- Sam Neill passed away at 78, concluding a distinguished acting career spanning more than 60 years.
- Figures like Nicole Kidman and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese praised his artistic impact and personal warmth.
- He played a key role in elevating New Zealand’s film industry onto the international stage.
- Peers remembered him as a witty, kind, and inspiring individual deeply missed by the global community.

For more than fifty years he took New Zealand stories to the world and his talents helped make our film industry into what it is today – one of our greatest cultural exports," Luxon said. "His work will be watched and loved long after all of us. Our thoughts are with his family and friends tonight. Rest in Peace."— Christopher Luxon, Prime Minister of New Zealand, said this in tribute to Sam Neill; he highlighted Neill's role in bringing New Zealand stories to the world and shaping the national film industry.

- The 'Digger' trailer showcases Tom Cruise heavily transformed into Mr. Rockwell, a wealthy oil baron with prosthetics and a Southern accent.
- The plot centers on an ecological disaster triggered by Cruise’s character, who is both the cause and the potential savior.
- John Goodman portrays the U.S. president leading a crisis meeting that frames the conflict as a war against nature itself.
- Unsettling imagery, including a cat with a fake eye, and multiple intense scenes hint at strong Oscar potential for the cast.
Is that all the bad fucking news,— John Goodman’s portrayal of the President in the Digger trailer (quoted in the article).
