First Poster for Clint Eastwood's INVICTUS

Clint Eastwood has become one of my favorite directors. The guy can get the absolute best performances ever from his actors, and he knows how to tell a great story. Anything he does I'm excited for, and Invictus is his next film, which stars Matt Damon as rugby player Francois Pienaar and Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela.

The film tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela joined forces with the captain of South Africa's rugby team to help unite their country. Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa's rugby team as they make their historic run to the 1995 Rugby World Cup Championship match.

The movie comes out on December 11th, which means it will be in the Oscar race. Can Clint Eastwood get another Oscar nomination!? I'd bet on yes.  Check out the poster below and tell us what you think.
