Clint Eastwood Has Found His Next Movie
Yara Sameh There's just no stopping Clint Eastwood. The acclaimed actor and director has confirmed that he's already working on another movie, after keeping audiences on the edge of their seats with "Juror No. 2". While it's true that Eastwood will be celebrating his ninety-fifth birthday this year, the director looks very eager to continue his trajectory as one of the biggest icons in the history of cinema. Eastwood sounded very confident when talking about his health to Kurier, but the icon refused to give any details surrounding the premise of his next endeavor. Time will tell what Clint Eastwood is baking in the oven right now. The last time audiences got to enjoy the magic of Clint Eastwood's talent on the big screen was last year when Juror #2 depicted a man ridden with guilt during a murder trial. Justin Kempt (Nicholas Hoult) was called up for jury duty. The character was surprised when, while listening to the details of the murder case, he realized he might have been involved in the victim's death. Toni Collette and J.K. Simmons also starred in this legal thriller that earned more than $24 million at the global box office. Before the devastating story of Justin Kemp reached the big screen, Clint Eastwood had been working on Cry Macho and Richard Jewell. Warner Bros. has been the studio to produce the legendary artist's recent directorial efforts. The company has been working alongside Clint Eastwood for years, giving the director a blank canvas to develop the acclaimed stories he has put out throughout the latest stage of his career. It remains to be seen if Warner Bros. will also produce Eastwood's next project. Clint Eastwood's next movie will mark the next step in an unrivaled trajectory in the entertainment industry. Thanks to stories such as "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" and "The Beguiled", Eastwood became one of the most recognizable people in the history of cinema. Regardless of what his next movie ends up dealing with, the prolific star has consolidated his name thanks to his unforgettable performances and ka een eye for storytelling. A release date for Clint Eastwood's next movie hasn't been announced yet. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan
