In an interview with the Austrian newspaper Kurier, Eastwood hints that he has a new film in the making but does not reveal what it is about.

I don't understand why you can't get better with age. I have much more experience today. Of course, there are directors who lose their grip at a certain age, but I am not one of them, he says in the interview.

According to rumors, his latest film "Juror #2", which is his 40th, would also be his last. But Clint Eastwood says he will continue working until he becomes "really senile" - and takes the opportunity to give a dig to the film industry as it looks today:

We live in an era of remakes and franchises. My philosophy is: do something new or stay home.
