Warner Bros. releases the first full trailer for Alejandro González Iñárritu’s comedy-drama “Digger,” introducing Tom Cruise as Digger Rockwell, described as “the most powerful man in the world.” Multiple outlets highlight Cruise’s unusually altered appearance, saying his role features extensive physical transformation and prosthetics, including false teeth, making him largely unrecognisable compared with his usual screen look. In interviews and trailer coverage, Cruise discusses how the production challenged him, and he reflects that he had not previously worked with something that pushed him in the way this role did. The film is framed as a satire in which Rockwell embarks on a frantic mission tied to preventing an ecological disaster or global catastrophe. Several sources also connect the role to Iñárritu’s long-awaited project, describing it as a significant creative collaboration and a return to audacious auteur filmmaking. “Digger” is set for a worldwide release in early October, with a supporting cast that includes Riz Ahmed, Sandra Hüller, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jesse Plemons, and Emma D’Arcy.
