The check onEdge of Tomorrow 2 ’s status came from Liman during a late interview withCBM . He revealed that he hopes the movie will pass off once   Cruise is done filmingMission : unacceptable 7andMission : inconceivable 8back - to - back , especially now that the script by Matthew Robinson is all over .

This is n’t the first time that a script forEdge of Tomorrow 2has been done though . Limansaid the same matter two twelvemonth agobefore the completely raw theme by Marshall became the basis for a rewrite . antecedently ,   Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse ( subspecies ) did the script for the subsequence , but their pitch was scrapped in favor of what Marshall came up with instead . Now that his hand forEdge of Tomorrow 2is also done , hopefully this will be the one that gets the subsequence moving in a positive centering . But , the story with this project proves that this is not a guarantee just because they have a playscript .

While that may be truthful , the desire forEdge of Tomorrow 2has not died down   throughout the maturation procedure . fan of the first motion-picture show are still just as interested in fix another installment , and the near news for them is that the giving name involved appear to still be invested too . Liman stay bright that he ’ll be the one to organize the sequelif it does hap . Meanwhile , it is closely out of the question to envisionEdge of Tomorrow 2happening without Blunt and Cruise returning . Since theMission : Impossiblesequelswill keep Cruise meddlesome for the next twelvemonth or so ,   a decision on whether or not this Modern script is worth shooting may still be a ways off .   When it does come prison term for that verdict to be made though , hopefully it will result in the next small-arm of news fore edge of Tomorrow 2to be the green - light that so many have been wait for .
