Lucas: Filming `Indiana Jones 4' in 2007
Friday December 29 5:10 PM ET
George Lucas said Friday that filming of the long-awaited "Indiana Jones" movie will begin next year.
Harrison Ford, who appeared in the three earlier flicks, the last one coming in 1989, is set to star again.
Lucas said he and Steven Spielberg recently finalized the script for the film.
"It's going to be fantastic. It's going to be the best one yet," the 62-year-old filmmaker said during a break from preparing for his duties as grand marshal of Monday's Rose Parade.
Exact film locations have not been decided yet, but Lucas said part of the movie will be shot in Los Angeles.
The fourth chapter of the "Indiana Jones" saga, which will hit theaters in May 2008, has been in development for over a decade with several screenwriters taking a crack at the script, but it only recently gained momentum.
Lucas kept mum about the plot, but said that the latest action flick will be a "character piece" that will include "very interesting mysteries."
"I think it's going to be really cool," Lucas said.
At the inaugural Rome Film Festival in October, the 64-year-old Ford said he was excited to team up with Lucas and Spielberg again for the fourth "Indiana Jones" installment. Ford said he was "fit to continue" to play the title role despite his age.
Ford played Indiana Jones in 1981's "Raiders of the Lost Ark," 1984's "Temple of Doom" and 1989's "The Last Crusade."
Lucas praised Ford for breathing life into his character.
"Mostly it's the charm of Harrison that makes it work," he said.

I just expect to have a fun time at the theater. Popcorn, soda and a seat middle center. I'm so there.

Duh, really?

How cool would it be if they could swing the appropriate rights and have Indy Unlimited?
Where he has to accomplish the mission by teaming up with hard hitters like Doc Savage (and team), The Green Hornet (and Kato), The Shadow (and team) and Tarzan (and Cheetah).
Yes. I know that will not happen. But it would rock if (for what I perceive will be the coda) for him to team up with some of the characters that inspired the first movie.
Nest pa?

I can't believe there is more worry about Lucas's input as producer than relief and faith with Spielberg directing. I will bet a year's pay that, with Spielberg making the critical creative decisions, this will not, cannot, be another PHANTOM MENACE...

The big question is will Connery come out of retirement to be in this?
