“Jack’s Moto Bike” Featurette For ‘Oblivion’ – Starring Tom Cruise, Olga Kurylenko & Morgan Freeman
Apr 16th
Following the “Sky Tower”, “World Of”, “Iceland”, “IMAX”, “Music Of”, “Earl’s Peak”, “NY Public Library” and “Bubbleship” featurettes, Universal Pictures has unleashed this “Jack’s Moto Bike” featurette for writer/director Joseph Kosinski’s (Tron: Legacy) ‘Oblivion.’ Starring Tom Cruise (Commander Jack Harper), Olga Kurylenko (Julia Rusakova), Andrea Riseborough (Victoria Olsen), Morgan Freeman (Malcolm Beech), Mellissa Leo (Sally) and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Sykes), ‘Oblivion’ is based on Kosinski’s own Radical Publishing comic book series.
In 2073, a former-Marine Commander Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) is one of the last few drone repairmen stationed at Earth which was nearly destroyed by an alien invasion 60 years ago. As part of a massive operation to extract the planet’s remaining vital resources, he lives in an airborne “town” floating thousands of meters above the Earth. His mission nearly complete, Jack’s soaring existence comes crashing down when he rescues a female stranger (Olga Kurylenko) from a downed spacecraft. Her arrival triggers a series of events that forces Jack to question everything he knows about the war and its aftermath. Out now in the UK, ‘Oblivion’ is set for a April 19th release in the US. The official synopsis for the film can be read below the featurette. My interview with Tom Cruise for ‘Oblivion’ can be read here.

Look out for part 2 of this interview later this week.
Can you remember your first time meeting with or speaking to Joseph Kosinski about ‘Oblivion’? Maybe even seeing some of his concept art, reading the script…?
Tom Cruise: Yeah. I read the story for ‘Oblivion’ and I’d seen the commercials that Joe had directed prior, so I called him up. We met, he showed me pieces of ‘Tron: Legacy’ and I was amazed by it. I thought, “Wow. This guy’s a big filmmaker, and he’s very talented.” Joe is someone who creates other worlds, and his vision for ‘Oblivion’ is what interested me. I’ve never seen anything like it: the way that he wanted to direct it and all the elements that were involved. Although I haven’t made a sci-fi film since ‘Minority Report,’ I love the genre and I knew that Joe works well in it. And what I love about Joe, who I think is a visionary filmmaker, is that he can make a very personal story, but put it in a massive landscape with epic stakes. Literally the fate of the world is at stake. Also, I just loved the stories unique twists and turns, which happen all the way up to the very last frame of the movie.
