New synopsis for Tom Cruise's All You Need Is Kill
Oct 1st 2012, 11:33

All You Need Is Kill, Doug Liman’s forthcoming sci-fi starring-vehicle for Tom Cruise, has released a detailed plot synopsis as well as announcing an official release date. It’s quite a detailed breakdown, which sheds plenty of light upon Cruise’s character, as well as that of co-star Emily Blunt. Check it out below… “The story unfolds in a near future in which a hive-like alien race, called Mimics, have hit the Earth in an unrelenting assault, shredding great cities to rubble and leaving millions of human casualties in their wake. No army in the world can match the speed, brutality or seeming prescience of the weaponized Mimic fighters or their telepathic commanders. But now the world's armies have joined forces for a last stand offensive against the alien horde, with no second chances." “Lt. Col. Bill Cage (Cruise) is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously demoted and then dropped — untrained and ill-equipped — into what amounts to little more than a suicide mission. Cage is killed within minutes, managing to take an Alpha down with him. But, impossibly, he awakens back at the beginning of the same hellish day, and is forced to fight and die again... and again. Direct physical contact with the alien has thrown him into a time loop — dooming him to live out the same brutal combat over and over.” “But with each pass, Cage becomes tougher, smarter, and able to engage the Mimics with increasing skill, alongside Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski (Blunt), who has laid waste to more Mimics than anyone on Earth. As Cage and Rita take the fight to the aliens, each repeated battle becomes an opportunity to find the key to annihilating the alien invaders and saving the Earth.” Phew! Plenty of detail to be getting on with there, then. All You Need Is Kill will co-star Bill Paxton and Charlotte Riley and will open in the US on 14 March 2014. A UK release date has yet to be confirmed…
