It just seems like yesterday that Shia Labeouf unleashed to the world that Steven Spielberg had cracked the story for the next Indiana Jones adventure. Now it looks like this little Indiana Jones sequel news has been confirmed by producer Frank Marshall. As of right now it is all about the script, but it sounds like a script is going to be written and Marshall is looking forward to reading it. He recently told Empire:
“It’s really about the script. Once we see that, we’ll see. We’re not going to wait another 20 years. We’d all love to make another one. I’m anxious to hear the idea!“
So it sounds like if the the script is good and everyone likes it they will greenlight it as soon as possible. Does this mean that everyone will be involved? Like Lucas, Spielberg, and Harrison Ford? Marshall Says:
“Yeah. We had a great time making the last one and, as Harrison said, we need to make this one soon. We’re not getting any younger.”
Ain’t that the truth! Ford will be 67 years old soon! He’s almost 70, thats just crazy. He’s not gonna be able to jump off all terrain vehicles and swinging around on his whip for much longer. Marshall concludes saying:
“Until there’s a script, nothing’s definite. I haven’t heard the idea.”
I’m kind of scared to hear what the new idea is after that last movie. What are your ideas for an Indiana Jones part 5?

Are there any other old, unused drafts of movies Spielberg or Lucas were attached to during the 80s that they could mine scenes from? Or will they finally remake the Fate of Atlantis game?
or how about they just don't. Don't friggin' do it. Please?
As much as I like Harrison Ford (and he will always be Indiana Jones), they could tell more stories with a different actor in the part. Wait! Don't freak out. Think about it….James Bond, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica and now Star Trek. The public will accept it if it's done right. I always thought Dennis Quaid would be a good Indy. But, I suppose, at about 55, he's starting to get a bit old for the part, too. Still, he's got 12 years on Mr. Ford. Just tell a decent story and I'll check it out.
media – thats what i had stated previously. keep the character, but with a new actor – nathan fillion or someone with the same style that we've come to know. because everything is remake and reboot – how about rebooting this series?? the last one was ok – shia sucked and the alien story sucked as well. i was 12 when the first indy came out and even i dont want some geriatric dude playn him even if its ford.
Fillion would be okay. I'm afraid that their plans are to spinoff with Shai, though. Another movie would set him up as the star, "Mutt Williams and the Franchise of Doom!"
Yeah, I like Quaid, though I can't see him playing Indiana Jones… even when he was younger.
As for the comments on Fillion. That could be interesting, since he's practically played Solo already. But I'm not sure if I could see him doing it either.
Granted, just because I can't see someone else playing the roll doesn't mean it can't be done well. Just need a good actor and some good writing. I mean, they pulled it off pretty well with Star Trek.
Ok, first of all, no one else should play Indy but…. well, Indy. Also, I hope they can fix what they did in K. O. THE CRYSTAL SKULL by making a fourth one that's more real like Riaders….
THey like to say that the fan's have changed, and all that, but the truth is, they did somthing great with the first three, and shouldn't have stopped.
Raiders ahd a kind of semi-real quality to tit that was amazing, because the story sprawled, and you had this kind of late afternoon boyish/world weary quality to it that bridges a gap between being 16 and 40 and up. Temple of Doom was not the same, and Last Crusade brought it back. But in Riaders, you just feel more like it's real, or like somthing could go wrong, or like it's all happening right there and you are involved.
I don't know. It wasn't geared to 12 year olds, for one.
P.S. You really need to re-lease that scene of Harrison and COnnery walking in the train station when they meet Sallah. That'd be awesome after these 20 years.
Also, Dear George, PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEase not C.G.I.
Not for Indy. It's just lacking. Please, get Frank Derbart or whoever did the others. I want it to be good. THe original script for Cystal Skull was cool, and you should ahve done it when he wrote it. Before Marion was 50. (P.S. WHy does she look better in real life and in every interview then she does in most the movie?)
