The cast includes Sandra Huller, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jesse Plemons, Sophie Wilde, Riz Ahmed, and Emma D’Arcy. This film marks Cruise's first project after signing a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery to develop and produce theatrical films, with his last collaboration with the studio being Edge of Tomorrow a decade ago.
The plot details of Digger remain undisclosed. However, Warner Bros. has described Cruise's character as “the most powerful man in the world” on a mission to prove himself as humanity’s saviour before a disaster he initiated causes widespread destruction.
Filmed in the UK over six months, Digger marks Inarritu first English-language film since The Revenant. The film is directed and produced by Inarritu, who co-wrote the script with Nicolas Giacobone, Alexander Dinelaris, and Sabina Berman.
