‘Edge of Tomorrow 2’ director promises second film will ‘revolutionize’ sequels

Edge of Tomorrow’s theme revolved around time travel. Its upcoming sequel seems to be capitalizing on that, at least from director Doug Liman’s perspective. Edge of Tomorrow 2, according to Liman, will be a “sequel that’s a prequel.” He claims it’ll be “so amazing” and “much better than the first.” Liman says, “I had these intellectual ideas on how you should make a sequel that are unlike how anybody else makes a sequel, and this script and this idea fit perfectly into that idea. So it’s gonna revolutionize how people make sequels.”

He won’t talk specifics but he is pretty excited about what the new film will bring. Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt will be reprising their roles in the sequel but there is no release date yet or who the other cast members will be.
