Tom Cruise hosts ‘Digger’ London premiere with Prince William and Princess Kate

The world premiere of the film ‘Digger’ took place at Leicester Square in London, serving as the annual Royal Film Performance to benefit The Film and TV Charity. The event featured a high-profile appearance by Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales, who joined Hollywood star Tom Cruise and director Alejandro González Iñárritu on the red carpet.

Princess Kate drew significant attention for her fashion choices, wearing a deep purple Jenny Packham gown paired with the Queen Mother’s Amethyst Sautoir Necklace and pearl earrings previously owned by Princess Diana. Tom Cruise, who shares an interest in aviation with Prince William, greeted the royal couple warmly.

Directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu, ‘Digger’ is a satirical black comedy starring Cruise as an oil tycoon attempting to avert a global environmental catastrophe. Early critical reception for the film has been polarized, with some praising Cruise’s performance and the film’s visual ambition, while others have criticized its structure and tone.
