Overview
- Warner Bros. on Tuesday released poster art and a brief first look at Digger by embedding footage at the end of a Tom Cruise career retrospective.
- The studio confirmed the full trailer will arrive July 13 and that Digger will open only in cinemas worldwide on October 2, 2026.
- Tom Cruise plays Digger Rockwell, a corrupt oil tycoon whose company sparks an ecological disaster that the character must try to avert.
- Alejandro G. Iñárritu directs, Emmanuel Lubezki shot the film on 35mm VistaVision, and the ensemble cast includes Riz Ahmed, John Goodman, Sandra Hüller and Jesse Plemons.
- Footage shown earlier at CinemaCon drew strong industry response and has generated early awards-season talk while also signaling a markedly different, character-driven turn for Cruise and a prestige bet by Warner Bros.
