It’s nice to read news like this. I’ve been having my doubts about weather or not Indiana Jones 4 would actually get made. But Coming Soon has put many of those fears to rest with this:
Frank Darabont had written a draft, but that did not receive the green light. Instead, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg hired Jeff Nathanson to do a rewrite and things are looking good.
Asked whether or not “Indy 4” will still be made, Ford answered, “No doubt about it.” And while he says this next film is his, he wouldn’t mind a younger actor playing Indy in possible future films. The site added that George Lucas, who rejected Darabont’s script, is happy with the new draft from Nathanson.
I don’t know how I feel about a younger guy taking over the role of Indiana Jones. Yeah, it works for Bond… but I just can’t picture someone else wearing the hat and cracking the whip. I guess I’ll wait and see.
Putting the character of Indiana Jones aside for a moment, I’d just love to see Steven Spielberg and George Lucas make another film together!
