Full Metal Bitch: Emily Blunt Wants To Return in EDGE OF TOMORROW 2
Doug Liman’s Edge of Tomorrow 2 with Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt has been in the works forever now. And today Blunt says she still hopes it happens.
Blunt tells IndieWire: “I think there’s an idea, that he says is great. And he says this guy came in and cracked the case. How the stars will all align for us to be able to do it. I don’t know. I hope they do. Tom and I are going to be 70 before we make another one. It’s going to look a bit weird. We’ll have to do a real flashforward one. We’ll go full ‘Irishman,’ it’ll be the ‘Irishman’ version of ‘Edge of Tomorrow.’ Who knows? I hope, I’m going to talk to Doug about it.”
Bring it on, I say.

The original film begins when Earth falls under attack from invincible aliens and no military unit in the world is able to beat them. Maj. William Cage (Tom Cruise), an officer who has never seen combat, is assigned to a suicide mission. Killed within moments, Cage finds himself thrown into a time loop, in which he relives the same brutal fight — and his death — over and over again. However, Cage’s fighting skills improve with each encore, bringing him and a comrade (Emily Blunt) ever closer to defeating the aliens.
The film sports a killer 90% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes with a Critics Consensus that reads: Gripping, well-acted, funny, and clever, Edge of Tomorrow offers entertaining proof that Tom Cruise is still more than capable of shouldering the weight of a blockbuster action thriller.
