There is no doubt that Tom Cruise has a long career in cinema, which has been bolstered by wonderful films, and one of the most special is On the edge of tomorrow. The actor was the protagonist of the film directed by Doug Liman and, Despite critical and public supportwe have not been able to enjoy a sequel.
Inspired by the novel All Yoy Need Is Kill From Hiroshi Sakurazaka, the project takes us to a not-too-distant future in which aliens are destroying humanity. The war between both species is constant, so an officer played by Cruise ends up trapped in a time loop that will lead him to improve his combat skills, learn from his mistakes and glimpse victory against the aliens.
10 years have passed since the premiere of the production and Liman has chatted with Empire on the possibility of a sequel, assuring that it is far from dead. “No, we are still talking about it. We love that world“, says the official, including Tom Cruise himself in the equation.
“I don’t know how long it took Cameron with his Terminators,but at that moment it seemed like an eternity,” says Liman, who has revealed that he has taken advantage of the tenth anniversary to sit down with the interpreter to enjoy a review of On the edge of tomorrow“Tom and I just watched it two months ago, because I hadn’t seen it in 10 years. I thought, ‘Wow, that’s a really good movie“, says its creator, surprised.
In any case, Liman is more than satisfied with the reception of the production, since “I have not always been lucky enough to have films with wide releases. What I have come to understand is that I make films for the long term. I am a self-centered guy, I would like to receive praise now. But I also recognize that, if I were given the choice, I would rather make movies that people will still be watching in 50 years.“. We’ll see if a sequel eventually becomes a reality.
