The cast includes Yvonne Strahovski, J.K. Simmons, Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson, Edwin Hodge, Jasmine Mathews, Ryan Kiera Armstrong,Keith Powers, amd Seychelle Gabriel. The film was originally scheduled by Paramount Pictures for theatrical release in December of 2020, but premiered on the Amazon Prime streaming service on July 2, 2021.
The following weapons were used in the film The Tomorrow War:
Handguns
IWI Desert Eagle Mark XIX
James Forester Sr. (J.K. Simmons) uses a Desert Eagle Mark XIX against the alien queen in the climactic battle.
Kimber Warrior SOC
Dan brings his personal Kimber Warrior SOC fitted with a Surefire X300 and extended magazine release when he is drafted and uses it as his sidearm throughout the film. He uses it most prominently during the first encounter with the Whitespikes in Miami Beach and during the climax in the Russian Arctic.
Walther PPQ M2
Charlie's handgun is a Walther PPQ M2.
Rifles
BCM rifle (as the "MK III" and "MK IV")
The main rifles issued to conscripted soldiers sent forward in time are modified BCM carbines with HERA Arms CQR furniture. They are seen with various accessories, including Trijicon ACOG scopes, Trijicon SRO reflex sights in offset mounts, V Seven Helios linear compensators, and Inforce Gen2 WMLs. As seen in the image below, Xtreme Props, which supplied the weapons for the production, built two different BCM rifle designs: The "MK III", which has an 8" barrel, and the "MK IV", which has a 14.5" barrel. Since the weapons' rail handguards are completely covered by BCM rail cover sections, it is not clear whether they are BCM KMR (KeyMod) or MCMR (M-LOK) rails.
Sgt. Diaz (Seychelle Gabriel) shows off the rifle at the base.
