Take this with a large grain of salt, but it’s being buzzed that Indiana Jones 4 may finally have some solid momentum going with news that Laura Dutta, a 19 year old model has supposedly landed a role in Indiana Jones 4 with a “small speaking role”.
The good folks over at AICN give us the following:
It is official! Model Laura Dutta represented by ASH Models has landed a role in Indiana Jones 4. The movie is the 4th sequel in the Indiana Jones franchise and will cast Harrison Ford and Sean Connery. Indiana Jones 4 is to be directed by Steven Spielberg.
So is this news real? Well… the sources credited seem credible enough, but even the guys over at AICN raise a very good point… we thought Sean Connery had retired!! So is this just a hoax from someone who is a year behind on their movie news (they obviously don’t read The Movie Blog enough) or do they really know something the rest of us didn’t?
I tend to lean to the “it’s real” side on this one. Harrison Ford has nothing but time… George Lucas has a LOT more free time now that Star Wars is put to bed, and although Spielberg is busy now… he has less on his future calendar than he has in a while. Things seem to be in place to really get moving soon for Indiana Jones 4. At least I hope so.
