Clint Eastwood’s ‘Hereafter’ – Movie Preview
Hereafter is a film by Clint Eastwood from a screenplay by Peter Morgan. The film tells three parallel stories about three people affected by death in different ways; Matt Damon plays American factory worker George, who is somehow able to communicate with the dead; Cécile de France plays French television journalist Marie, who survives a tsunami; and Frankie and George McLaren play Marcus and Jason, an English boy and his brother who is killed in a car accident. At the denouement, all three stories and characters converge. Bryce Dallas Howard, Lyndsey Marshal, Jay Mohr and Thierry Neuvic have supporting roles.
Peter Morgan sold the script on spec to DreamWorks in 2008, but it transferred to Warner Bros by the time Clint Eastwood had signed on to direct in 2009. It was shot from October 2009 to February 2010 on locations in London, San Francisco, Paris, and Hawaii. The film will premiere in September 2010 as a Special Presentation at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival, before going on wide release in North America on October 22, 2010, distributed by Warner Bros.
