Bradley Cooper joins Clint Eastwood in The Mule
Variety reports that Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper (American Sniper, American Hustle, Silver Linings Playbook) may be reuniting with Oscar winner Clint Eastwood (Letters from Iwo Jima, Million Dollar Baby, Mystic River) on The Mule, the drama Eastwood is directing and will also star in.
The Mule follows 90-year-old drug courier Leo Sharp, an award-winning horticulturist and decorated WWII veteran known for his prized daylilies and who is busted for running drugs from Mexica’s Sinaloa Cartel, and sent to prison. He was transporting $3 million worth of cocaine through Michigan in his beat-up pickup truck when he was arrested by the DEA. Sharp was sentenced to just three years in jail after his lawyer argued that his client’s dementia sent him down the wrong path.
Cooper will be playing the DEA agent who arrests Sharp. This movie would mark Eastwood’s first acting role since 2012’s Trouble with the Curve.
Warner Bros. and Imperative Entertainment are co-producing the film, with Eastwood set to produce via his Malpaso banner along with Imperative’s Dan Friedkin and Bradley Thomas. The Mule would serve as a reunion for Cooper and Eastwood, who worked together on American Sniper.
