Clint Eastwood might be back as Dirty Harry after all! - Blu-ray Forum

wnicholas76 · 04-21-2008, 08:37 PM

According to IMDB.com, Clint Eastwood might be back reprising his role as "Dirty Harry" Callahan for a next movie entitled "Gran Torino", which is supposed to have a December 2008 release. Clint also plans to direct the movie as well. I don't think that "Gran Torino" is going to be the official title for the next Dirty Harry movie, because Warner Bros. may change it at any time. Also, when I scrolled down to the section called "movie connections", it said that the movie followed "Magnum Force", and I already knew that "Gran Torino" is going to be the long-awaited continuation of the "Dirty Harry" series! I read more about it on another website, and here's the URL:

What do you all think?! Can Clint do it again? I really think he can!

In a wheel chair maybe. I am all for people getting back to their films from way back when, but obviously - hollywood is at a loss here.

Indiana Jones, Rambo and now Clint Eastwood? They are classics yes, but these guys are not getting any younger and some of them are REALLY showing their age. Time to draw the line

Would love to see Clint do something like this again.

Is he going to be a Walmart greeter?

It would be great to see him reprise his role as Dirty Harry but...I'm sure it will be mostly a body double lol.

I heard Clint is consulting with Balco as we speak; says hes gonna "Bulk Up" for this new one giving a new meaning to "Dirty Harry"....

Congrats to ME on my 500th post. Thanks Blu-Ray.com love your show.

Not really possible as a main character. How is he supposed to chase someone? Let's face it the guy is simply too old.

Look at what Hollywood is currently offering. No wonder why these older guys are still reprising roles from 20 years ago.

I love seeing these iconic characters come back for one last film.

Maybe they could do an Axel Foley/Harry Callahan crossover movie...that would be awesome!!!

(not)

But in all seriousness, I will go and see Beverly Hills Cop IV and I will go and see any additions to the Dirty Harry films.

You dont need to run if you got a car and a big gun like Dirty Harry!

hoosier2007 · 04-22-2008, 05:01 PM

Im sure He will just do just fine.
If Sly can pulled Rocky why not Clint?

Clint Eastwood is one of my top favorite actors ever. The man is 77 and can still kick ass.
