Tom Cruise Is Literally Back in Action in Edge of Tomorrow

Tom Cruise is here to kick butt and take names — this time with Emily Blunt at his side. The trailer for the stars' new action film Edge of Tomorrow (previously titled All You Need Is Kill) is out, and it's got a lot of heavy machinery, including Cruise himself. The actor is outfitted in what looks like a combination of a Transformers suit and that crazy brace Matt Damon wears in Elysium. He and Blunt play soldiers caught in the middle of a time loop. Every time they die in the midst of some epic future-style battle, they just wake up and have to live it all over again. It's like Groundhog Day but more painful.

There's a lot going on here: aliens, explosions, and romance? We'll see if they can fit it all in gracefully. I'm always up for seeing Cruise bring the action; I just hope there's more to the story than a ton of repetitive battle sequences. One thing I love about this trailer? The bizarre computer-y song playing. The movie opens on June 6, and you can take a look at the trailer when you keep reading.
