Clint Eastwood, 93, finishes rumored FINAL film Juror No. 2 starring Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette... and studio is 'thrilled' with footage

Clint Eastwood has just completed Juror No. 2, which is rumored to be the final movie the legendary filmmaker will direct.

The 93-year-old - who was seen looking frail last month - cast Nicholas Hoult as a man who comes to a chilling realization while sitting on a jury.

Gradually, it dawns on the character that he may have been culpable in the car accident that killed the person whose homicide is being tried.

He finds himself in the nail-biting position of having to decide whether to keep his own name clear or help the innocent defendant get acquitted.

Postproduction has now wrapped on the movie, and sources told Variety that its studio, Warner Bros, is 'thrilled' by the footage it has been shown.

The movie had a tumultuous road to completion, as the shoot had to be stopped for months last year because of the Hollywood strikes.

Furthermore, a number of studios reportedly rejected the project before Clint was able to find it a home at Warner Bros. 

As postproduction concluded on Juror No. 2, Taxi Driver writer Paul Schrader quipped: 'Eastwood is the great-grandfather of the geriatric generation.'

However he noted that the acclaimed Portuguese director Manoel de Oliveira 'worked till he was 104. So Clint still has a ways to go to catch him.'

News of Juror No. 2 first surfaced in a March 2023 report by Discussing Film, which claimed Clint hoped to retire from showbiz after the project.

Last month, DailyMail.com obtained footage of Clint appearing aged and worn - but still full of joie de vivre - in Carmel-by-the-Sea.

The Hollywood icon, who was briefly the mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea in the 1980s, was attending a 90th birthday event for famed primatologist Jane Goodall.
