In response to Doug Liman, he and Tom Cruise are nonetheless discussing making an Fringe of Tomorrow sequel ten years after the movie’s launch.

Tom Cruise is a very busy man. When he’s not defying demise on the set of a Mission: Unimaginable film, lighting up the crimson carpet, or making offers to assist reinvigorate the theater-going expertise, you’ll find him watching films with Doug Liman. I’m not kidding. In response to Liman, he and Cruise watched their collaborative movie Fringe of Tomorrow collectively and are nonetheless discussing making a sequel.

Talking with Empire journal, Liman advised the outlet, “No, we keep talking about it,” when requested if an Fringe of Tomorrow sequel is within the playing cards. “We love that world,” Liman added, “Tom and I just actually rewatched it about two months ago, because I hadn’t seen it in 10 years,” Liman mentioned. “I was like, ‘Wow, that is a really good movie.’”

Apparently, all of the items align for an Fringe of Tomorrow sequel, together with Emily Blunt’s curiosity in returning to the “die, die, and die again” world impressed by Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s novel All You Want Is Kill. Within the Doug Liman-directed motion movie, a soldier combating aliens, Cage (Tom Cruise), will get to relive the identical day repeatedly. As he repeatedly spawns into the identical state of affairs, Cage and Rita (Emily Blunt) devise a method for Cage to outlive the battle and alter pivotal occasions to safe victory. Invoice Paxton and Brendan Gleeson additionally star.

“I haven’t necessarily always had the good fortune of having movies that have huge opening weekends,” Liman defined to Empire. “‘Bourne Identity’ lost to ‘Scooby-Doo’ [on] its opening weekend. And ‘Swingers’ came and went from the theaters. What I’ve come to understand is, I’m making movies for the long term. I’m an ego-driven guy, I’d like to get accolades now. But I also recognize that, if I was given the choice, I’ll choose making films that people 50 years from now are still watching.”

Funnily sufficient, I caught Fringe of Tomorrow taking part in on my buddy’s TV final weekend. It was taking part in within the background whereas he ready meals. Whereas we prepped the greens and BBQ meats, we rewatched the movie. It’s nearly as good as I keep in mind, and I’d welcome a sequel in a sizzling minute. How about you?
