Charlotte (CNN) - Clint Eastwood meet Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman and Kerry Washington.
The three actresses, firmly anchored in Hollywood's royalty, have been secretly scheduled to speak at the Democratic National Convention, according to a tentative schedule provided by a source to CNN.

Check out the CNN Electoral Map and Calculator and game out your own strategy for November.
The schedule lists the three actresses as speaking on Thursday evening, the same night that President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will accept their party's respective nominations. Johansson, Portman and Washington are listed as following The Foo Fighters on the itinerary. Convention officials announced that the alternative rock band would perform last week.
A source told CNN the hope is to have the three actresses appear on stage together.
It's unclear if the schedule has been finalized or is subject to change. When contacted by CNN, a DNC official said that no final details about the Thursday program would be divulged at this time.
CNN reached out to representatives for each actress but did not receive comment for Johansson and Portman. A representative for Washington would only say the actress is currently filming in Los Angeles.
Though several celebrities are slated to attend the DNC, appearances by Johansson, Portman and Washington would surely invite special political scrutiny.

Anyone who could be persuaded by these three dingbats to vote for Obama...would never be smart enough to vote for a Republican anyway.

Stupid Hollywood women looking to end their careers I guess. Box office is already down this summer. They’ve already written off conservatives. Guess they don’t need our money. May they all end up broke.

Scarlett Johansson is a great example of how makeup and good lighting can have a huge impact.
A completely average girl.

Ditto. Gotta be a stalwart in political circles, right? To compete with Eastwood? No? Hmmm... okay, then.

I notice the Democrats did NOT manage to get Will Smith up there to declare that he needs to pony up more in taxes.

I saw the trailer for Clint’s new movie when I saw “2016.” Very appropriate, and I was thinking, “I will go see that to support Clint, and it also looks like a very good movie!”
