Clint Eastwood's Son Joins the "Pacific Rim" Sequel
Actor Scott Eastwood, son of the legendary, award-winning filmmaker, joins Cheddar to discuss his role in the upcoming film, "Pacific Rim Uprising." The movie takes place 10 years after the 2013 film and explores the journey of Jake Pentecost, son of Idris Elba's Pacific Rim hero Stacker Pentecost.
Eastwood plays Jaeger pilot Nate Lambert in the film. He teases what viewers can expect and what it was like to be an actor in a movie full of robots. He talks about the changing movie landscape and finding roles as more platforms create original content.
Plus, Eastwood has teamed up with Japan's largest airline, ANA, to promote travel to Asia. He talks about why it's such a special place for him and how he fell in love with the country filming "Pacific Rim Uprising" in China.

A new study shows different strategies may be effective at motivating people to donate, apart from all that “sadvertising.” The study from Nathan Chan, assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Casey Wichman, assistant professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, found that people in good moods are more likely to donate to a charitable cause.
