Clint Eastwood: Kurier interview is a complete fake!

Österreich - Clint Eastwood, the celebrated US filmmaker, caused excitement in an interview with the Österreichische Zeitung "Kurier" on his 95th birthday on June 3, 2025 when he described the publication as "completely invented". Eastwood came into public to clarify that he had never spoken to the "courier". In the present publication, critical voices also expressed his perception of the film industry, which Eastwood described as poor in relation to new ideas.

The "Kurier" had designed the interview in such a way that it gave the impression of a current conversation. Despite the allegations, the newspaper made it clear that no quote was invented and calls the allegations of counterfeiting unjustified. Nevertheless, the "Kurier" decided to separate himself from the author, Elisabeth Sereda concerned, after she had taken part in group matters with Eastwood 18 times. The controversy led to the fact that the article is no longer accessible online and was replaced by a notification of the "courier".
