BURBANK, CALIF. July 12 (UPI) -- Warner Bros. released a new trailer for Digger on Monday. As Digger Rockwell, Cruise sports gray hair, a pot belly and a wild cowboy wardrobe.
On Thursday at the Warner Bros. studio lot in Burbank, Calif., Cruise compared creating his latest character to some of his earliest and most classic roles.
"Whether it's Les Grossman or Interview with the Vampire, Collateral or Risky Business, I'm always asking, 'How do I communicate this?'" Cruise, 64, said. "The physicality, the makeup, that is stuff that you find as you are learning how to communicate."
The trailer shows tycoon Digger chastising a technician reporting a crisis at his Arctic station, smooth-talking the President of the United States (John Goodman) and nursing his ailing cat. Cruise described such character nuances as music.
