EW has a feature on this, which includes a couple production photos, which confirms the Sep 17 release date. With this publicity starting for the film, we should see the trailer soon, perhaps tomorrow, or next week.  No matter what age he is, Clint Eastwood will always be a cowboy at heart.
The 91-year-old actor is back in the saddle for his upcoming movie Cry Macho, a Western drama set in 1979. Along with producing and directing the film, Eastwood stars as Mike Milo, a one-time rodeo star and washed-up horse breeder who takes a job from an ex-boss to bring the man's young son home from Mexico. Forced to take the backroads on their way to Texas, the unlikely pair face an unexpectedly challenging journey, during which the world-weary horseman finds unexpected connections and his own sense of redemption.
"It's about a man who has been through some hard times in his life and then unexpectedly another challenge is brought to the foreground," Eastwood tells EW. "He would normally never do it but he is a man of his word. He follows through. And it starts his life over again."
EW has your first look at the "uplifting and poignant drama" that finds Eastwood back in front of the camera only three years after starring in The Mule. But what's more surprising is how it looks like his character is going to make friends with a pet rooster along his journey...

People magazine also has a feature, with some different production photos. 
Clint Eastwood is getting back on the horse.
In a PEOPLE exclusive first look at Cry Macho, directed and produced by the Oscar-winner, the multi-hyphenate Hollywood icon returns to his Western movie roots in a touching new drama.
The 91-year-old star appears at ease in boots, a cowboy hat, a coat and jeans as he plays Mike Milo, a one-time rodeo star who takes a job from an ex-boss to bring the man's young son, Rafo (Eduardo Minett), home from Mexico.
Forced to take the backroads on their way to Texas, the older man and young boy find unexpected bonds between them.
The movie, as Eastwood tells PEOPLE, has been 40 years in the making.
"[Producer] Al Ruddy asked me if I would do it and I felt I was too young for the part," says Eastwood. "I thought I might direct it then but it went by the wayside. Then, about a year ago, we brought it back out and feels like I'm just at the right age now and I thought it'd be fun to do..."
