What’s truly heartbreaking for fans to hear is that Cruise asked Emily Blunt if she could do the Edge of Tomorrow sequel before she shot Mary Poppins Returns.
Not to mention Christopher McQuarrie, who wrote the first Edge of Tomorrow and just wrapped up directing Cruise in Mission: Impossible – Fallout.
Edge of Tomorrow had a troubled marketing campaign, but wound up surprising a lot of people when it was released in 2014.
It looks like one step forward, two steps back for Edge of Tomorrow 2.
