Lucas has been speaking lately at Cannes about a possible Indy film....whether its true or just Lucas spinning a yarn I'm not sure??? It does also make me wonder again could Shia be a new Indy for a new generation??

"I haven’t even told Steven or Harrison this," he said. "But I have an idea to make Shia [LeBeouf] the lead character next time and have Harrison [Ford] come back like Sean Connery did in the last movie. I can see it working out.

"And it’s not like Harrison is even old. I mean, he’s 65 and he did everything in this movie. The old chemistry is there, and it’s not like he’s an old man. He’s incredibly agile; he looks even better than he did 20 years ago, if you ask me."

We've talked about Shia taking over from Indy eventually and I can certainly see it happening one day. But it all depends on how the actors feel about it.......does Harrison want to carry on as Indy for another couple of films before handing over to Shia? It depends on how well Crystal Skull performs at the box office too.......though the fans will love it even if the critics don't!

It also depends on Shia too and whether he is good or not.....many may see him as more of a sidekick irritant than a possible replacement? I'm guessing though that he is very good at the archaelogical stuff too?

I can't wait to see the film

It could be that Mutt has a knack of tracking things down and getting into trouble...in much the same way as Indy does! I think they'll make a good team......they'll possibly have a bickering kind of relationship but they get things done

Yeah but part of what makes Indy great is that he has brilliant knowledge of the artefacts he goes after...I think if he is to continue as a possible replacement he needs to be extremely smart

I reckon your right though and they will bicker and throw out smart remarks to one another throughout...should be fun!!

If they see it's about Indy and Mutt they might think it's a cartoon
