Clint Eastwood showed he’s not ready to slow down yet when he was spotted filming his upcoming film “Juror No. 2” on Tuesday in Savannah, Georgia. According to the Daily Mail, which provides us with pictures from the actors on set, the project has been called the moviemaker’s ‘final film,’ with The Hollywood Reporter describing it as an attempt to find ‘one last project in order to be able to ride off into the sunset with his head held high,’ though neither Eastwood nor Juror No. 2’s studio Warner Bros. have said he is planning to retire after completing it. Eastwood was previously seen on set with Nicholas Hoult in June, after the writer’s strike had started but just before his cast had to stop working due to the recently wrapped actor’s strike. Hoult plays a juror sitting for a murder trial who realizes he may be the one who killed the victim during a reckless driving incident, rather than the person on trial. As his guilt eats away at him, he tries to steer his fellow jury members away from convicting the man while attempting not to incriminate himself in front of the prosecutor, played by Toni Collette. “Juror No. 2”, which will be Eastwood’s 40th film as director, is scheduled to be released next year.

“United States of Tara” remains one of Toni’s greatest projects and – altough it was cancelled too soon – includes three pitch-perfect seasons. Time to upgrade the galleries for the Shwotime series. All production stills have been sorted in order of the episodes and over 50 additional production stills have been added as well, alongside some new on-set pictures and key art. If you’re planning on rewatching Tara (it’s available on a variety of streaming platforms, depending on where you live) or want to revisit your favorite episode, check out the site’s episode guide for all three seasons with synopsis, screencaptures and recaps. Updates on season 2 will follow next week.

Here comes another great addition to Toni’s theatre archives: The poster and programme for The Sydney Theatre Company’s 1990 production of “A Little Night Music”, alongside a new production still with Toni and Michael Beckley, all courtesy the actor’s website. As many earlier sources, the programme’s CV states an appearance by Toni on the Australian series “G.P.”, although I’ve never been able to track any more information on this. Additionally, there’s an audio clip on Youtube of Toni singing “The Miller’s Son” in the musical. Enjoy.

With still nothing happening right now, it takes some digging to find news on Toni’s upcoming projects. Among them is Bong Joon-ho’s “Mickey 17”, which is slated for a theatrical release next year, but has already received a test screening this past June, according to WorldofReel. Since test screenings or reactions are rarely officially confirmed, we should take this summary with a grain of salt:

Perfectly conveys the mood and directorial ticks of all his previous films; it’s funny but also cleverly political and though action and adventure take a back seat it’s always doing something sharp and thrilling. Robert Pattinson is wonderfully unhinged in twin roles, very reminiscent of the performances in Fight Club, Mark Ruffalo is delivering a very Trump-ian performance that akin to Tilda Swinton in Snowpiercer and if that’s not enough Toni Colette is just as evil and always in his ear. The production is stunning, big sets and practical effects with very minimal CGI work and the cinematography here is like super close to so much of David Finchers work, so stunning and very much a likely contender for a nomination. It was quite an experience. The introducer emphasized how early it was in the process with very minimally done but 75% was pretty much polished and ready to go with just a score and sound design missing. So much of it was clearly practical.

The article goes on to predict the film’s release date to move to an earlier date, in order to receive a splashy premiere at next year’s Cannes Film Festival, where Joon-ho’s last film, “Parasite”, won the Palme d’Or.

With not much happening right now, I went through the archives and dug up a couple of production stills from Toni’s feature film and television work that haven’t been added to the gallery. For a complete overview, have a look at the list below. Enjoy the new addtions.

The London Australian Film Festival marks the 25th anniversary of “The Boys”, a powerfully tense examination of suburban masculinity rarely seen on UK screens since its original release in 1998. Out on parole after serving a sentence for assault, the malevolent Brett Sprague (David Wenham) returns to his family home, and his mother (Lynette Curran), two brothers (John Polson and Anthony Hayes) and estranged girlfriend (Toni Collette). As Brett strives to reassert his violent dominance over those around him, a barely contained malice soon turns to violence, and ultimately leads to an ominous conclusion that still feels frighteningly relevant to contemporary Australia. This searing adaptation of Gordon Graham’s notoriously successful play, itself inspired by the infamous 1986 murder of Anita Cobby, is shot, directed and performed with startling precision. The result is perhaps the most ruthless exposé of suburban misogyny in all Australian cinema. Stephen (LAFF Co-Programmer): “Anchored around David Wenham’s most menacing performance, “The Boys” is horrifyingly naturalistic, and almost unbearably tense. One the finest cinematic examinations of Australian masculinity, and a truly remarkable film that demands to be seen on the big screen!” No words about any of the actors attending or Q&As.
