As cinematic oeuvres go, the one celebrated here takes some beating. From sci-fi blockbusters (<em>War Of The Worlds<\/em>, <em>Edge Of Tomorrow<\/em>) to action-packed thrill rides (<em>Mission: Impossible<\/em>, <em>Top Gun<\/em>), and from legal dramas (<em>A Few Good Men<\/em>) to absurd comedies (<em>Tropic Thunder<\/em>) to powerhouse dramas (<em>Rain Man<\/em>, <em>Born On The Fourth Of July<\/em>) and pure classics (<em>Jerry Maguire<\/em>, <em>Risky Business<\/em>, <em>Rock Of Ages<\/em>), the man&#8217;s done it all. Or so we thought. Slapped on at the end of Cruise&#8217;s iconic moment stuffed career montage is a fresh few seconds of new <em>Digger<\/em> footage, teasing just a tiny bit more of a plum-suited, prosthetic-laden, white-haired Cruise as Digger Rockwell, the eccentric southern oil baron at the heart of I\u00f1\u00e1rritu&#8217;s latest. \u201cWhen all else fails, you hit \u2019em with the truth,&#8221; zings Cruise&#8217;s Rockwell in the teaser. &#8220;Hit \u2019em with the hard truth. Just, bang bang bang!\u201d Bang bang bang indeed, Mr. C!<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span class=\"content_content__i0P3p\" data-test=\"content\"><\/p>\n<p>A 35mm VistaVision epic \u2014 penned by the director alongside his&nbsp;<em>Birdman<\/em> collaborators Alexander Dinelaris&nbsp;and Nicolas Giacobone, and acclaimed playwright Sabina Berman \u2014 <em>Digger<\/em> looks set to find Cruise back in out-and-out comedy territory for the first time since <em>Tropic Thunder<\/em>, putting down the parachute and taking his foot off the motorbike-careening-off-a-cliff&#8217;s pedal to bring his live-wire energy to something wholly different. And, what&#8217;s more, he&#8217;s bringing Riz Ahmed, Sandra H\u00fcller, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Jesse Plemons with him for the ride, which will follow the ramifications of Digger Rockwell&#8217;s company triggering an ecological disaster with potentially nuclear consequences. Here&#8217;s hoping <em>Digger<\/em> is the bomb \u2014 and surely not <em>a bomb<\/em> \u2014 when it hits cinemas on 2 October.
