* RealitySubtext: The line, "This is the last one. So help me, God, this is the last one" played over the trailer applies [[OneLastJob in-universe]] but also has strong implications for the eighty-eight year old Creator/ClintEastwood taking another, possibly final, round starring in a film he also directs (though he made and starred in ''Film/CryMacho'' afterwards). It's quite similar to the atmosphere surrounding 2008's ''Film/GranTorino'', which was also speculated to be the last starring role of Eastwood's lengthy career.
