Edge of Tomorrow (also marketed as Live Die Repeat: Edge of Tomorrow) is a 2014 American military science-fiction action film directed by Doug Liman, from a screenplay written by Christopher McQuarrie, Jez Butterworth and John-Henry Butterworth. It is a loose adaptation of the 2004 Japanese light novel All You Need Is Kill by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. Starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt, the film takes place in a future where most of Europe is occupied by an alien race known as Mimics. Major William Cage (Cruise), a public relations officer with no combat experience, is forced by his superiors to join a landing operation against the aliens, only to find himself experiencing a time loop as he tries to find a way to defeat the mimics. Bill Paxton, Brendan Gleeson and Noah Taylor appear in supporting roles. In late 2009, 3 Arts Entertainment purchased the rights to All You Need Is Kill and sold the spec script to Warner Bros. Pictures. The studio produced Edge of Tomorrow with the involvement of 3 Arts, the novel's publisher Viz Media, and Australian production company Village Roadshow. Filming began in late 2012, taking place in England: at Warner Bros. Studios in Leavesden, outside London, and other locations, such as London's Trafalgar Square and the coastal Saunton Sands. A total of nine companies handled the visual effects. Edge of Tomorrow was released theatrically in select territories on May 30, 2014, and in the United States on June 6. The film received positive reviews from critics, and grossed $381 million against a $178 million budget.
