    LOS ANGELES (AP) --

    Clint Eastwood is getting back in the director's chair.

    The "Unforgiven" and "Gran Torino" filmmaker is set to direct the legal drama "Juror No. 2" for his longtime studio, Warner Bros., a person close to the production who requested anonymity because she wasn't authorized to comment publicly confirmed Friday.

    The film will be Eastwood's first since 2021's neo-Western "Cry Macho," which also marked his return to the screen as an actor. With production on "Juror No. 2" to begin in June, Eastwood will be 93 when he steps on set.

    Nicholas Hoult and Toni Collette are in early talks to potentially star in the film, written by Jonathan Abrams, about a murder trial wherein a juror discovers he may have played a role in the victim's death.

    In an interview in 2014 with The Associated Press, Eastwood, said the reason for his career longevity was that "I never let the old man in."

    "There are so many different stories to tell out there," said Eastwood. "You can be 21 or 81. … If you tell yourself, 'I'm too old to do that' — bulls—. You're not too old to do anything."

    Singer D4vd charged with murder of girl, 14, found dismembered in his car

    Singer D4vd has been charged with murder in the death of a 14-year-old girl whose dismembered and decomposed body was found in September in his apparently abandoned Tesla, prosecutors said. Friday.

    The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said the 21-year-old D4vd, whose legal name is David Burke, was charged with first-degree murder; lewd and lascivious acts with an individual under 14; and mutilating a body in the killing of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. She was reported missing by her family in 2024, when she was 13. Authorities say she was 14 when she died.

    The murder charges included special circumstances — lying in wait, committing crime for financial gain and murdering the witness in an investigation — that could carry the death penalty. Prosecutors haven't announced whether they will seek it.

    Attorneys for the Houston-born alt-pop singer said he was innocent in a statement released after homicide detectives arrested him on Thursday at a home in Hollywood.

    "Let us be clear — the actual evidence in this case will show that David Burke did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez and he was not the cause of her death," the lawyers said.

    The long-dead body of Rivas Hernandez was found inside a Tesla that was towed from the Hollywood Hills on Sept. 8, a day after she would have turned 15. Her family had reported her missing from her hometown of Lake Elsinore, about 70 miles (112 kilometers) southeast of Los Angeles.

    Authorities did not publicly name Burke as a suspect until his arrest. And his lawyers' statement last week, in which said they "will vigorously defend David's innocence," was the first time they weighed in publicly.

    The singer had been under investigation by an LA County grand jury looking into... Read More
