Tom Cruise unwittingly kickstarts an apocalyptic disaster in seriously odd first trailer for black comedy Digger
The first trailer for Digger is here
The first trailer for Digger, Alejandro G. Iñárritu and Tom Cruise's next film, is here, and it's a seriously odd tease for the black comedy film.
In the footage, which you can watch above, Tom Cruise (transformed as his character Digger Rockwell) spends his time in a luxurious mansion taking care of his strange-looking cat. However, disaster strikes when he ignores a warning from an employee about an iceberg, which kickstarts a chain reaction that looks likely to destroy the planet.
Along with Cruise, the rest of the cast includes Sandra Hüller, Emma D'Arcy, Jesse Plemons, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Riz Ahmed, and Sophie Wilde.
The film's official logline reads: "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."
"Honestly, there's nothing like that experience I've ever had before, just because of how motivated, focused, hardworking, and inspiring Tom Cruise is on set. The energy he has and the positivity is crazy. It's like nothing I've ever seen before," Ahmed has said of the film. "Then Alejandro, the attention to detail, the vision, the ambition of it, as well, every day is just like, 'Wow, this is kind of nuts.'"
Cruise was last seen in last summer's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, while Iñárritu hasn't made an English-language film since 2015's The Revenant, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy.
The film arrives this October 2. In the meantime, check out our guide to all the other most exciting upcoming movies.
