Hello everybody,
When reading an interesting article about the making of Richard Jewell, I learned that Clint is planning to shoot his next picture in Hawaii, in the end of next spring. Nothing was revealed about that project.
That article was published in Transfuge magazine, issue 136, February 2020, which is a French magazine on litterature, music, movies, art.
Jean-Paul Chaillet, a French reporter specialized in movies, spent a couple days on Richard Jewell movie set.
He visited many Clint Eastwood movies sets in the past.

The Hawai project was Clint's previous project before he changed his mind because he had the opportunity to shoot "Richard Jewell". Nothing can confirm that he kept that project in mind . I have found only one source about this, but this is a good one (a Tim Moore interview) . Producer Tim Moore says: "I was scouting for another project in Hawaii and when I got home, Clint said, 'You better take off your Hawaiian shirt, we're going to Atlanta to shoot the story of Richard Jewell, now is the time to do it. You have to tell this story. "And without transition, we ended up in Atlanta to prepare for the shooting."

Wasn’t there a nuclear bomb scare in Hawaii a few years back? Everyone got a text message that one of the islands was going to be hit in less than ten minutes.

Maybe that’s Clint’s next film?

I don't think you have enough material to make a good movie with this.
By the way, on the subject of nuclear bomb crazyness, we've already had two masterpieces:Sidney Lumet's Fail-safe and Kubrick's How I learned to love the bomb..  :D
I hope it's not his next movie because we saw the result of poor material with 15:17 to Paris...  :(

I agree, but that's never really stopped Clint before! "Sully," "15:17 to Paris" and "Richard Jewell" didn't really have enough plot to justify an entire movie either, and he still made those! I do think that "Sully" and "Richard Jewell" were much better than "15:17 to Paris," but plot-heavy movies they were not.

I agree that this Hawaii bomb scare is very unlikely to be the focus of Clint's next project though.

"Hawaii Nine-O"?

(I wrote that in jest, alluding to his age, but it turns out that title was really used ... for a series of surfing videos from the '90s! :D)

          Personally I'm hoping Eastwood doesn't do another movie for a few years and ultimately does a movie with an edge...I was hoping He would had bought the rights to Davd Grann's book 'Killers Of The Flower Moon' which is based on the Osage murders that took place in the 1920's. It was a gripping historical story, but it looks like Scorsese is doing the movie.

Yes, Martin Scorsese is planning to do ‘Killers Of The Flower Moon’ with Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro.
John Edgar Hoover will be one of the main characters but I don’t know if DiCaprio will embody him again.

About Clint Eastwood, I’ll always be enthusiastic with a new movie project.
Of course, I would like to see him as an actor again.
I hope that he will return to fictional stories. But it’s up to him.
Anyway, I’m still curious about his projects. He did so many great movies.

Perry, I don’t think that Clint is able to wait for some years before making an other movie.
In fact, he is a workaholic. But I absolutely agree with you about the fact that Clint should do a movie with an edge.

I agree that it would be nice to see something different from Clint which did have more of an edge, but he's 90 years old! He doesn't have a few years to wait before doing his next film! :)

Actually, we hope he DOES have a few more years, or more if he wants, but we also hope he won't wait that long. Just in case. ;)

      Well obviously Eastwood's age could play a factor in his future in doing movies...I'm aware of that. Also you have to consider the fact that since Million Dollar Baby only 4 or maybe 5 of his 14 or 15 movies he's made since then have been box office hits. Some movie studios might shy away from that as well. Eastwood might even go the route Scorsese did for cable with The Irishman. Who knows. 

Hard to believe this is my 1000th post. I thought I would had been thrown out of this website years ago.......

Congratulations for your 1000th post, Perry ! :)

Yes, after Million Dollar Baby, some Clint Eastwood movies were box office hits in America:
Gran Torino, American Sniper, Sully and The Mule.

Even if everything is possible, I don’t think that Clint would go to Netflix or Amazon in order to make a movie.
He’s part of Warner Bros’ history for a long time now.
So, I think that Warner Bros will support Clint projects, like WB supported Stanley Kubrick projects.
Christopher Nolan has that type of partnership with WB but he seems to be more blockbusters oriented.

Congrats Perry. No one is going to throw you off of the site. That's just silly. I may not always agree with you, but I always appreciate your honesty and anticipate what you might say with interest.

I agree that it's unlikely Clint would go to Netflix. I think he's a traditionalist. He also doesn't seem to be particularly tech savvy, unless the technology can be used in moviemaking, like the use of IMAX cameras or the handheld cameras he uses while directing. I'd be surprised to see him go to a streaming platform, but I wouldn't have guessed Scorsese would either! I think Eastwood has made enough money for Warners that they'll likely keep financing his projects, since what might become a hit for Clint is kind of unpredictable, and his movies don't cost that much to make relative to other filmmakers

On Instagram, I asked Steve Campanelli whether we see another Clint Eastwood picture soon or not. and he replied: 'Not until the end of the year.'

 so, I guess that is a YES.
