Indy 5 to be Spielbergs next movie

The next Indy film has been in the works since 2015, when Lucasfilm boss Kathleen

Kennedy confirmed the wheels were in motion for another sequel. Frequent Spielberg collaborator David Koepp (Spider-Man, Jurassic Park) was brought on board to pen the script and the film was slated for a summer 2019 release until Spielberg decided to sneak in his timely journalism drama The Post. Indiana Jones 5 is currently scheduled to arrive in theaters on July 10, 2020. Koepp told us last fall that they already had a script they were pretty happy with and that getting in front of cameras all comes down to timing

Didn't know the reason for it being put back to 2020 was due to The Post ..that's quite annoying. Also it'd have been the first time Indy be out same year as a Star Wars (unless 'Obi Wan' is due 2020).

Either way, looking forward to it. Hope they don't kill him like they killed Han. Hope Marion comes back. Glad Mutt won't. Wonder who the villain(s) will be.

I'd like to see Mark Hamill play the villain, or at least have a role in the film. Shame that Harrison and Mark didn't share screen time in TFA or TLJ.

Hamill could cameo as a professor in neighbouring classroom that Indy walks into by mistake

Prof. Jones would have to be retired by now!

Mark Hammil could be some guy he meets in a South American cantina...

Not necessarily if he loves his job he could stay on and teach (part time)

Harrison Ford is seventy-five years old. I have no idea if universities had mandatory retirement ages (or strongly encouraged retirement ages) back in the middle of the 20th century, but 75 is a bit old to be teaching the kids of the sixties and seventies.

But really, I can't believe that Indiana Jones would want to keep teaching archeology as conflict and protest and hippies swept over the college campuses of the US during the late sixties and early seventies, he'd rather get out and do some archeology. And being a professor emeritus is such a sweet deal!
