Warner Bros. release new “Edge of Tomorrow” trailer

On 30th May, Warner Bros. Studios will be releasing “Edge of Tomorrow“, a live-action adaptation of Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s light novel “All You Need Is Kill” starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt.

The movie is set in the future where humanity has to fight against a hostile alien race known as “Mimics”. Lt. Col. William Cage (Keiji Kiriya in the original novel) is sent out on and killed during his first combat mission, but finds himself trapped in a time-loop where he has to repeat the day leading up to his death over and over again. As he slowly starts to improve in each battle, he is made aware of the legendary Special Forces soldier Rita Vrataski, who is aware of the time-loops and aims to train Cage to exploit it, so that each repetition can take them one step closer to ending the war.

Viz Media published the original novel and are currently serialising a manga adaptation by Ryosuke Takeuchi and Death Note‘s Takeshi Obata in their Weekly Shonen Jump digital magazine.
