Eastwood Grants Likeness for Dirty Harry Games

Posted on February 24, 2005

Clint Eastwood has gone ahead and made gamers' day by granting his virtual "Dirty Harry" likeness to a new series of video games. In addition to participating in the digitizing of character "Dirty Harry" Callahan, Eastwood will also be consulting on key creative aspects of the game design. "This will be an opportunity to satisfy the many requests over the years to continue the 'Dirty Harry' legacy, only now in the video game medium," said Clint Eastwood. The game will be developed by Warner Bros. Interactive, along with Clint Eastwood's Malpaso and The Tehama Companies. Warner Bros. said the games would be made for next generation consules but did not mention a PC game version in the press release.

It has been a good year for Eastwood and it could be a great year -- he is considering to have a good chance of winning Best Director at this year's Academy Awards for the film, Million Dollar Baby.
