Any Which Way You Can is a 1980 American action comedy film, starring Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke, Geoffrey Lewis, William Smith, and Ruth Gordon. It is directed by Buddy Van Horn. The film is the sequel to the 1978 hit comedy film Every Which Way but Loose. Philo Beddoe is still bare-knuckle boxing to make ends meet while hanging out with Clyde the orangutan, and his brother Orville Boggs. Philo decides to retire from fighting but the Mafia has other ideas and he is forced into another fight. A motorcycle gang and a wayward girlfriend add to his troubles as Philo tries to go his own way.... Any Which Way You Can's filming started in summer 1980. The film was filmed in the California communities of Sun Valley, North Hollywood, and Bakersfield, and in picturesque Jackson, Wyoming. Clyde is much physically different in the film than in Every Which Way but Loose. This is because the original orangutan, Manis, had matured too much since the first film and was too large and possibly dangerous. The ape who played Clyde in the second film died of a cerebral hemorrhage two weeks after the film wrapped.
