What’s Happening:
These days, we don’t have too many manly role models coming out of Hollywood. Long gone are days when moviegoers could respect the men who starred in rugged, heroic pics. But there is one man who continues to be an icon of not only manliness, but traditional American values, Clint Eastwood.
Eastwood is one of a precious few Hollywood legends who are openly conservative. Most actors are too scared to admit they are Republican; the rest are mindless Democrats. But Eastwood just made an announcement that has stunned the liberal elite. He is finally hanging up his hat.
From Not the Bee:
Say farewell to one of the best to ever do it.
The 92-year-old Hollywood legend is hanging it up after decades in showbusiness, announcing that he is making his final Warner Brothers movie before riding off into the sunset…
Sources told DiscussingFilm that Eastwood is currently working on what will be his last movie, with the project reportedly being a thriller titled Juror #2. The movie tells the story of a juror on a murder trial who realizes that he may be responsible for the death of the victim. He then has to decide if he wants to come clean and turn himself in, or manipulate the jury to save himself.
Clint Eastwood, who has stunned audiences as both an actor and director, announced he is making his final film. The 92-year-old legend will retire after finishing his current project Juror #2. This film appears to be another powerful drama. The iconic creator is set to leave Hollywood with a bang.
Eastwood is best known for his work in Westerns. The tall, slim actor defined the strong, but silent cowboy. He revolutionized the genre, just when critics said the Western was dead. And after wowing audiences in front of the camera, he had a long career behind the camera.
But despite his legendary status, Eastwood has never shied away from speaking his mind. He is known for his conservative views, even appearing at Republican conventions. This never seemed to diminish his star power, though, as no liberal in Hollywood would dare challenge him.
His departure from filmmaking marks the end of an era. Who will take up the mantle after Eastwood is gone? Who will become this generation’s strong, rugged, uncompromising patriot in La La Land?
Nobody comes to mind. And there might not be one.
Key Takeaways:
- Clint Eastwood announced his retirement from filmmaking, at 92.
- His current project is set to be his final film.
- Eastwood is a legendary actor and noted Republican supporter.
