He recently directed and produced the upcoming film “Juror No. 2,” featuring Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette. The film tells the story of a family man who grapples with a profound moral quandary while serving on a jury for a notorious murder case.
The man’s decision could sway the jury’s verdict and determine the fate of the accused, posing a significant ethical dilemma with far-reaching consequences. This thriller movie, which commenced filming in June 2023 in Savannah, Georgia, is anticipated to be Eastwood’s final project.
Even in his older years, Eastwood was seen fully invested while shooting, “Juror No. 2.” The producer actively directed his crew during setup on scene.
His fascination was also evident as he reviewed footage alongside his longtime camera operator, Stephen Campanelli, a collaboration that began on the set of the 1995 romantic film, “The Bridges Of Madison County.”
After filming “Juror No. 2,” Eastwood, who is now in his 90s and has done many things he loves, steered away from the public eye. Still, his rare sightings have fans worried about his health and well-being.
