Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures Preview Their Upcoming Lineups
Warner Bros. Pictures: The LEGO Movie — From directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller of 21 Jump Street comes the first ever full-length theatrical LEGO adventure, The LEGO Movie, about a perfectly average LEGO minifigure named Emmet who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which he is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared. The original 3D computer animated story stars Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Nick Offerman, and Alison Brie, with Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman. Warner Bros. Pictures: Edge of Tomorrow – Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt star in Warner Bros. Pictures’ and Village Roadshow Pictures’ epic sci-fi thriller Edge of Tomorrow, from director Doug Liman. In a near future, an alien race has hit the Earth in an unrelenting assault. Lt. Col. Bill Cage (Cruise) is dropped into what amounts to a suicide mission and killed within minutes, but is inexplicably thrown into a time loop, forced to fight and die again and again. But with each battle, his skills increase, and he and Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski (Blunt) get one step closer to defeating the enemy.
