'Oblivion' Concept Art

Oblivion (2013) is an upcoming science fiction thriller film based on a graphic novel of the same name. It's directed and co-produced by Joseph Kosinski who directed Tron: Legacy.

The rights were bought by Disney, but they let the property go after demanding a PG rating. It was felt this would "creatively strangle" the film, so Universal bought it and plans to make it PG-13.
 
Some concept art has leaked that give some idea of the scope and scale of the film. It's based around a world destroyed and what's left of humanity lives high in the sky.

Official Synopsis:
Tom Cruise stars in Oblivion, an original and groundbreaking cinematic event from the director of TRON: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes. On a spectacular future Earth that has evolved beyond recognition, one man’s confrontation with the past will lead him on a journey of redemption and discovery as he battles to save mankind. Jack Harper (Cruise) is one of the last few drone repairmen stationed on Earth. Part of a massive operation to extract vital resources after decades of war with a terrifying threat known as the Scavs, Jack’s mission is nearly complete. Living and patrolling the breathtaking skies from thousands of feet above, his soaring existence is brought crashing down when he rescues a beautiful stranger from a downed spacecraft. Her arrival triggers a chain of events that forces him to question everything he knows and puts the fate of humanity in his hands.

Oblivion will be in theaters next year on April 19, 2013.
