Executive Producer = Collect a CheckAnd here's the latest
Fans have questioned whether or not George Lucas would be involved in the upcoming Indiana Jones 5, especially after the Lucas-free production of the new Star Wars films. But according to director Steven Spielberg, Lucas will definitely be involved in the film.
During a press roundtable event for The BFG, the film's director Spielberg revealed that Lucas will be an executive producer on Indiana Jones 5, returning to the character he and Spielberg last brought to the big screen in 2008's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
When asked about Lucas's involvement with the project, Spielberg said:
"George is gonna to be an executive producer on it with me. ... I would never make an Indiana Jones film without George Lucas. That'd be insane."
It shouldn't come as a surprise that Spielberg will make the film with input from Lucas. After all, the pair have successfully worked together on every Indiana Jones flick, creating one of the film world's great adventure heroes. How much input he'll have as an executive producer remains to be seen, though given the pair's close friendship, we suspect Lucas will at least provide advice during the development stage. We knew Harrison Ford and Spielberg were returning, and with the help of Lucas we expect another exciting adventure from cinema's greatest archeologist.
And in case you missed it, John Williams has also confirmed that he will score Indy 5 & Star Wars Episode VIII & IX!
The Walt Disney Company and Lucasfilm announced today two major upcoming release dates.
Star Wars: Episode IX is now set for release on May 24, 2019. Directed by Colin Trevorrow, the film will close out the third Star Wars trilogy.
In addition, the fifth chapter of the Indiana Jones series is now confirmed for a July 10, 2020 release. Both Steven Spielberg, director of every Indiana Jones film, and star Harrison Ford will return.
I'll never watch another Indy again after that terrible 4th.
I'm not watching him get destroyed again
Good move.Wow big news:
"Steven Spielberg is stepping down as director of the INDIANA JONES franchise with James Mangold (Logan, Ford v Ferrari) in talks to replace him.
Spielberg will remain as producer and Harrison Ford remains on as Indy."
Good move.
Now would be a good opportunity to make this the proper transition for Indy… from Ford to….
