Clint Eastwood's 9 Least Badass Roles

Trouble With the Curve
Warner Bros.

Clint Eastwood is the last, lonely representative of a mythical breed — the badass. Oh sure, there are other tough-guy actors out there (Stallone, Schwarzenegger and other assorted Expendables) but they're all a little too oiled, chiseled and ready for their Men's Health cover shoots. Eastwood is old-school; the kind of gunslinger who survived his shoot-outs not by having bigger biceps, but because he's leaner, meaner and smarter than the bad guy. Men fear his squint, not his heavy artillery or super powers. Get More »

Swing For the 'Trouble With the Curve' Trailer

Trouble With the Curve
Warner Bros.

"A computer doesn't know if a player has instincts!" We take it the writers of "Trouble With the Curve" don't believe in "Moneyball."

Clint Eastwood plays a somewhat softer version of his "Gran Torino" character (he only yells two or three times and gets into only one bar fight in the trailer) in this tale of a going-blind baseball scout who reunites with his somewhat estranged daughter (Amy Adams) while on one last assignment. Meanwhile, she falls for dad's younger colleague (Justin Timberlake), who introduces her to the joys of doing crazy things like jumping into lakes in the middle of the night. Get More »
