Read more about Jack Harper at: Wikipedia Official Site: Universal Oblivion is a 2013 American post-apocalyptic action-adventure film co-produced and directed by Joseph Kosinski, and produced by Peter Chernin with screenplay by Karl Gajdusek and Michael deBruyn, starring Tom Cruise in the main role alongside Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Morgan Freeman and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in supporting roles. Oblivion, based on Kosinski's unpublished graphic novel of the same name, pays homage to 1970s science fiction films. Oblivion takes place in 2077, on an Earth devastated by war with extraterrestrials that has caused humanity to relocate itself to Titan. The film follows the story of Jack Harper, a technician who has been sent back to Earth to service drones used in the fight against remaining extraterrestrials (scavengers). After witnessing a spacecraft crash, from which he is able to rescue a survivor, Harper is captured by scavengers and fights against a new and evolving alien threat. Oblivion was released in IMAX by Universal Pictures on April 19, 2013 and held its world premiere in Buenos Aires on March 26, 2013. The film grossed $286 million worldwide, on a production budget of $120 million. By March 14, 2077, Jack Harper and Victoria “Vika†Olsen are among the few humans left on Earth. Sixty years earlier, a race of alien scavengers destroyed the Moon and invaded Earth; humanity won the war, but nuclear weapons and the loss of the Moon left most of the planet uninhabitable. With Vika as his communications officer, Jack serves as “Tech 49â€, repairing the combat drones that hunt the remaining scavengers and guard the “hydrorig†generators converting seawater into fusion energy. Led by mission director Sally from aboard the “Tet†space station orbiting Earth, they will soon leave for humanity's new home on Titan. Although their memories have been wiped, Jack has recurring dreams of a life before the war with an unknown woman.
