Hollywood icon Tom Cruise has cemented his status as one of cinema’s greatest action stars. This time, however, he is set to surprise audiences with a completely different avatar in ‘Digger,’ offering a fresh and unexpected side of his talent.On Tuesday, the actor dropped a new ‘Retrospective Trailer’ of his upcoming black comedy ‘Digger’, from Oscar-winning filmmaker Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu.
Tom Cruise unveils new ‘Digger’ footage
Sharing the footage, Tom penned a reflective caption that read, “For the last 46 years, it has been my privilege to work alongside countless talented artists and crews to create these characters, stories, and films for you all. I’m looking forward to seeing you at the movies! DIGGER. Only in theaters this October.”A newly released clip not only teases fans with some visuals from the upcoming film, but also celebrates Cruise’s remarkable nearly five-decade long career. The footage provides fans a look at Cruise as Digger Rockwell, a larger-than-life figure said to be the most powerful man in the world. Far removed from the action-hero persona that has defined much of his recent work, the role appears to place Cruise in a darkly comic, unpredictable, and offbeat world.

Earlier speaking at the CinemaCon, the ‘Mission: Impossible’ actor couldn’t help but gush over the idea of working with Inarritu, saying, “This was the kind of movie that I wanted to make movies. The movie is wild, it’s funny, and I can’t wait for you all to see it.”Director Innaritu also explained how he first had the idea of ‘Digger’ nine years ago and that he has been discussing it with Cruise over the past seven years.“Watching Tom Cruise becoming Digger Rockwell, I was not prepared for that. Embodying this character, this is another kind of fearless… this role could be his most challenging, hire-wire act,” he said.Besides Cruise in the lead role, the film also stars Sandra Huller, Jesse Plemons, Riz Ahmed, Michael Stuhlbarg, Sophie Wilde, and Emma D’Arcy.
