Clint Eastwood says a recent viral article of a purported interview with him and Austrian newspaper 'Kurier' never happened.

An earlier version of this article was published on June 2. It has been updated with statements from the interview’s author and publisher.

On May 30, an Austrian outlet called Kurier, which The Guardian reports has a circulation of about 100,000 readers, published an interview with Clint Eastwood, supposedly given right before his 95th birthday.
