The film The Mule, directed and starred by the 90-year-old Clint Eastwood, has recently exposed stills and trailers. In the stills, Eastwood's eyes were filled with tears, thoughtful. Judging from the stills, the actor, who is called a living fossil in Hollywood, has wrinkles that are as eye-catching as a knife.
Foreign media speculated that the film may maximize Eastwood's personal charm. Eastwood will play a former rodeo star and horse breeder in the film. He got a job from his former boss in 1978 and will take the former boss’s young son home away from the boy’s alcoholic mother. . Two seemingly unlikely people traveled through the Mexican countryside and embarked on a challenging journey back to Texas. In the meantime, the jockey who is tired of the world may also find his own salvation in the process of teaching this boy what it means to be a good man. This is also the first time Eastwood has returned to the position of director and starring role after Mule.
Preparations for the film will begin in October 2020, and shooting will be completed in 2021. In fact, The Mule is not a brand new film. The original script of the film was written in the 1970s. It was written by N. Richard Nash, and the film was called Tough Guy (Macho) at the time. It's just that, in the 1970s, no one paid attention to the rapid progress of Hollywood. In 2019, there was a production company hoping to put the film on the screen, and the lead actor confirmed at that time was Arnold Schwarzenegger. Subsequently, the epidemic hit, and the film was shelved. In the end, Eastwood got the right to film the film. According to the plan, the film will be screened simultaneously in theaters and streaming media. The premiere will be held in theaters and will be launched on HBO Max on September 17.
