Warner Bros. is looking to release the film – which will be directed by Doug Liman, based on the Hiroshi Sakurazaka novel of the same name and – on March 12, 2014.

The story – which sounds like a cross between Source Code and Aliens – takes place in the near future when an alien race, called Mimics, have invaded the earth.

Cruise plays army officer Lt. Col. Bill Cage, who is killed within minutes of embarking on a suicide mission. But Cage then somehow wakes up alive and well back at the beginning of the same terrible day, trapped in a time loop in which he dies and is resurrected over and over again.

That’s a brief overview of the forthcoming flick, with a full and spoiler-heavy synopsis over at Deadline.
