Photographed by Joe Maher/Getty Images. Director Alejandro González Iñárritu tackles wealth inequality, environmental harm, power, and corruption in his new film Digger. It's a satirical look at Texan oil tycoon Digger Rockwell, played by a grumpy, old-looking Tom Cruise. It's a caricature of what we imagine really happens behind closed doors, and as outlandish and ridiculous as it sometimes seems, it's also believable. Because greed corrupts and can drive humans to become rotten to the core. I won't spoil the film for you, as there's a twist that you should experience for yourself, but it will keep you entertained. It's likely to be a polarising film, but love it or hate it, Iñárritu will have you thinking. With questions around AI use and how we're slowly (or rapidly?) killing the planet, you might walk out of the cinema feeling a bit rattled. When I sat down to chat to star Sophie Wilde, she opened up about what she wants people to take away from Digger, whether she's afraid of AI, and more.

I was being painted as this close friend of a guy I hadn’t spoken to in years and, honestly, amid all the shit two celebrities threw at each other, that bit was the most odd,” Paul told the publication.
