Digger

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Alejandro G. Iñárritu (THE REVENANT, BIRDMAN, AMORES PERROS) takes one of the year’s “biggest swings”  with his latest film, DIGGER. An almost unrecognizable Tom Cruise stars as eccentric, wealthy oil tycoon Digger Rockwell (who may be the most powerful man in the world). When his reckless drilling causes a massive environmental disaster—triggering a catastrophic Arctic ice-shelf break that threatens a global tsunami—he embarks on a frantic mission to save the world and convince people he is their savior. With Riz Ahmed, John Goodman, Sandra Hüller, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Jesse Plemons.

DIGGER (Alejandro G. Iñárritu, 2026 / 128 mins / 14A) The most powerful man in the world embarks on a frantic mission to prove he is humanity’s savior before the disaster he’s unleashed destroys everything.

What People Are Saying

"Iñárritu’s technique transcends gimmickry. The sense of a continuous, organic form, which he chased so aggressively in “Birdman,” springs to life here in all manner of unintended ways."

The New Yorker

""Cruise has played arrogant bastards before, but this is one of his better turns, right up there with those in 'Tropic Thunder' and 'Magnolia'."

Toronto Star

"'Digger' is a huge swing which may not connect for a lot of people, but its commitment to its messiness is nothing if not fascinating."
