Clint Eastwood's 'Juror No. 2' Faces Limited US Release Despite Critical Acclaim

The 94-year-old director's latest courtroom drama is showing in fewer than 50 theaters in the US, raising questions about Warner Bros.' strategy.

Clint Eastwood's new film 'Juror No. 2' is receiving a limited release in the US, with screenings in less than 50 theaters, despite being well-received by critics.
The film, starring Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette, explores a juror's moral dilemma as he suspects he may be connected to the crime he is judging.
Warner Bros. has not included 'Juror No. 2' in its awards campaign and plans to move the film to streaming soon, a decision that has puzzled industry insiders.
Eastwood's absence from the film's premiere has fueled speculation about his health and strained relations with Warner Bros., though he remains active in considering future projects.
The film's limited release contrasts sharply with Eastwood's long and successful partnership with Warner Bros., which has produced numerous box-office hits over the decades.
