Tom Cruise’s new film “Digger” underperforms at the global box office after a weak opening weekend. IndieWire reports the movie opens with about $8 million, framing it as the biggest box-office bomb of Cruise’s career.
Multiple outlets describe the release as a potentially major financial loss. IndieWire and the Daily Mail both cite studio-source estimates that the film could lose roughly $150 million or more, characterizing it as a historic failure. The coverage also notes that the film’s early reception is polarizing, with the performance at launch falling far short of expectations built during the promotional period.
Across the accounts, the shared focus is on the same outcome—an unexpectedly low opening and projections of large losses—while wording differs between outlets, including how they label the scale of the flop.
