Coming via Apple today, we have another trailer for Oblivion, the Tom Cruise- starring sci-fi from director Joseph Kosinski. It’s a cracking little trailer, and has us looking forward to the film when it is released on April the 12th.

Also starring Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, and Nicolaj Coster-Waldau, the film tells the story of a future where humanity has recently won a costly war against a hostile alien race. This has left Earth barely habitable, with most of the population relocating to orbital space stations. Cruise’s character is essentially a human Wall-E, sent to clean up and repair robotic drones. Obviously things all go pear-shaped and action ensues.

Tom Cruise stars in Oblivion, an original and groundbreaking cinematic event from the director of TRON: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes. On a spectacular future Earth that has evolved beyond recognition, one man’s confrontation with the past will lead him on a journey of redemption and discovery as he battles to save mankind.
