Clint Eastwood: Reality TV Star?

Of all the celebrities that might agree to a reality show based around their lives, Clint Eastwood would probably be the furthest from your mind, right? Well, not so fast, because according to TMZ Eastwood and his family are in the middle of shooting a new reality series intended to air on the E! network. Providing a basic premise, the source says “the show will explore what it’s like to live in a family of ‘Hollywood royalty.'” Before people get their hopes up thinking that Clint will be the star of the show, he has only agreed to make a few cameo appearances. Instead, the focus will stay on Clint’s wife Dina, their daughter Morgan, and Clint’s 18-year-old daughter Francesca, who is an aspiring actress. So, who’s ready to see old Clint give his kids career advice, a la Ozzy Osbourne?

The show is being produced by Bunim/Murray, who are well known for bringing us other reality shows like The Real World, Bad Girls Club and the Kardashian shows. Right now, they are hoping get the show on the air within the next few months. Since Eastwood represents one of the most iconic stars of cinema, this news has me both confused and fascinated. I would probably watch out of curiosity, but at the same time I probably wouldn’t feel good about it. Will you be looking forward to an Eastwood family reality show? How do you think a project like this came about in the first place?



  • that will be awesome, Clint telling the gardener “to make his day”, baboons in the toilet, family members comparing Clint’s penis to online photos of Madonna’s arms. FANTASTIC!!!
