Old Space Cowboys were our first choice.
Frank is the team leader and has been working as a NASA engineer since Daedalus disbanded. Hawk uses his unique piloting skills to become an aerobatic pilot. Jerry was a genius physicist who turned into a roller coaster designer. Tank becomes a Baptist pastor in the countryside. The four old space cowboys are played by Clint Eastwood (70 years old at the time of release), Tommy Lee Jones (54 years old, surprisingly young!), Donald Sutherland (65 years old), and James A lovely old man named Garner (72 years old).
"They were my first choice. Luckily, all four of them took it, so I didn't have to step back from the line I set out in the first place. They're all guys I respect, and James Garner and Donald Sutherland, and Tommy Lee Jones has always been a source of envy for me. I think it's a great ensemble for a movie like this."

However, it seems that filming was quite tough for the Grandpa actors, with James Garner dislocating his shoulder and Donald Sutherland suffering a cracked knee. In the movie, there was a scene where they were ridiculed as ``old staff'' instead of ``The Right Stuff,'' but in reality, they were also whipping old people.
In this film, the role that was originally played by Eastwood alone seems to be distributed and assigned to other members. " Firefox" means "a skilled craftsman" who is stubborn and stubborn, but is first-rate in his work, as represented by the skilled pilot in "Firefox" (1982) and the skilled thief in " Sighting " (1997). ). A man who continues to pursue his dreams, as depicted in `` Bronco Billy '' (1980) and `` Honkytonk Man '' (1982). Since the beginning of the 1990s, movies such as ` `In the Line of Fire '' (1993) and ` `True Crime '' (1999) have become more prominent. And then there is the ``popular man'' who scares away women and turns them into objects, as typified by `` The Bridges of Madison County '' (1995).
"Space Cowboys" is filled with all kinds of "Eastwood-esque" characters.
