@LilyN_1I honestly can’t remember the last time I looked at a Tom Cruise movie’s box-office numbers and thought, “Damn, this is BAD.” But that’s exactly what’s happening with Digger. The film opened to roughly $7.5 million domestically, making it Cruise’s weakest opening in nearly two decades. That’s shocking when you consider the man has spent the last several years turning his movies into genuine theatrical events with Top Gun: Maverick and the Mission: Impossible films. And I think part of the problem is that Digger is almost the complete opposite of what audiences have come to expect from Tom Cruise. This isn’t Cruise running, fighting, flying planes or performing some insane stunt. He’s playing Digger Rockwell, a wealthy oil tycoon, in Alejandro González Iñárritu’s dark, bizarre environmental satire. It’s much closer to the kind of character-driven, strange material Cruise explored earlier in his career with films like Magnolia and Tropic Thunder. And honestly, I respect the decision….🧵9h

@ComplexPopDespite an estimated budget of $160 to $180 million budget, 'Digger' has debuted domestically with just $8 million in the box office. The Tom Cruise led film opens as the biggest box office bomb of the year, as well as the lowest opening of Cruise's career in over 20 years.48m
