[tps_footer]Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt are pushing their own limits to promote their latest movie Edge Of Tomorrow.
The tour started on Wednesday with an early London premiere, moving on to Paris and ending in New York. Three premieres, in three cities, on only one day. Film stars are used to jetting around to launch their projects but not usually on the same day.
Blunt, the thirty one year old actress known from The Devil Wears Prada, says it is typical of her co-star. “When I heard about the premiere idea of three in one day I just said that’s Tom’s idea” she says.
Edge Of Tomorrow is a combination of action, science-fiction, a war movie and a love story, directed by Doug Liman.
Tom Cruise, fifty one, plays military PR man Major William Cage, a quick-talking coward who is forced to fight for humanity against an alien invasion. Blunt is the poster girl for the army, a highly-trained warrior and the only person who can help him when he starts living the same day over and over again, never reaching the tomorrow of the title.
Shot in the U.K. at Warner Brothers Leavesden Studios, director Doug Liman says three premieres in twenty-four hours is nothing compared to what they achieved on set.
“Edge Of Tomorrow was an impossible movie to make – harder than anything I’ve ever done before. So, having a premiere day that starts off sounding impossible, really seemed like it would be a great way to finish,” Liman says.[/tps_footer]
