Tom Cruise's Digger on course to lose about $245m after second-weekend drop
Digger, the Tom Cruise eco-satire directed by Alejandro G Iñárritu, fell about 60% in its second weekend and is estimated to lose around $245m.
Digger, the Tom Cruise film directed by Alejandro G Iñárritu, is heading for a loss of around $245m (£185m), according to reports cited by the BBC and The Guardian. Its box office fell about 60% in its second weekend.
The Guardian, citing Variety, says the film took an estimated $3.2m in North America in its second weekend. That compares with $8m on opening weekend. Its domestic total is $14.4m and its global total is $35.3m, according to that report.
Variety's projection, as relayed by The Guardian, puts the final worldwide gross at around $50m.
The Guardian says the loss would put Digger among the biggest flops in film history. It names Cutthroat Island and The Marvels as other films on that list. The BBC also says the film could become one of Hollywood's biggest flops.
The Guardian says the outlook is worse than previously thought. The loss figure is an estimate, not a final accounting.
