**Weak first-weekend performance and sharp early drops are positioning "Digger" for a modest second-weekend gross in the $3-5 million range.** The Tom Cruise-Alejandro G. Iñárritu R-rated satire opened to just $8 million domestically from 3,321 theaters—its lowest debut in nearly two decades—amid polarizing reviews, a C CinemaScore, and reports of a challenging marketing push for the high-budget original. Monday’s steep 59% plunge from Sunday underscored poor word-of-mouth and limited legs in a marketplace led by "Verity" and holdovers like "Heart of the Beast." With the second weekend approaching amid ongoing competition, trader consensus reflects expectations of continued rapid decline rather than any significant rebound.
