Following last year’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, all eyes turn to Tom Cruise’s next starring vehicle, Digger. With the previous film failing to find box office success, attention now shifts to what this upcoming release must achieve to surpass the lowest-grossing installment in the Mission: Impossible franchise. The numbers reveal the target.
Which is the lowest-grossing MI movie at the box office in North America?

It also holds the distinction of being the lowest-grossing film globally within the entire franchise.

How much does Digger need to beat the lowest-grossing Mission: Impossible movie domestically?
Digger will need solid performances to eclipse the domestic total set by the lowest-performing movie in the Mission: Impossible series. Specifically, the upcoming Tom Cruise project must pull in more than the $134.03 million domestic gross achieved by Mission: Impossible III. Current projections place the film on course for an estimated $15 million opening weekend domestically.
Such a start represents a sluggish beginning for a picture carrying an estimated $125 million budget. Consequently, robust legs will be necessary to overcome MI3. Pre-sales for the feature have likewise proven quite lackluster, meaning the movie will rely heavily on strong word of mouth to sustain its theatrical run.
What is the film about?
The narrative centers on the world’s most powerful man as he rushes to establish himself as humanity’s savior before a catastrophe of his own making obliterates everything. Warner Bros. Pictures is scheduled to release the Tom Cruise starrer Digger on October 2.
