Mr Eastwood's new movie Invictus has written 2010 Oscar all over it!
As a South African, I was tremendoulsy excited when I heard that Eastwood was directing a new film that is a look at life for Nelson Mandela after the fall of apartheid during his first term as president when South Africa campaigned to host the 1995 Rugby World Cup. This historical event united many South Africans and bridged equility gaps.
Invictus stars Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela and Matt Damon as former South African rugby player Francois Pienaar. Hopefully, Damon masters the South African accent and we are not left with another Dicaprio Blood Diamond fiasco.
The film was shot in Cape Town and feautures a lot of South African talent. I cannot wait!
The film is being released 11 Desember 2009 from Warner Bros. View the trailer here.
