OBLIVION - New Featurette Tells Post-Apocalyptic Earth Backstory
Universal Pictures has released a new 21-minute in-depth behind the scenes featurette for Joseph Kosibski's Oblivion. The featurette shows a ton of spectacular new footage from the film and gives us some backstory on how the post-apocalyptic earth in the film came about. A few of the other featurettes we've seen are also included in this video, as well. I don't know if you've seen any reviews for this film yet, but they haven't really been kind. I still think the movie looks great though, and I'm looking forward to seeing it.
Oblivion hits theaters next weekend on April 19th!
The movie stars Tom Cruise, Olga Kurylenka, Morgan Freeman, Andrea Riseborough, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, and Melissa Leo.
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 beautiful stranger 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.
