Edge of Tomorrow
Director Doug Liman has admitted he has no musical theme ifEdge of Tomorrow 2will ever happen . For five year , there ’s been talking of a continuation being made toEdge of Tomorrow , but with little to show for it in good order now . The original movie has only ameliorate its critical status since it came out , and is now regard by many as one of the best sci - fi action films released in the last decade . However , it was only a humble achiever at the box office , which is why Warner Bros. has never been all that concerned about gettingEdge of Tomorrow 2off the basis and running game .
That has n’t stopped Liman and his collaborators from trying , though . Just last month , the film producer confirmedtheEdge of Tomorrow 2script draftby Matthew Robinson ( Dora and the Lost City of Gold ) is polish off and quick to go as presently as it gets a green - Christ Within . job is , between his and maven Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt ’s schedules , Liman is n’t certain that ’s going to materialize anytime soon ( if at all ) .

In an consultation withColliderabout the second time of year of his YouTube serial , Impulse , Liman confessed he"honestly [ has ] no idea"ifEdge of Tomorrow 2will ever get made , saying"Between my schedule , Tom [ Cruise ] ’s schedule , and Emily [ Blunt ] ’s schedule , it ’s knotty " . However , he went on to clarify that he still very much want to make it materialise , teasing"There ’s a caboodle more story to be told " .
Scheduling does seem to be a big issue fore edge of Tomorrow 2at the moment . Cruise is currently gear up to shootMission : Impossible 7 and 8back to back for release dates in 2021 and 2022 , and will also have to make elbow room to promoteTop Gun : Maverickin mid-2020 . Blunt is likewise interfering right now , so finding a time for them to reunify in the near - future will be unmanageable . In the past tense , Liman has saidEdge of Tomorrow 2could be his next movie , though he too is preoccupy for the meter being . The filmmaker is trying to finish his YA Koran adaptationChaos Walking , which has already been delayed once andunderwent heavy reshootsback in the bounce . At this point , it ’s virtually - impossible to say when , incisively , Chaos Walkingwill see the luminousness of day and Liman will be free again .
As challenging asEdge of Tomorrow 2sounds , it would n’t be a total loss if it never happened . The original film works dead well on its own , even ifsome of its time - loop mechanicsdon’t completely hold up ( though that ’s very much clear for public debate ) . And with theMission : Impossiblemovies go strong than ever , some might even prefer Cruise to focus his attention on that dealership , rather than trying to knock out a more or less unnecessaryEdge of Tomorrowfollowup . Clearly , however , ifEdge of Tomorrow 2ever does number to pass , it ’ll only be because Liman , Cruise , and Bluntfeel they ’ve got a home - run on their custody , as opposed to them bow to pressure from studio executives .
