‘Indiana Jones 5’ Will Miss 2020 Release Date [UP: New date: July 9, 2021]
- Thread starter ManaByte
- Start date
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in 2008 was the 4th film, plus the TV Series in the 90s.
It's for the best. David Koepp may be Spielberg's golden boy but I never thought he was a good fit for the series. Some of the best stuff in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is the Marion Ravenwood stuff which Larry Kasdan actually wrote uncredited. At least John has Larry on speed dial to the character right on last time.
Yeah, strange calling it Indy 5 when they haven't made a fourth one.
What are you talking about? There never was a fourth Indiana Jones movie. It's barely 3.
I'm sorry, but I still don't understand the need for this.
I mean this with no offense, but Harrison Ford isn't exactly a spring chicken, much less when he was in the 4th movie even.
The older he gets, the harder it is to believe that he is still capable of doing all the stunts and action scenes expected from the series. I mean what, are they gonna do a 6th movie afterwards with him in a wheelchair running down Russian soldiers?
If a new one MUST be made, then I think a reboot ala Star Trek or James Bond should be in order.

So if production doesn't start until mid-2020 that means Harrison will be 78 years old during shooting. lmao.
In theory but he's 86 so the odds decrease with each year the film is delayed.
For fucks sake, another delay by a year? You gotta wonder if Spielberg really wants to make this movie.
they'll probably have Ford's role play like Sean Connery's role in the 3rd film and let a new lead do the heavy lifting. they need to pass the torch either way if they want to keep this franchise going and that involves proving the new lead can live up to Ford in the originals.
You really gonna complain that Spielberg is refusing to move ahead on a Koepp draft that feels undercooked?
This is a good sign for IJ5, if anything.
Yup. Sorry, but it's too late for another IJ movie with Ford. Sean Connery was only 56, 56!, when they filmed Last Crusade. It's over.
Make it a prequel to Raiders and had Harrison Ford tell the story. Get the guy who played him in Solo to play a young Indiana Jones.

Not just no...but HELL NO
Not just no...but HELL NO
Jesus Christ, no. I would rather they bring Shia back than that. ANYTHING but that.
That is good. What is not good is the long delays, and the fact that Spielberg keeps on adding new projects in front of Indy 5 (The Post and West Side Story). Doesn't really scream enthusiasm about Indy 5.
