It makes sense that Eastwood would want to sit back and focus on his directing craft in his later years, and leaving the onscreen glitz and glam to other actors.
Clint Eastwood has been busy at work directing film after film at quite the impressive rate, including both Jersey Boys and American Sniper in 2014, 2016’s Sully and The 15:17 to Paris earlier this year.
Then again, he has never waited too long before coming back to his roots in acting.
However, he hasn’t been seen onscreen since 2012’s Trouble with the Curve.
