Tom Cruise's upcoming sci-fi epic, originally titled Oblivion, has attracted five actresses who are auditioning this weekend for the lead role: Jessica Chastain, Olivia Wilde, Brit Marling, Noomi Rapace and Olga Kurylenko.

Universal has dropped the original title for the director Joseph Kosinski's sci-fi epic, and has renamed the film Horizons.

Tom Cruise will star as Jack, a man who lives in the clouds above Earth and heads to its surface to repair drones that essentially keep the planet safe from an alien race that has all but wiped out humanity.
