A new image from Doug Liman’s sci-fi thriller ALL YOU NEED IS KILL has emerged over at Entertainment Weekly showing Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt all geared up and ready for war. Unfortunately, we have not gotten a look at the film’s villainous aliens, the “Mimics”, yet, but it shouldn’t be long before we do.
Here’s the synopsis:
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.
Also starring Bill Paxton, Charlotte Riley, Kick Gurry and Marianne Jean-Baptiste, ALL YOU NEED IS KILL opens on June 6, 2014.
