Clint Eastwood wants filmmakers to be original
Hollywood star Clint Eastwood urged fellow filmmakers to come up with new ideas as he approached his 95th birthday this weekend. Oscar-winning director Eastwood told Austrian newspaper Kurier he planned to keep working, saying that he was still in good physical shape and hopeful that no one would have to worry about him in that regard "for a long time yet." Eastwood's most recent film, legal drama Juror #2, came out in the United States last year and the newspaper said he was currently in the pre-production phase for another film. When asked for his view on the current state of the film industry, the star of films such as The Good, The Bad and The Ugly and Dirty Harry, and director of dozens of films including Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby, said, "I long for the good old days when screenwriters wrote movies like Casablanca in small bungalows on the studio lot. When everyone had a new idea." "We live in an era of remakes and franchises. I've shot sequels three times, but I haven't been interested in that for a long while. My philosophy is: do something new or stay at home," added Eastwood, who turned 95 on Saturday. Asked where he got his energy from, Eastwood said, "There's no reason why a man can't get better with age. And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I'm not one of them." Eastwood also shared the secret to his success. "As an actor, I was still under contract with a studio, was in the old system, and thus forced to learn something new every year," he said. "And that's why I'll work as long as I can still learn something, or until I'm truly senile." Reuters

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.

Secret of Clint Eastwood's success: do something new
Hollywood star Clint Eastwood urged fellow filmmakers to come up with new ideas as he approaches his 95th birthday this weekend, observing in a newspaper interview that the movie business is now full of remakes and franchises. Oscar-winning director Eastwood told Austrian newspaper Kurier he planned to keep working, saying that he was still in good physical shape and hopeful that no one would have to worry about him in that regard "for a long time yet". Eastwood's most recent film, legal drama Juror#2, came out in the United States in 2024 and the newspaper said he was currently in the pre-production phase for another movie. The star of movies such as Dirty Harry and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, and director of dozens of films including Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby, was asked for his view on the current state of the film industry, "I long for the good old days when screenwriters wrote movies like Casablanca in small bungalows on the studio lot.

Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I'm not one of them." Eastwood, who made World War II thriller Where Eagles Dare in Austria with Welsh actor Richard Burton in the late 1960s, told the paper the secret to his success was that he had always tried something new as a director and an actor. "As an actor, I was still under contract with a studio, was in the old system, and thus forced to learn something new every year," he said.
