an alien invasion. Every time he dies, he starts the day over. He enlists the help of a war hero (Blunt) who trains him until he's able to win against the aliens.
"Edge of Tomorrow" grossed over $370 million worldwide, but wasn't considered a huge hit at the box office. It did receive rave reviews and eventually found a following on home video, when it was rebranded "Live. Die. Repeat."
