Clint Eastwood Plans to Direct New Movie at 95, Shades ‘Era of Remakes and Franchises’: ‘Do Something New or Stay at Home’


Clint Eastwood says Hollywood is stuck in an 'era of remakes and franchises' and tells directors to 'do something new or stay at home.'

In a recent sitdown with Austria-based publication Kurier (via Reuters), Eastwood, who turns 95 on Saturday, shared that he is currently in pre-production for his next film. When asked about the current state of film, the “Unforgiven” director said he missed the days when theaters weren’t overbooked with remakes, sequels and adaptations of existing IP. Eastwood went on to say that his upbringing in the “old system” of Hollywood forced him to constantly evolve as an artist and be vigilant for the next great movie idea.
