Indiana Jones 4' finally has a script

Indiana Jones 4' finally has a script (Paramount to begin filming pic in June)Full story at starwars.com *REQUIRES HYPERSPACE* sorry:(

For those that dont have Hyperspace Access here's the story.

After years of languishing in development, the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones franchise is finally moving ahead, as Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Harrison Ford look to reconnect with their blockbuster roots.

For Spielberg in particular, the project marks a return to the kind of pure entertainment fare on which he built his career before his interests turned to more social-minded fare like "Schindler's List," "Saving Private Ryan" and "Munich."

The trio confirmed Monday that Paramount is set to begin lensing the new Indiana Jones pic in June from a script by David Koepp ("Spider-Man";).

Par and Lucasfilm, which is producing, are eyeing a May 2008 worldwide release -- some 19 years after the last film in the action-adventure franchise, "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," came out.

Fans have long clamored for another installment in the series, but some questioned whether Ford would be able to keep up with the vigorous physical requirements of the role after the long delay. "I'm delighted to be back in business with my old friends. I don't know if the pants still fit, but I know the hat will," said Ford, who is 64.

Thesp, who will again topline, had always said he would reprise his role as the adventuring archeologist if he liked the script. Several scribes tried their hand at the project before Koepp was brought aboard in 2005.

"We feel that the script was well worth the wait. We hope it delivers everything you'd expect from our history with Indiana Jones," Spielberg said. "George, Harrison and I are all very excited."

Producer is Frank Marshall, while Kathleen Kennedy and Lucas are exec producing.

For Paramount, the greenlight seems to be another benefit of its pricey acquisition of DreamWorks.

The film doesn't yet have an official title. Producers wouldn't disclose the storyline other than to say there would be plenty of action. Pic will be shot in undisclosed points around the globe, as well as in the U.S.

Its been on the cards for a long time, and pretty much everyone has been interested in making it for a fair while. In fact i read an interview in a film magazine, where Lucas or someone was saying it seemed likely.

I'm much more interested in this than say Beverly Hills Cop IV. :P

I dunno, as much as I love the Indy movies they might ruin it with this one, to long of a wait methinks.


Rocky Balboa was fantastic, so this has the same potential, dont write it off just yet, with a good script it could work very well as the other indy's did

We can only hope :)
