Tom Cruise film Digger earns $3.4 million in opening weekend
Tom Cruise's new movie Digger opened in theaters this Friday with a reported total of $3.4 million.
Heavy promotion did not boost earnings
Warner Bros and the actor promoted the film heavily through podcast appearances and magazine covers. Despite these efforts, the black comedy reportedly hit limits on box office performance. The entire opening weekend is expected to reach around $7.5 million.
Production costs exceeded initial budget
The movie was originally approved with a budget of $125 million. Production problems later increased the total cost to $180 million. Industry reports suggest largely negative reviews hurt the film's financial outlook.
