Tom Cruise likens 'Digger' prosthetic transformation to a ballet

yahoo.com —

Tom Cruise compared his extensive prosthetic transformation for the new film "Digger" to a "ballet," praising the special effects team for reducing the makeup process from six hours to one. Cruise, who plays eccentric oil tycoon Digger Rockwell, described the character as "outrageous and unpredictable" during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show. He joked that the streamlined process felt like Formula 1, with someone holding a stopwatch. The 64-year-old actor called the film a "timeless story about power, greed, and ego" directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu. "Digger" releases in cinemas on October 2, with the interview airing tonight on BBC One.
