Emily Blunt told IndieWire about the current state of the second "Frontiers of the Future", and also admitted that the beginning of the filming of the project was postponed because of her employment in the film "Mary Poppins Returns."
"I was offered to take part in the sequel just two months before the work on" Mary Poppins. " Tom [Cruz] asked: "Can you start shooting this fall?" And I said: "No, dude, I can not. I will play Mary Poppins all year long! ". I know that [director] Doug Lyman has one amazing idea, which he caught on fire, they just need to correctly assign it. The early version of the script was already ready, but now, as far as I understand, they are creating a new version, "says Blunt.
Previously, Lyman himself reported that the "Edge of Tomorrow 2" will be called "Live Die Repeat and Repeat" and will become "not only a sequel, but a prequel", completing the franchise. The installer is going to make the second picture less large-scale, paying special attention to the characters, not action scenes. He also added that Cruz and Blunt will be joined by some new bright hero. Writing the script is entrusted to Joe Shrapnel and Anne Waterhouse.
