Time travelers from a war-torn future, the fate of the world in the balance, and soldiers recruited into a secret military campaign. Of course, Chris Pratt is going to lead something like that. Is it Christopher Nolan‘s sequel, a spin-off of “Edge of Tomorrow“? Nope, it’s “The Tomorrow War,” a brand-new sci-fi action blockbuster that hits Amazon Prime this summer.
In The Tomorrow War, the world is stunned when a group of time travelers arrives from the year 2051 to deliver an urgent message: Thirty years in the future, humanity is losing a global war against a deadly alien species. The only hope for survival is for soldiers and civilians from the present to be transported to the future and join the fight. Among those recruited is a high school teacher and family man Dan Forester (Chris Pratt). Determined to save the world for his young daughter, Dan teams up with a brilliant scientist (Yvonne Strahovski) and his estranged father (J.K. Simmons) in a desperate quest to rewrite the fate of the planet.
