Lucasfilm on Indy post-IV: Interweb Rumor

According to the folks at Cinematical.com, Lucasfilm has denied having plans for furthering the Indiana Jones franchise after Indy IV, saying that such talk about a three-film contract for Harrison Ford and a four-film contract for Shia LeBeouf are just Internet rumor. In response, IESB.net, which broke the story, has fired back against the charges that it’s nothing but rumor..

Also, Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall speak about about filming in Hawaii and whether Harrison can still fit into his IndyWare.

Young Indy Chronicles coming to DVD in Oct.

Fans of Indiana Jones should mark their calendars for October 23, 2007 as the release date for the first of three DVD sets for the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (shown on TV in 1992-1993). Paramount Home Entertainment will release Volume 1 in October, with Volumes 2 and 3 released sometime later, raising hype for Indy IV. I was a big fan of the YIJC, as I was about his age when the show aired, taking Indy through many adventures around the world, and meeting historical figures during his travels.

And speaking of the fourth installment of the man with the hat and the whip, Rotten Tomatoes has some speculation as to the plot of Indy IV.
