The US actor and director Clint Eastwood is apparently working on a new film project.
This was reported by the specialist magazines "Deadline" and "Variety".
According to "Deadline", the 90-year-old is currently looking for suitable locations for the film "Cry Macho", in which he will both direct and act.
The planned theatrical release is therefore still unclear.
"Cry Macho" is based on the book of the same name by N. Richard Nash from the 1970s.
Nash wrote the screenplay with Nick Schenk, with whom Eastwood worked on the production of the films "Gran Torino" (2008) and "The Mule" (2018).
The book is about a former rodeo star and horse breeder who embarks on the dangerous job of kidnapping the son of his ex-boss in Mexico and bringing him across the US border.
Eastwood rose to fame as a western and action actor before working as a director as well.
In 1993 he received the Oscar for best director and best film for his western "Merciless".
He took these two prizes in 2005 with the boxing drama "Million Dollar Baby".
