Footage of Clint Eastwood's ‘Juror #2' Has “Thrilled" Warner Bros
"if the film is ultimately embraced, that will offer a fitting plot twist considering several studios passed on the low-risk, low-budget film. Even at 93, Eastwood should never be counted out. "
A few months back, THR had reported that Eastwood “wanted to find one last project in order to be able to ride off into the sunset with his head held high.” He found the script for “Juror No. 2” and said this is “the one”. This will probably be the narrative used by Warner Bros. during awards season: “Clint’s final film”.
“Juror No. 2” stars Toni Collette, Nicholas Hoult, Kiefer Sutherland, J.K. Simmons, Zoey Deutch and Chris Messina. The film is “set during a murder trial where one of the jurors slowly realizes he might have killed the victim in a reckless-driving accident and tries to save the defendant without incriminating himself.”
The latest update on the film is that it just wrapped post-production and is ready to go.

I read to live in other people's lives.
I read about the joys, the world
Dispenses to the fortunate,
And listen for the echoes.
I read to live, to get away from life!
There is a flower which offers nectar at the top,
Delicious nectar at the top and bitter poison underneath.
The butterfly that stays too long and drinks too deep
Is doomed to die.
I read to fly, to skim!
I do not read to swim!
