Bryce Dallas Howard has signed on to Clint Eastwood’s next film, Hereafter, a supernatural drama about three separate people affected by death in different ways. Matt Damon is already on board and filming is underway.
The announcement isn’t clear which role she’ll be playing, but Ron Howard’s daughter is most likely filling the part of Melanie, a love interest to Damon’s character, a factory worker and psychic who can communicate with the dead.
Steven Spielberg, Frank Marshall, and Peter Morgan are executive producing. Cecile De France and Lyndsey Marshal also star. What, no room for Clint’s son this time?
Eastwood is a hit or miss director. 2004’s Million Dollar Baby seemed to be the peak of the acting legend’s second career. Each of his films have rare moments of greatness, but there’s not much of a unique style there aside from pulling memorable performances from the cast. Gran Torino and especially Invictus are examples of how he’s trailed off into the so-so side of his filmography.
This one is scheduled for December 2010, which means Eastwood’s name will come up yet again for awards consideration before ultimately being “snubbed” in the nominations. I might care if I hadn’t already seen The Sixth Sense.
