Oscar® winner Matt Damon ("Good Will Hunting,"
"Invictus") stars in "Hereafter," directed by Academy Award® winner
Clint Eastwood ("Million Dollar Baby," "Unforgiven") from a screenplay
by two time Oscar® nominee Peter Morgan ("Frost/Nixon," "The Queen").
"Hereafter" tells the story of three people who are
haunted by mortality in different ways. Matt Damon stars as George, a
blue-collar American who has a special connection to the afterlife. On
the other side of the world, Marie (Cecile de France), a French
journalist, has a near-death experience that shakes her reality. And
when Marcus (Frankie/George McLaren), a London schoolboy, loses the
person closest to him, he desperately needs answers. Each on a path in
search of the truth, their lives will intersect, forever changed by what
they believe might--or must--exist in the hereafter.
The film also stars award-winning French actress Cecile
de France ("A Secret") as Marie, and twins Frankie and George McLaren.
The international cast also includes Jay Mohr ("Street Kings," TV's
"Gary Unmarried"), Bryce Dallas Howard ("Eclipse," "Spider-Man 3"),
Marthe Keller, Thierry Neuvic and Derek Jacobi.
"Hereafter" is produced by Eastwood, multiple
Oscar®-nominated producer Kathleen Kennedy ("The Curious Case of
Benjamin Button," "Munich," "E.T.") and two-time Oscar® nominee Robert
Lorenz ("Letters from Iwo Jima," "Mystic River"). Steven Spielberg,
Frank Marshall, Peter Morgan and Tim Moore served as executive
producers.
Behind the scenes, Eastwood reunited with his longtime
collaborators, including director of photography Tom Stern, production
designer James J. Murakami, editors Joel Cox and Gary D. Roach, and
costume designer Deborah Hopper.
"Hereafter" was filmed entirely on location in Paris, London, Hawaii and San Francisco.
