But when surface drone repairman Jak discovers a mysterious woman in a crash-landed pod, it sets off an unstoppable chain of events that will force him to question everything he knows.

No word on what Morgan Freeman will play in OBLIVION but it’s apparently a big role. OBLIVION is scheduled for a release date of July 19th, 2013.
