"All You Need Is Kill" is a definitely a title that stands out, but is it the most effective? Apparently not, as the folks behind Doug Liman's sci-fi actioner have changed the movie's title to "Edge of Tomorrow."
But don't worry: There will still be plenty of killing in this adaptation of the graphic novel by Hiroshi Sakurazaka, in which Tom Cruise plays Lt. Col. Bill Cage, a soldier who wears a pretty sweet robot suit to fight aliens in what seems like a never-ending war.
What's actually happening is that Cage has gotten stuck in some sort of time loop, like "Groundhog Day" except with war and aliens. Luckily for Cage, he's actually honing his alien-killing skills with each time hiccup. His colleague in time-skipping/alien-killing is Rita Vrataski, an equally lethal special forces soldier played by Emily Blunt.
"Edge of Tomorrow" will be one of the many presentations at San Diego Comic-Con later this week. Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow will show off some fancy footage from the film, which is set to arrive in theaters June 6, 2014.
