After decades of establishing himself as a next-level action star, Tom Cruise comes back to character work with Alejandro Iñárritu’s off-kilter comedy Digger.

This also includes his incredibly rare venture into horror with Interview with the Vampire from Neil Jordan, which also stars Brad Pitt, Christian Slater, Kirsten Dunst and Antonio Banderas.
