            The incredibly underrated sci-fi/action movie, Edge of Tomorrow that starred Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt is getting a sequel. The Doug Liman-directed hit came out of nowhere back in 2014 and many have been clamoring for a sequel and Collider confirmed it this past weekend.

            The film will be titled Live Die Repeat and Repeat which should sound familiar to most as the title changed to Live. Die. Repeat. for the home video release. With the source material being titled All You Need Is Kill, it’s ironic that it’s gone through so many changes with what it is called in the eyes of fans. Liman also confirmed that Cruise and Blunt will return for the follow-up but said plans for the film are more of a “when, rather than an if” at this point.

            All three talents have busy upcoming schedules with Cruise’s latest, The Mummy being released this summer before he reunites with Liman himself on American Made, a crime/thriller that is in post-production and set for a September release date. Blunt is currently filming Mary Poppins Returns and Liman is attached to direct the DC Comics adaptation, Justice League Dark so all schedules will have to be clear before Live Die Repeat and Repeat films. It might be years away, but it sounds like it will truly be worth the wait.
