Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal

[SFI]

George Lucas, Produzent und Schöpfer der "Indiana Jones"-Triologie sowie "Star Wars", hat den Drehstart für das neue Abenteuer des Archeologen für 2007 angekündigt. Seit Jahren halten sich Gerüchte über einen vierten Film und Lucas und sein Partner Steven Spielberg hatten diese Pläne auch bestätigt. Jetzt wurde es so konkret wie noch nie.

Lucas war die Ehre zuteil geworden als Grand Marshal die alljährliche Rose Parade in Pasadena, Kalifornien, anzuführen. Am 1. Januar wird er den Umzug leiten, was in den Jahren zuvor bereits Celebritys wie William Shatner, Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra und Komponist John Williams getan hatten. Während den Vorbereitungen zu diesem Anlass sprach Lucas mit einem Journalisten der Associated Press und liess die Bombe platzen: Im Mai 2008 soll "Indiana Jones" in die Kinos zurückkehren.


Details zur Produktions verriet Lucas nur wenige. Er verspicht einen "phantastischen Film, den bisher Besten [..] mit sehr interessanten Mysterien und es wird auch ein Charakterstück sein". Drehen will er unter anderem in Los Angeles, über die exotischen Abenteuerschauplätze und die Story verriet er allerdings nichts. Auch verschwiegen wurde, wer ausser Harrison Ford zur Besetzung gehören wird.

Dass sich die Herren Lucas, Spielberg und Ford geeinigt haben, dürfte nicht nur die Fans auf der ganzen Welt freuen. Auch das Studio Paramount, das den Vertrieb des bei Lucasfilm und Spielbergs Amblin Entertainment produzierten Filmes übernehmen wird, dürfte begeistert sein, dass das milliardenschwere Franchise um den abenteuerlustigen Archeologen zu neuem Leben erweckt wird.

Here are two Indiana Jones facts for you.
Firstly, it is Indiana Jones and the City of Gods. Definitely. This was the title of an older script, not the new one - but it is going to be used as the title of the film, in place of the title on the front page of the new script. Not sure why, but it is apparently 100% true,
Secondly, Shia LeBouef is in. For sure. No idea why he's been rocking the boat, but he's in.
[EDIT: And now I'm hearing that Gong Li is in. Quieter voices have suggested Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington too, but the boys don't seem to check out at all]
I received a tip-off about the title and LeBouef facts together, and have been able to confirm each separately. All three folk involved really would know too. So I'm confident, and happy to take it to the bank. I'm happy for you to remember me getting so loud and clear on this one, prepared to risk the egg on my face because, frankly, I don't doubt either of these facts at all.
[EDIT: A pretty good source has now suggested that Teotihuacan is involved. Does that clear anything up for any of us?]
[EDIT: Hollywood Elsewhere are also positing the involvement of Gong Li. Interesting]
[EDIT: Okay, got to the bottom of the Gong Li mystery. The idea was first posited on a Gong Li messageboard and picked up by a few folk. One of them mailed me, another one of them was Jeffrey Wells at Hollywood Elsewhere. No matter what he says, this seems to be the origin of his info - I don't believe he read the article he mentions at all.
The messageboard have been rumouring Gong Li's involvement for two years, but a lot has changed in the Indy camp since then.
Truthfully? She's (at least in talks) to star in The Mummy 3. I feel sincerely stupid for not noticing this earlier, but it has been pointed out to me - very kindly - and it was suddenly so obvious. She really is likely for the third Mummy film - even while Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz aren't]

Paramount Pictures hat Ray Winstone für Indiana Jones 4 verpflichtet. Im Gegensatz zu Cate Blanchett gilt das Film-Alter-Ego von Winstone als sicher: Er wird den Part von Indy's Sidekick übernehmen. Ray Winstone spielte zuletzt den kriminellen Partner von Jack Nicholson im Oscar-prämierten Departed: Unter Feinden und ist demnächst in Robert Zemecki's Beowulf wieder auf der Leinwand zu sehen.

Die Dreharbeiten für Indiana Jones 4 beginnen im Juni in Los Angeles. Weltweiter Kinostart von Spielbergs Abenteuerstreifen ist der 22. Mai 2008.

Nach wochenlangen Gerüchten und Vermutungen äußert sich der geistige Vater des coolen Archäologen höchstpersönlich.

Es war ein besonderes Osterei für alle Indy-Fans: Kurz vor dem Fest äußerte sich George Lucas gegenüber USA Today Klartext zum kommenden vierten Teil der Indiana-Jones-Reihe. Dabei erwies sich Lucas einmal mehr als wahrer Meister der Heimlichtuerei, wenn es um eine aktuelle Filmproduktion geht. Immerhin gab es folgende Fakten:
Der vollständige Titel des neuen Abenteuers wird erst mit der Veröffentlichung des Trailers bekanntgegeben. Sollte das Internet dem Filmemacher nicht vorher einen Strich durch die Rechnung machen, wird es zum amerikanischen Thanksgiving-Fest soweit sein. Für die Beteiligung Cate Blanchetts (Cynamite berichtete über ihre Besetzung) habe sich Steven Spielberg höchstpersönlich ausgesprochen. "Sie war, wen mein Regisseur wollte, und ich füge mich immer meinem Regisseur", so Lucas wörtlich. Zum Thema Sean Connery und seine Rückkehr als Indys Vater hieß es nur, dass noch nichts unterzeichnet sei. "Wir versuchen es noch immer." Auch die Drehorte sollen vorerst geheim bleiben. Verraten wurde nur, dass u.a. ein großer Wasserfall eine Rolle spielen soll.
So richtig viel offenbarte Lucas letztlich also nicht. Das Interview macht aber immerhin ein weiteres Mal deutlich, dass die heiß ersehnte Fortsetzung der Abenteuerreihe tatsächlich in Arbeit ist und bald schon Realität wird.

Titel: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

[SFI]

Seven months after calling his work on the then-untitled "Indiana Jones 4" script "a waste of a year," director Frank Darabont told MTV News that he’s moved on from earlier resentment. His script, favored by Spielberg, was ultimately rejected by George Lucas.
"I don’t live by the grudge. I don’t hold a grudge. Life is way too short for that," he said. "Let’s chalk it up to professional disappointment. There’s not some deep unhealed wound or feud going on."
And yet, to listen to Darabont, one gets the impression that there very well might soon be a feud of sorts - over credit. Insisting that he still hasn’t read "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls" (scripted by "Spider-Man" writer David Koepp), Darabont again indicated that there may be more than a passing resemblance to his efforts, echoing statements he made to MTV in August.
This time, though, he thinks it might wind up in arbitration.
"I haven’t read the script, [but] at a certain point I will because I’m sure there will be an arbitration over writing credits," he revealed. "I keep hearing from people who are near the production and they keep saying, ‘You know, they’re using more of your ideas here than you may have thought.’"
One such idea, however, was not Shia LaBeouf’s role as Indy’s son.
"That’s a whole new element that’s been brought in. Shia? I don’t remember writing that character," Darabont said. "I did suggest to Steven that he cast John Hurt in this movie and I’m delighted that Mr. Hurt is a part of it. It’s not entirely the role I suggested him for - but I did suggest him."
But while Darabont the businessman and writer may face off against Indy in arbitration, Darabont the fan says he couldn’t be happier to see the whip-wielding hero make a triumphant comeback.
"I know Steven Spielberg is not going to disappoint us. He’s going to make a great movie," Darabont praised. "As a fan, I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I hope it turns out great."

Naja, taufrisch sieht er nicht mehr aus. Aber ich freu mich trotzdem auf den Film.

Interview mit dem Produzenten:

He told us why Steven and Harrison Ford felt that now was the time to return to Indy. "It's kind of been out there in the air, but we never had the right script, and we kind of put it on the backburner and then back in 2000, we all went to the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award for Harrison. George and Harrison and Steven and I and Kathy were all backstage all dressed up and we were looking at clips from the movies and we thought, ‘God, those were really fun. Maybe we oughta really focus on trying to do another one." And that's what happened. David Koepp came up with a great script finally, and we're done shooting and now in the editing process. It's pretty amazing."
"What we've done is we moved it from the '40s to the ‘50s so we're acknowledging that everybody's 10 or 15 years older and it plays into the story," he told us when asked about how things would be different from the earlier movies. "We're not trying to hide that Harrison's older, but we have Shia LaBeouf coming in as his sidekick, so we've got a young element. The best way to describe the movie is that it's an Indiana Jones movie. It's got all the style and elements of the old movies, and we're not really trying to do anything different."

Interview mit John Hurt:

How much action does your character see?
Well, I'm all in the second half. I'm one of what I called the Famous Five. You know, [from Enid Blyton's ripping adventure series] "The Famous Five came home tired but happy." [laughs] There was Harrison. There was the wonderful Shia LaBeouf, who also was very impressive. He's very perceptive, smart, again not at all cocky - none of those precocious, unfortunate traits. There was Cate [Blanchett] - ah, no, she wasn't in the Famous Five. It was Karen [Allen], me, Harrison, Shia, and Ray Winstone, who is one of the Famous Five but dodgy. [...]
Are they doing it the old-fashioned way as opposed to relying on CGI?
They shot as much as they possibly could, but they had some massive blue screens. There will be CGI, but it's based on a lot of the stuff that we shot, so it's not pure CGI. It's overlayed and so on. Steven does shoot as much as he possibly can and that's impressive. I mean we shot on five major Hollywood studios. We shot at Downey, Sony, Paramount, Warners, and Universal, either in their studios or the outside lots. We'd do two days here, then trot off and do a week there and then back to this one, while the other sets were being prepared. And the sets were fantastic, full of moving parts and things that all worked. You suddenly realized that you're almost a puppet. You come on and do your bit, and then you're off to the next one.
And how was Peru?
We never went to Peru in the end! They didn't dare, unfortunately. So we were on the lot the whole time, although we did go to Hawaii for a couple of weeks. But that's not Peru!
