Older-Indy.jpgHere it is, the official Lucasfilm press release about the filming of Indiana Jones 4. Take it for what it’s worth. I’ll still believe it when I see it.

The screenplay has been written by David Koepp.

The film will be produced by Frank Marshall with George Lucas and Kathy Kennedy as executive producers. “Working with Steven, Frank, Kathy and the Indy crew is like working with family,” states Lucas. “These films are such great fun to make. I’m looking forward to reuniting with the team and starting this new journey.”
