Shia denies Indy 4 rumor
Collider.com was at an event for Surf's Up that stars Shia LaBeouf and he had this to say about the rumors of him starring in Indiana 4.
"Its turned into this insane thing, and its fun to watch everybody talk about it, but I dont have a deal or a part or anything set, he told Steve. Ill tell you when I hear it."
Shia says it's fun to watch everyone talk about it and yet he is the one who got all this talk going by telling online reporters! He could still be in talks to be in Indy 4 but what is aggravating me is how he is getting all the attention for a movie he may or may not be in. This is the sort of stuff Indiana Jones fans don't need or want.
Thanks to CHUD for the info. |

THINGS TO DO DURING THE OSCARS Harrison wasn't physically present at at the 2007 Oscars, but he was sort of there - in a potential and virtual capacity. His and Sandra Bullock's tribute to those seldom in the spotlight was cut from the telecast; a pretty peculiar decision by the producers - who may find dresses more interesting than TV ratings and audience tallies. You don't have to miss their piece: just glance left (this page) and hit the picture to see what you didn't get to see. You can also see and download the video from podtech.net or the HFW Sound and Vision Gallery. The downloaded file is best played with e.g Quicktime Player or Democracy Player.

INDIANA JONES CASTING RUMOR #3041
In the past there has been numerous rumors associated with Indiana Jones 4 - Remember the Lucy Liu casting a couple of years ago and the still persistent rumor of Natalie Portman being cast? Well here is another one for you and this time two major movie news sites have reliable sources confirming this one.
According to Drew from Aint it Cool news - article here - Shia La Beouf (Constantine, I, Robot) has been cast as Indiana Jones' son. Devin Faraci from CHUD has also confirmed this rumor - read here.
Only time will tell if this latest rumor is true or not or if a dozen more casting rumors pop up in the next few weeks.
Should this last rumor be true and they follow the storyline in The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles TV series, it opens for some pretty interesting consequences: Indiana Jones must have fathered two children - since the TV series shows old Indy speaking to his grandchildren and they are clearly stated to be the offspring of his daughter. Follow the discussion in the HFW Forum!! |

MANHUNT UPDATE
If Ecuadorian movie blog Cinerama and newspaper El Universo were right in November 2006, the project was then pretty paralyzed due to discord over shooting locations. According to the El Universo article, Harrison preferred shooting in the United States, whereas the producers wanted to shoot in Romania to cut costs. Apparently Harrison and director Sebastián Cordero put the project on "wait" and went on to other things. The script has been worked on since and a recent IMDb update now lists the movie as "in production" with opening set to 2009 and no changes re: director or cast. Worth noticing is that the scriptwriters list now contains the name Andrew W. Marlowe ("Air Force One"). Mike Rich ("Finding Forrester", The Rookie") was on board from the outstart of the project. The addition of Marlowe tells us somebody's been flexing muscle. Hoping that the project is out of deadwater, we'll will be posting more as soon as we know more. A good place to check is always the Manhunt section of the HFW Forum and our Manhunt page. NEW SECTION - AND A REVIVED ONE We've added a new section: Leading Adversaries and breathed life into an old favorite: Trivia. Why not have a look at the toughies Harrison's had to handle on the screen or try your wits at one of our quizzes?

INDY 4 CINEMATOGRAPHER ON BOARD Cinematographer is chosen for Indiana Jones 4, and this important job goes to the lauded Janusz Kaminski, a steady preference on Steven Spielberg's projects. Kaminski has two Oscars under his belt (for Saving Private Ryan and Schindler's List) and a number of other prestigious wins and nominations. It takes a quite a man to replace the late Douglas Slocombe and we believe the team has found exactly the right man. News Source: Spielbergfilms.com CGI WHIP?? To be taken with more than one grain of salt, but here we go since it's on everybody's lips: The Unsubstantiated Rumor of the Week: The less serious part of the British press has run hot his week with the rumor that Indiana Jones won't be allowed to crack his whip for real in the new movie and that the cracking action would be substituted with computer graphics - due to "new film safety rules". The same rumor also says that Harrison has called this "ridiculous" and that he's threatened to back out of the project if he isn't allowed to do his stuff. If there's just the tiniest trace of truth in this we can't but agree with him. We even think "ridiculous" is way too polite. Read about it - and our visitors' opinion in the HFW forum.

The coordination problems between Messrs. Lucas and Spielberg (referred under Dec 31st. below) have been resolved: Shooting will start in June at yet undisclosed locations globally and in the United States. The old "family" is back behind the camera: George Lucas, Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy are executive producers. Helmer is Steven Spielberg. The approved story is by George Lucas and David Koepp, Production company: Lucasfilm, Distribution by: Paramount. We take it as given that John Williams will handle the musical score even if this isn't commented on in the industry press news items. As Indiana Jones? No extras for getting that one right. Harrison had the following comment on the occasion: "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." The movie's title is yet unknown, as is the rest of the cast. We can only hope they manage to persuade Sir Sean Connery to take a break from retirement and the writing of his autobiography [you hear that, Big Tam?!?]. (As Lucas said at the 2006 AFI Lifetime Achievement Award presentation for Sir Sean: "We're writing him in whether he wants to do it or not") We'd be more than delighted to see John Rhys-Davies and the girls (Karen Allen, Kate Capshaw and Alison Doody) again too-- At this stage we can't help wondering what sort of character and actor/actress who could possibly fill the void Denholm Elliott ("Marcus Brody") left when he died. We sincerely hope the new script takes this challenge into account and and beg all of you involved in this project: please get this new one exactly right...in respect and honor of that superb and deeply missed actor. Other than that: We're so happy (...and relieved -) Now, with our best hopes and wishes: GO GUYS & GALS!!! News sources: Lucasfilm Variety The Hollywood Reporter |

If you did not get a chance to see the Rose Bowl parade you missed the Star Wars feature in which the 501st (Stormtroopers) was out in full force and George Lucas was Grand Marshall. There is a video now available online here. Click on Rose Parade clip #5 and the Star Wars presentation is about five minutes into the clip (George is not shown in this clip.)
If you look closely there is a shot of a fan dressed as Anakin and you can view his Myspace profile here and read his blog about getting accepted by LucasFilm to participate. Another update on Indy and yes I'm the one that was quoted as saying "enough of the BS" . Anyhow, according to The Hollywood Reporter Steven Spielberg has confirmed that the script is ready and further went on to say "We feel that the script was well worth the wait. We hope it delivers everything you'd expect from our history with Indiana Jones." Read the entire article . here |
