On cusp of merger, 'Digger bombs for Warner Bros., 'Verity' takes No. 1 at box office
Two movies opened at the box office this weekend: "Verity," a thriller based on a Colleen Hoover novel from Amazon MGM Studios, and "Digger," a Warner Bros. film starring Tom Cruise. "Verity" earned $4.5 million in previews and took the number-one spot, while "Digger" opened with just over $1 million, marking one of Cruise's weakest debuts. The "Digger" underperformance comes as Warner Bros. prepares to merge with Paramount.
