Career

Eastwood began his career by using his given last name to avoid nepotism, although there is another actor named Scott Reeves. "I've auditioned for pretty much every one of my father's movies", he said in 2015, stating that he was rejected for the Clint Eastwood-directed American Sniper.{{cite news|url = https://variety.com/2015/tv/news/scott-eastwood-longest-ride-shirtless-movie-star-1201470269|title = Scott Eastwood, Riding Towards Movie Stardom|work = Variety|date =April 10, 2015|access-date = April 10, 2015|last=Setoodeh |first=Ramin}} He briefly appeared in his father's 2008 film Gran Torino, and played Joel Stransky in Invictus.

Personal life

In August 2017, Eastwood opened up to the media about the death of his former girlfriend, Jewel Brangman, who was killed on September 7, 2014, by a faulty Takata airbag. The airbag exploded in her face after a minor automobile accident in her 2001 Honda Civic. Metal shrapnel from the explosion severed her carotid artery.{{cite web | url=https://people.com/celebrity/scott-eastwoods-girlfriend-jewel-brangman-died-from-faulty-airbag-in-crash/ | title=Scott Eastwood's Girlfriend Jewel Brangman Died from Faulty Airbag in Crash }}https://www.usnews.com/news/business/articles/2015/06/19/honda-government-confirm-8th-death-from-takata-air-bags

Eastwood has spoken about his experiences in Hollywood in 2022 and compared it to being "in a circus". He stated that "It's an amazing circus at times, but living on the road, I think it would be tough. I don't have a family yet, but I want that someday, and I think about what that would look like with kids and being away from them. That worries me."{{cite web |last1=Guerrasio |first1=Jason |title=Hollywood broke Scott Eastwood's heart, but he's not giving up — yet |url=https://www.insider.com/scott-eastwood-suicide-squad-sequel-shia-labeouf-fight-2022-2 |website=Insider |access-date=February 17, 2022 |date=February 17, 2022}}
