Jeff Bridges and Josh Brolin were spilling behind-the-scenes secrets to ET about their new western, the Coen Brothers' remake of 'True Grit,' when Jeff revealed that he's about to become a first-time grandfather!

The Oscar winner told us that his oldest daughter is pregnant with a baby girl. "I got one on the way, Ysabel," the proud soon-to-be grandfather revealed. "I'm just thrilled! ... It's wonderful."

Meanwhile, Josh dished crying at a screening of 'True Grit' (and getting teased for it by his wife Diane Lane!). "It's extremely moving by the end of it," Josh said of the western.  "For me, I'm a mush pot, so I'm crying, and I'm freaking in the movie so I know what's gonna happen."

In theaters Dec. 22, 'True Grit' finds Jeff Bridges stepping into John Wayne's boots as Rooster Cogburn in this remake of the 1969 western. Matt Damon and Josh also star in this story of a U.S. Marshal who helps a stubborn young woman track down her father's killer.
