I was reading this article from IMDB:
http://www.imdb.com/news/wenn/#celeb5
"The eagerly awaiting new Indiana Jones movie won't be released for another two years, because producer George Lucas isn't happy with the script. Indiana Jones 4 has been in the works for a number of years but looked likely to hit screens next year after Lucas recruited star Harrison Ford and original director Steven Spielberg for the project, and hired Frank Darabont to write a screenplay. But Lucas has sent the Shawshank Redemption writer back to the drawing board. A studio source reveals, "Indiana Jones 4 was meant to start shooting this summer but won't now be coming out until 2006. Even though Harrison and director Steven Spielberg were happy with the screenplay, Lucas still doesn't like the final act and wants a faster pace and more action."
Well, this mean I gonna hafta put away my Indy whip and Hat away till 2006.
Why would it be such a bad idea? The only reason i can think of, is because Harrison is getting pretty damn old. Then again though, Indy's character had fought in two wars, stopped assinations, recovered numerous lost artifacts, discovered a lost city by the time he was twenty. It would be highly believable that the character Indiana jones would be able to do the things he does well into his late 50's. though harrison is older, hollywoods make up and stunt doubles could take off 15 years. Besides, i highly doubt that harrison ford, speilberg, and george lucas would bank on such a risky idea unless they new they could do it and do it right. Were talking about some of the best in the business that know how to entertain. It is a big risk though
