Default Eastwood's next movie: Sullenberger

Warner Bros. has just announced Clint Eastwood's next movie project will be the story of the Miracle on the Hudson and the pilots behind it, in particular CA Sully Sullenberger.

His last movie, American Sniper, was a worldwide runaway box-office smash hit and the highest grossing film of 2014.

They better use mainline actors, anyone else would be a threat to the safety of this film being a box office hit.

Clint can star in it himself. He has airline experience...

I don't get how they can make a 3 minute flight into a movie. I read his book, good but not all that exciting.

Even better, his response: "Get down!!"

During the Gulf War, I was a Captain. As a ritual before each mission, my EWO (backseater) would say to me as we approached the Crew Chief "Excuse me Captain; can you fly this plane?"

In my best Clint imitation, I always replied "No....never had a lesson!"

If Clint does star in it, good thing the Airbus doesn't make you think in Russian.

He's probably a little rusty.
