New OBLIVION Featurette Focuses on The Sky Tower
Universal Pictures has released a great new behind the scenes featurette for Oblivion that puts a focus on The Sky Tower. This place is like a living, working environment described as a military outpost that's built 3000 feet above the ground. It's pretty amazing to see what they did to bring this set to life on the big screen. They actually used very little green screen for the scenes shot in the Sky Tower. If you liked the Bubbleship featurette, you're going to enjoy this one as well.
The Joseph Kosinski-directed film also stars Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, and Melissa Leo. Oblivion hits theaters on April 19th, 2013.
Tom Cruise stars in Oblivion, an original and groundbreaking cinematic event from the director of TRON: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes. On a spectacular future Earth that has evolved beyond recognition, one man’s confrontation with the past will lead him on a journey of redemption and discovery as he battles to save mankind.
Jack Harper (Cruise) is one of the last few drone repairmen stationed on Earth. Part of a massive operation to extract vital resources after decades of war with a terrifying threat known as the Scavs, Jack’s mission is nearly complete.
Living in and patrolling the breathtaking skies from thousands of feet above, his soaring existence is brought crashing down when he rescues a beautifulstranger from a downed spacecraft. Her arrival triggers a chain of events that forces him to question everything he knows and puts the fate of humanity in his hands.
