We still don\u2019t know a ton about whatever Tom Cruise and Alejandro I\u00f1\u00e1rritu have been cooking up over the past couple of years, but we at least know when we\u2019ll be able to see it. Digger is the name of the new film, and Warner Bros. has it dated for October 2, 2026. The film also comes with a new tagline: \u201cA comedy of catastrophic proportions.\u201d You can check out the film\u2019s new poster and a brief teaser, which sees Tom Cruise\u2019s silhouette as the titular Digger, below.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Otherwise, details about the project remain scant. Deadline had speculated over a year ago<\/a> that the film would concern a powerful global figure who tried to convince people he was some kind of savior. The trade now reports<\/a> that I\u00f1\u00e1rritu shot down that suggestion at Cannes. \u201cNo, [is] the thing that I can tell you. This is a wild comedy of catastrophic proportions,\u201d the director said. (Hey, that\u2019s the tagline!) \u201cIt\u2019s insane. He makes me laugh every day. The range that I discovered working with Tom is unprecedented for me as a director. I was so fucking impressed and happy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The other thing we do know is who will join Cruise in the cast. As of October 2024, Jesse Plemons, Sandra H\u00fcller, John Goodman, and Michael Stuhlbarg were cast; IndieWire reports<\/a> today that Riz Ahmed and Emma D\u2019Arcy are also now on board. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
