The human race is in danger of being wiped off the face of the Earth in 2051. When time travellers come to the present to deliver the sinister news that the human race will be eliminated in 11 months, they recruit an army of soldiers and civilians who will be transported to the future to fight the catastrophic alien threat.
Dan Forester (Chris Pratt), a high school teacher and army veteran, enlists to save his wife from having to join, even though 70 percent of draftees do not return. Determined to save the world for his young daughter, Dan teams up with a scientist and his estranged father to alter the course of the future.
Despite the seriousness of the film's trailer, Chris Pratt's charismatic and goofy persona shines through. It is reminiscent of his role as Peter Quill in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy series, and Pratt's prowess in the action genre is once again maximized in the The Tomorrow War. The movie is also Pratt's first foray into executive producing a feature film.
Directed by Chris McKay, The Tomorrow War also features Yvonne Strahovski, J.K. Simmons, Edwin Hodge, Sam Richardson, and Betty Gilpin.
