Juror #2 (2024)

From Oscar-winning filmmaker Clint Eastwood, Juror #2 stars Nicholas Hoult as a family man serving jury duty on a high-profile murder trial who finds himself struggling with a serious moral dilemma … one he could use to sway the verdict and potentially convict – or free – the accused killer.

The 40th directorial outing from the now-95-year-old Eastwood, Juror #2 is among Eastwood’s best works, says IndieWire. “Not only does the film rise to the occasion, it soars past it,” IndieWire says. “Juror #2 both enriches our understanding of the Hollywood icon who made it and stands on its own as one of the best studio films released in 2024… [and] exudes the certainty of an artist who knows exactly what will define him after he’s gone.”

Boasting a 93% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a place among the American National Board of Review’s Top Ten Films of 2024, and multiple critics’ awards, Juror #2 also sports a stellar cast, including JK Simmons, Toni Collette and Kiefer Sutherland.
