Cruise Goes Unrecognizable as Oil Baron in Digger Trailer
Tom Cruise unveils an unrecognizable persona in the Digger trailer: a beer-belly, comb-over-clad oil magnate with a thick Southern accent, in a film directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu. The story centers on a magnate whose company may trigger an ecological disaster and nuclear war, with John Goodman playing ailing U.S. President; the film carries a $125 million budget and marks Cruise’s first non-franchise lead since 2017, signaling another bold auteur-driven Warner Bros. gamble.
