Clint rejects Dirty Harry revival
Hollywood bosses want Clint Eastwood to bring back Dirty Harry - at the age of 72.
But the screen legend has turned down the offer because he reckons he is too old.
Eastwood played maverick detective Inspector Harry Callahan in five movies between 1971 and 1988.
At the Cannes Film Festival, he told how film bosses wanted him to revive the tough guy role even though he turns 73 this week.
"I've even had suggestions to go back and revisit Harry Callahan," he said. "But sometimes you have to move on in certain things and that's not where I am today."
