He noted that the world has become increasingly fast-paced, fragmented, and performative, making it difficult for individuals to navigate their own reality. Iñárritu found that humour and separation were key elements in addressing these challenges, which is reflected in the tone of Digger.

Digger will open internationally on September 30, with the North American and IMAX release following on October 2.

HT City reported that Alejandro G. Iñárritu had been working on the story for over a decade, observing the ways in which the world has changed and evolved.
