Jeff Bridges has two movies in theaters this month, Tron Legacy and True Grit. They’re very different in every sense of the word. One is a rusty and tough Western and the other is a sleek and polished fantasy flick. The one thing they have in common is Bridges and the talent and feeling that only he can bring. While out promoting his latest film with the Coen Brothers ( he also worked with them on The Big Lebowski) he spoke about making the jump from Crazy Heart to Tron to True Grit, and the preparation he went through to make the transition. He also revealed how nervous he was to take on a role previously played by John Wayne and what the Coen’s had to do to convince him to star in the film.

It’s been close to 42 years since we last saw the escapades of Rooster Cogburn and Mattie Ross on the big screen in True Grit. The original 1969 film was directed by Henry Hathaway and featured John Wayne in his only Oscar winning role. So when the acclaimed directing team of Joel and Ethan Coen decided to adapt the Charles Portis novel of the same name, they had their work cut out for them.

Find out what the Coens, actos Jeff Bridges and Barry Pepper, and cinematographer Roger Deakins had to say about their journey from the page to the screen…

Last weekend, Oscar winner Jeff Bridges appeared as the host on the holiday themed episode of “Saturday Night Live.” Even though the show has been seriously lacking in the comedy department over the past few years, this latest installment had its moments. The writers teamed Bridges with an awesome blue creature from “Sesame Street” — Cookie Monster! If you remember, back in November Cookie Monster shot an audition tape (which went viral) to prove that he had what it takes to host SNL. He may not have gotten the gig but he did get to appear in this week’s opening monologue and we gotta tell you, he stole the show! Check it out…
