Clint Eastwood & Matt Damon ‘Hereafter’!

Clint Eastwood’s newest project is the Peter Morgan-scripted Hereafter, which is to star Matt Damon. It is described as a thriller in the vein of The Sixth Sense.

It is a drama about three people trying to figure out what, if anything, exists after death.

Damon’s character is the supernatural figure in the script: GEORGE, a “handsome, shy, soft-spoken” factory worker with a psychic gift which allows him to see dead people. We won’t see his dead communicators though and George will be doing his hardest not to see them himself.

Meanwhile, across the world, two different plot lines will play out that are touched by tragedy.

Gorgeous French journalist MARIE recovers from a near-death experience in the 2004 tsunami and is full of questions about what she saw before being revived.

Whilst in London, 12-year-old boy, MARCUS, loses his twin brother. He shuts down emotionally whilst searching for a way to contact his lost brother in the afterlife.

What follows is that three lonely people, who are cut off from the ones they love, search for answers about what lies beyond this earthly life.

Sounds good. I look forward to seeing it when it comes out. And I hope they make it look real as in The Sixth Sense.
