Jeff Bridges may be on the path to another Oscar. The trailer for the veteran actor's latest flick True Grit sure doesn't disappoint. The Joel and Ethan Coen-directed film is a remake of the 1969 John Wayne classic that earned Wayne his one and only Oscar.

This time around, Jeff plays the eye-patch wearing, rugged, aged and tough U.S. Marshal Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn.
