“Digger” marks an important reunion between Hollywood and prestige cinema. It is Iñárritu’s first English-language film since The Revenant, which won multiple Oscars. The movie was filmed in the United Kingdom over six months. Iñárritu not only directs the film but also co-wrote the script with his longtime collaborators Nicolas Giacobone and Alexander Dinelaris, along with writer Sabina Berman. Both Iñárritu and Cruise are also serving as producers on the project.

Tom Cruise plays the lead role of Digger Rockwell. While the full story is being kept secret, the studio shared a brief description of his character. He is described as “the most powerful man in the world” who goes on a desperate mission to prove that he is humanity’s savior. This mission comes after a disaster he has caused, which now threatens to destroy everything. The film promises a mix of dark comedy, drama, and intense storytelling.
The movie also features a strong supporting cast, including Sandra Hüller, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jesse Plemons, Sophie Wilde, Riz Ahmed, and Emma D’Arcy. “Digger” is especially important for Cruise, as it is his first film under a new deal with Warner Bros. Discovery, which he signed earlier this year. His last collaboration with the studio was Edge of Tomorrow over a decade ago.
