About Movie:
In April 2023, it was announced that Clint Eastwood would direct his next film, with Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette in talks to star. The casting was confirmed the following month, alongside Zoey Deutch and Kiefer Sutherland, with Gabriel Basso also in negotiations for a role.
For Collette and Hoult, the film marks a reunion 22 years after their roles as mother and son in About a Boy (2002). For Deutch and Hoult, it marks their second collaboration following Rebel in the Rye (2017).
Filming began in June 2023, with Eastwood, at 93 years old, directing scenes in Savannah, Georgia, and Los Angeles. Production was paused in July due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike but resumed in November after the strike ended. Post-production concluded by April 2024, with Mark Mancina composing the score, having previously worked with Eastwood on Cry Macho (2021).
Juror #2 premiered as the closing film at the 38th AFI Fest on October 27, 2024. This continues Eastwood’s longstanding connection with the American Film Institute, which previously hosted world premieres of American Sniper (2014), J. Edgar (2011), and Richard Jewell (2019).
Initially planned for a direct-to-streaming release on Max, Warner Bros. opted for a limited theatrical release of Juror #2 on November 1, 2024. The film received a wide release in the UK, showing in over 300 cinemas.
