Clint Eastwood is one of the leading pioneers of actors and filmmakers who popularized the Western genre and elevated it during his prime. The actor’s collaborations with Sergio Leone on the Dollars trilogy changed Westerns forever. Eastwood carried on the legacy of those who came before him and elevated the genre by taking it into unexplored territory with many of his Westerns.

The Outlaw Josey Wales, High Plains Drifter, Pale Rider, and Unforgiven were four of the Westerns masterpieces Eastwood made. While the genre has not had the level of popularity it did back then, Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone reinvigorated the genre with a fresh and intimate familial story. While Sheridan certainly took inspiration from Eastwood, he did not want to copy one trait of his films.

Nicholas was one of the actors who was reportedly in the running for the titular role, instead, Gunn — the co-chief of DC Studios and the writer-director of the film — picked Nicholas to play Luthor, the industry titan with a bald head and an abiding fixation on bringing down the Last Son of Krypton, reports Variety.

Film and TV cameras are finally set to roll again as SAG-AFTRA and AMPTP have reached a tentative agreement. The strike is officially over at 12:01 Am tonight, ending a six-month production pause due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA work stoppages, which eclipsed the length of the Covid-related production shutdown of 2020.
Production on returning series is now set to ramp up. Broadcast is expected to lead the way — with series going into full prep immediately — as the urgency there is the greatest.

Indeed, just minutes after the end of the strike was announced, casts and crews started receiving notifications for tentative start dates in late November and early December.
As Deadline has reported, the broadcast networks have been running out of time to produce meaningful seasons of scripted series, which have midseason premiere dates to hit.

Clint Eastwood is turning 93 this year, but the four-time Oscar winner isn’t slowing down. The “Unforgiven” and “Million Dollar Baby” director has set his 40th feature film, “Juror #2,” IndieWire has confirmed.
Warner Bros., which has distributed all of Eastwood’s films since 2008’s “Gran Torino,” will re-team with the director for the thriller, a source confirmed to IndieWire. In addition, a source confirmed that offers have been sent to Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette to star in the picture, though neither deal is final.
Set in the courtroom of a murder trial, “Juror #2” focuses on one of the jurors as he realizes during the case that he killed the victim in a driving accident, and desperately attempts to get the defendant off without going to jail himself. Deadline reports that should they be cast, Hoult would play the juror, while Collette will play prosecuting attorney in the trial.
