Mexican filmmaker Alejandro González Iñárritu is developing a work featuring Tom Cruise, focusing on the powerful oil elite and the impending climate crisis. The project, titled “Digger”, is described as an irregular yet ambitious political satire, employing sharp wit and innovative structural techniques. The narrative reportedly shines through its theatrical presentation and a strong supporting cast. However, the film falters when excessive explanation undermines the impact of its visual storytelling. Despite this, “Digger” promises a critical examination of contemporary issues within a distinctive artistic framework, set against the backdrop of the oil industry’s influence. The piece initially appeared on EL NACIONAL.
