Tom Cruise is now officially set to star in Universal Pictures’ live-action Wall-E remake Oblivion. Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Tron: Legacy), the film centers a lonely soldier (Cruise) left behind on an uninhabitable earth to do shit work. One day, a woman crash lands on the planet and they fall in love.

Oh, and there’s a roach.

What? Oblivion isn’t a live-action remake of Pixar’s Wall-E? Are you sure? OK, OK. Oblivion is a post apocalyptic sci-fi thriller that finds people living on clouds high above a destroyed earth. Cruise is a soldier left on our planet to fix drones that kill dangerous alien life forms. He meets a girl and rethinks his life.

Oblivion is budgeted at a cool $100 million. Cameras will begin to roll in October.
