The fourth installment isn’t even in theaters yet, but George Lucas is already talking up a potential fifth installment in the Indiana Jones franchise. In an interview with FOXNews, the director revealed that he has an idea to make more Indy films, but with a twist, Mutt Williams (Shia LaBeouf) would be the lead character:
“I haven’t even told Steven or Harrison this,” Lucas told FOXNews. “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.”
For his part, LaBeouf wasn’t against the idea as he expressed interest, though with some reservations, to MTV:
“I don’t think a Mutt spinoff would be as big as Indiana Jones,” LaBeouf told MTV. “[But] fingers crossed!”
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull hits theaters this Thursday. Reviews are starting to trickle in and, thankfully, they’re mostly positive (It’s sitting at 81% currently at RT). So who else is excited for Indy?

Indiana Jones and space ships don’t mix. Other than that, it was pretty good.
Keep the movies coming!
There is no accounting for people’s taste but I just can’t understand how anyone could like this movie? I won’t spoil anything and be my guest to go judge for yourself but it was nothing like the first 3 Indy’s. There was no character development to speak of, the action was overblown and unbelievable (I even heard kids behind me say “no way that could happen!). It was so unbelievable it was insulting. It was almost like this movie was a parody of the first 3 movies. Kind of like Scary Movie was to horror movies or Hot Shots was to action movies. Bad form guys…bad form.
i like the idia and i think indy will have plenty of fight scenes
