‘Juror No. 2’ Could Be Clint Eastwood’s Last Film — So Why Is Warner Bros. Burying It?


'Juror #2' may mark the 94-year-old Clint Eastwood's final film. Why is Warner Bros. releasing it to fewer than 50 theaters?

AFI Fest, the longest-running film festival in Los Angeles, will cap off its 38th edition Sunday evening with the world premiere of Clint Eastwood ‘s “ Juror #2 ” at the historic TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Some noted that the release meant that “Young Woman and the Sea” had fulfilled the Academy qualifications to be considered for Oscar nominations, but that seems incidental given the film hasn’t received the promotional push required for a serious awards contender. Nonetheless, Eastwood was back in Warner Bros.’ good graces by April 2023, when the studio greenlit “Juror #2” under the leadership of Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy, who were tapped to lead the WB film division in the summer prior.
