The updated runtime of the Digger movie is not what Tom Cruise fans expected. Earlier, it was announced that Digger would mark a milestone for Cruise, as one of the longest movies of his career. However, a new runtime has been added for the satirical black comedy movie
According to AMC Theatres, Digger will run for 2 Hours and 8 Minutes. This is a lot shorter than the previously reported runtime of 2 hours and 40 minutes. That said, it is noteworthy that the runtime can change until its theatrical release in October this year
Nevertheless, Digger won’t be part of Cruise’s longest-running movies; he has acted in the ones that run past the expected 2-hour-40-minute mark. These include Magnolia, with a runtime of 3 hours and 8 minutes, and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, which lasts for 2 hours and 50 minutes
