These are the two stars that Clint Eastwood wants for his latest movie

In March 2023 we learned that the legendary Clint Eastwood he was preparing ‘Juror #2’his 40th film as a director and the one that, with total probability, will put the point and end to an unblemished career. Something that, by the way, can also happen with the French ‘Coup de Chance’, the possible last job of Woody Allen, which has become one of the most anticipated films of 2023.

This way, Eastwood will collaborate again with Warner Bros.a studio to which he has been linked for more than two decades with films like ‘Sully’, ‘Invictus’ and those two jewels called ‘Million Dollar Baby’ and ‘Gran Torino’.

Nor should we forget ‘Cry Macho’, the latest film starring and directed by Eastwood which, despite its interesting premise with a successful road movie tone, sank at the box office and was a headache for the production company.

The legendary Clint Eastwood, who will turn 93 on May 31, is not willing to leave through the back door with a minor work in his filmography and is already preparing ‘Juror #2’, a thriller written by Jonathan Abrams (producer of ‘Escape Plan’) in the vein of some of the veteran director’s latest films, such as ‘Richard Jewell’. In it, a juror in a murder trial realizes that he could have caused the victim’s death by reckless driving, at which point he must grapple with the dilemma of manipulating the jury to save himself or reveal the truth and turn himself in. .

Still in the pre-production phase and without any closed agreement, rumors suggest that Eastwood has submitted a formal offer to Nicholas Houltwhich has just releasedRenfield’, the new madness of Nicolas Cage as Dracula. Hoult would be the main protagonist when interpreting this indecisive member of the jury. For her part, the actress chosen to give life to the prosecutor of the case would be Toni Collette which, after being part of ‘The Staircase’, one of the best suspense and mystery series on HBO Max, we can also see on ‘Mickey 17’the new Bong Joon-Ho with Robert Pattinson at the helm of the cast before becoming Bruce Wayne again in the highly anticipated ‘The Batman 2’.

Will Eastwood’s farewell mean one of the best lawyer and trial movies? Still without a specific release date, we will have the verdict on the last work of the long-lived director throughout 2024, a year marked by major releases such as ‘Avatar 3’, ‘Joker: Folie a Deux’, ‘Furiosa’ and ‘Deadpool’. 3′, among others.
