Tom Cruise Returns to Reboot of Edge of Tomorrow, Anticipating Upcoming Sequel
Ten Years Down the Line: Still Waiting for That Edge of Tomorrow Sequel
This year, we're celebrating the 10th anniversary of the acclaimed sci-fi action flick, Edge of Tomorrow, starring the charismatic Tom Cruise alongside Emily Blunt and directed by the masterful Doug Liman. Although it didn't sweep the world off its feet on its initial release, its fascinating plot and standout performances have garnered a loyal fanbase, with the movie continually popping up in discussions about a potential sequel.
Recently, Liman gave us a glimmer of hope, hinting at a revival of the project. During a chat with Empire, Liman shared that he and Cruise had revisited the film just a couple of months ago. "Tom and I rewatched it about two months ago, because I hadn't seen it in 10 years," said Liman. "I was like, 'Wow, that is a really good movie.'" A rewatch may not guarantee a sequel, but it certainly sets the stage for one. Liman further divulged that they "keep talking about it," expressing their continued affection for the intriguing universe the film created.
Endless speculation surrounding an Edge of Tomorrow sequel started swirling just a year after the first movie hit theaters, and to this day, there's been some kind of update almost every year since. In fact, a reported title for the sequel, Live Die Repeat and Repeat, surfaced at one point. However, despite these tantalizing hints, nothing concrete has occurred since.
The most promising indication yet came earlier this year when Cruise signed a deal with Warner Bros. for future film projects. This significant move followed Cruise's string of movies with Paramount, and the one studio project he previously did with Warner Bros. was, you guessed it, Edge of Tomorrow. With this in mind, the question isn't if, but when.
