More About Edge Of Tomorrow
The film’s story takes the audience to the future when most of Europe is seen being taken over by an alien race, where Major William Cage (Cruise) is forced to join a landing operation against them. However, this is where he “lives, dies and repeats,” as the character gets stuck in some sort of time loop and ends up living the same day repeatedly.
Emily Blunt plays Sergeant Rita Vrataski, who teams up with Cage, setting the stage for a war against aliens. With a decade since its release, diehard fans have been speculating about a sequel; however, the answer is still unclear.
