Anne Hathaway Praises Tom Cruise Movie Digger Despite Box Office Struggles

Actor Anne Hathaway has awarded the new film Digger a top review on the social media platform Letterboxd, calling it a brilliant movie, according to reports by The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline Film Adaptations. The film is a satirical black comedy written and directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu. Hathaway praised the project as smart, aggressive, funny, and ambitious, encouraging audiences to decide on the film for themselves. [1][2]

The public praise comes after Hathaway's own recent movie, Verity, topped Digger at the opening weekend box office, according to The Hollywood Reporter and Yahoo. The Hollywood Reporter noted that critics have given Digger a negative reception, while reports from Collider Book Adaptations state that the theatrical release is turning out to be a major financial flop, with projected losses reaching 250 million dollars.

The feature stars Tom Cruise as an egotistical oil tycoon who attempts to stop a natural disaster that he unleashed, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Collider Book Adaptations reported that the storyline gives Cruise an unusual role where his character is unable to save the day. [1][3]

Along with her five star rating for Digger, Hathaway listed several other films as her favorites on the platform, including Moonstruck, It Happened One Night, Mirror, and Phantom Thread, according to The Hollywood Reporter. IMDb also noted that the post marked Hathaway's first review on Letterboxd. [1][10]
