FAQ for
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

Indy: "The legend says that a crystal skull was stolen from a mythical city in the Amazon, supposedly built out of solid gold. It's guarded by the living dead, but who ever returns the skull to the lost city temple will be given control of its power."

Irina: "You will help us find it. A simple yes will do" "Well, we will do this the old fashioned way"

Indy to Mac: "Put your hands down will ya? You're embarrassing us"

Indy to Mutt: "Don't touch anything"

Mutt to Indy: "Get on" (in the motorcycle)

Indy to Mutt: "Come on genius"

Mutt to Marion in the car: "What is he going to do now?"

Marion to Mutt: "I don't think he plans that far ahead" (wink to Raiders)

Indy with bazooka: "I would cover my ears if I were you."

**Back in: July 22, 2002, Harrison Ford tried to debunk the rumor that Indy will have a son in "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull "while talking to Chicago Sun-Times. Here's what Cindy Pearlman reported:

Indy's no daddy: Don't call it "Indiana Jones: The Babymaker". Harrison Ford told this column that the much-awaited next installment of "Indiana Jones" ("Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull") will not feature him training his screen son to take over the franchise. The 60-year-old Chicago native gave us a look of mock horror and said, "Hey, there's only one son in these movies and I'll always be Sean Connery's little boy!"

Now in 2007 strong words of confirmation report... http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117960739.html?categoryid=13&cs=1

And Product tie-ins: http://s244.photobucket.com/albums/gg35/punkjumpu/?action=view¤t=indy4_confirmation.jpg

http://www.amazon.com/ has recently started to sell some book tie ins for children related to movie. The synopsis of the books mentions charactor names Ox and Mutt William. Mutt seems to refer to Shia.

This is the info that used to be on the site: http://www.shialabeouf.us/gallery/displayimage.php?album=188&pos=5 http://www.us.imdb.com/title/tt0367882/board/thread/91467474

The name or word, "Mutt" can be read on his leather jacket during their costumed interview at Comic-Con; also in another recent publicity photo (similiar to Indiana Jones being named after a dog perhaps).

According to a upcoming toy/action figure list, there's a Mutt Williams listed as well. http://www.theprivateuniverse.co.uk/cgi-bin/showarticle.pl?section=news&articleid=2464

Most recently Steven Spielberg was asked about Shia's role: Q: George Lucas tends to write about fathers and sons, and you often write about mothers and sons. The new Indy movie, I assume, is another father-son story.

A: I wouldnt say its a father-son story. The new Indy movie is about a great quest, an amazing quest and thats all I'm gonna say. [Laughs]

http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/2008/02/spielberg_qanda200802?currentPage=4

A 'Cheez-It' also reports Shia's name is Mutt: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y289/yellowshoveldot/indy002.jpg

According to this recent information, http://www.theraider.net/news/fullstory_indy4.php?id=696, and all the above leaked product tie-ins, Shia is indeed playing, Mutt Williams- long lost son of Indiana Jones.

MPAA mandated Trailer alterations aside... 10.10.07 "...the effects work was approximately seventy percent practical and thirty percent CGI, although the computer-generated work will be obvious."- Steven Spielberg http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=6127&count=0

In an interview with producer Frank Marshall, we learned that "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" might not be very reliant on CGI magic. Here's what Frank Marshall had to say:

"Steven Spielberg is very aware of the process and we're not cheating with CG (computer graphics) at all," Frank Marshall said. "It keeps the B movie feel."

This would also include the nasty 'CGI Whip Insurance Mandate Rumor' started by British Tabloids.

Apparently there were some minor adjustments that they made, for the MPAA approved US general trailer viewing audiences, to remove some weapons.

This French video describes all the differences between the US and International versions as well. http://www.dailymotion.com/Rialeb/video/7386668

This idea started when one of the filming sets was rumored to be 'Area 51'. Even though there is heavy Alien Lore surrounding this US location; it is also merely a Goverment Aircraft Testing Facility. Indy battling 'little green men' was also the basis of a faux Indy 4 Script that circulated the internet several years ago.

Recently, rumors of Spielberg using some of his Alien props from Close Encounters in this film- have been making the rounds on the internet.

This could be just like the "Star Wars" nods in the other films; having nothing to do with the plot of the film.

Most recently Frank Marshall mentioned this concerning the Crystal Skulls: ""The theory is they are shaped by higher powers or alien powers or came from another world, or an ancient Mayan civilization had the powers."

George Lucas also reported this in a recent Vanity Fair interview: "What it is that made it perfect was the fact that the MacGuffin I wanted to use and the idea that Harrison Ford would be 20 years older would fit. So that put it in the mid-50s, and the MacGuffin I was looking at was perfect for the mid-50s. I looked around and I said, Well, maybe we shouldn't do a 30s serial, because now were in the 50s. What is the same kind of cheesy-entertainment action movie, what was the secret B movie, of the 50s? So instead of doing a 30s Republic serial, were doing a B science-fiction movie from the 50s. The ones Im talking about are, like, "Creature from the Black Lagoon," "The Blob," and "The Thing." So by putting it in that context, it gave me a way of approaching the whole thing. "

Roswell, New Mexico has some kind of reference in the film showing up on a sort of 'magnetic' box in the teaser. http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9278/indy4zu6.jpg

We don't actually know for sure about anything alien yet until we see the film.

Some recent leaked product tie-ins reveal this SPOILER: http://img236.imageshack.us/my.php?image=cee612su4.jpg

Frank Marshall revealed Indy's 'travel plans': "New Mexico, Connecticut, Mexico City and the jungles of Peru."

These are also very likely going to be three of the major scenes in the movie. (portrayed in LEGO versions) http://www.brickset.com/detail.aspx?Set=7625-1 http://www.brickset.com/detail.aspx?Set=7626-1 http://www.brickset.com/detail.aspx?Set=7627-1

And here is one scene in non toy format showing some kind of temple. http://www.theraider.net/films/indy4/gallery/screens/ij4_04.jpg

We know about some college campus scenes which will include some sort of chase with Indy and Shia on a motorcyle. There have also been reports of a 'River Chase' scene.

This new pic suggests a nice action scene as well. http://bp0.blogger.com/_XOd9319e0dw/R6DIF8VrPuI/AAAAAAAAAwM/fvfpt065hks/s1600-h/indynewsopener.jpg

This site keeps tabs on all the latest product tie-ins and publicity mag photos deatiling scenes from the movie as well: http://kotcs.blogspot.com/

The offical John Williams score track listing does mention "City of Gold" as well as the new trailer; and if you look at the top picture of the mask on http://www.indianajones.com/site/index.html and then do some research here:http://www.novica.com/itemdetail/index.cfm?pid=125453; it's the same mask.

We can see there might be elements of both the City of Gold and the Fountain of Youth in the film.

George Lucas talks about the Crystal Skull relic 06/10/07, 7:40pm EST

Filmmaker George Lucas recently admitted in a video clip by http://www.mtv.com/ that he has been obsessed with these antique crystal skulls ever since he began doing research for The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles TV-series that premiered in 1992. Here follows an excerpt from the http://www.mtv.com/ article:

"We did The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, and in the process of that, one of the scripts we were working on was about a crystal skull. I became fascinated with it there," George Lucas revealed Wednesday on the red carpet for the American Film Institute's 40th anniversary at the ArcLight. "We've been through lots of different versions the last 14 years, with five different writers. There's just a lot of aspects that seem to fit into our kind of a movie."

"I think this is actually better, it's up there with the Ark of the Covenant," he declared of the fourth film's "McGuffin" (a term coined by Alfred Hitchcock to describe an object which drives a film's plot). "Sankara Stones and the Holy Grail were a little tough, but I think this time we've really got a great one."

George Lucas emphasized that "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" is shaping up to be the best Indy flick since the first one, even going so far as to call "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" tonally most like "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

Believers of the "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" attribute all sorts of abilities to them; ranging from the skulls being psychic amplifiers to tools of death to repositories of ancient knowledge.

http://www.theraider.net/news/fullstory_indy4.php?id=335

Even though this doesn't seem to be an established lore or myth type artifact; such as the Ark of the Covenant or the Holy Grail-There has been literature written on the subject and actual Mayan/Aztec artifacts of this nature found. Which also explains why Aztec/Mayan pyramids have been placed at Indiana Jones fan conventions, Comic-Con, etc. This is an interesting documentary on the subject, which also mentions Atlantis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwrGQuFyRDQ Also these reports: http://skepdic.com/crystalskull.html

This is an amateur video of the ride in Disney Tokyo of the same name. Take this interpretation of with a grain of salt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDuasAQMynQ

George Lucas told Empire in August 2006: "I discovered a MacGuffin. I told the guys about it and they were a little dubious about it, but it's the best one we've ever found. ... Unfortunately, it was a little too 'connected' for the others. They were afraid of what the critics would think. They said, 'Can't we do it with a different MacGuffin? Can't we do this?' and I said 'No.' So we pottered around with that for a couple of years. And then Harrison Ford really wanted to do it and Steven Spielberg said, 'Okay.' I said, 'We'll have to go back to that original MacGuffin and take out the offending parts of it and we'll still use that area of the supernatural to deal with it.'"

Another popular rumor: "The crystal skulls turn out to be alien skulls, underneath a Mayan or Aztec pyramid that takes off and thus reveals itself to be a mothership of sorts." http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3221&Itemid=99

Most recently Frank Marshall mentioned this concerning the Crystal Skulls: ""The theory is they are shaped by higher powers or alien powers or came from another world, or an ancient Mayan civilization had the powers."

LEGO has decided to represent them in this strange manner. http://toyfair08.asmzine.com/gallery/lego/indiana-jones/slides/IMG_9366.html

The crystal skulls have also appeared in several other movies; including "The Phantom," "House II: The Second Story" and "The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines."

Confirmed reports are that she will be playing a 'Russian villain' named, "Agent Irena Spalko". http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2007-12-09-indiana-jones_N.htm

This is a picture of her character. http://www.worstpreviews.com/media.php?id=159&image=8&place=photos&place2=shots

Here is some video of her character, during a Vanity Fair photo shoot. http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/video/2008/indianajones_video200802

The Dutch Federation for Cinematography (NFC) published a schedule with the running times of several films to be released in Holland. This might be accurate: 2 hours and 3 minutes. http://www.nfcstatistiek.nl/rel.htm

Early test screenings say the movie clocks in at a little over 2 hours and 20 minutes, this is still prior to it being chopped up for Cannes and its later theatrical release http://hollywood-elsewhere.com/2008/04/140_minutes_plu.php

The British Board of Film Classification has listed a run time of two hours, two minutes and 20 seconds for the uncut UK release. http://www.bbfc.co.uk/website/Classified.nsf/e8ea0df3a881175480256d58003cb570/3cd388e14332242380257441005c74e5?OpenDocument].

Watch "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" again. The Knight told Indy after he drank from the Grail in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." "...the Grail cannot pass beyond the Great Seal. That is the boundary and the price of immortality" The old Knight that they encountered, had obviously been granted immortality, only by staying put.

So short answer, no.

More needless discussion has been debated about the story of the other two Knights that walked into the desert, "after dieing of extreme old age." whereas this is still irrevelent to immortality, it could be noted that the Grail could] merely grant good health and also grant some measure of lasting healing power once you leave the area pass the seal; noticed in the disappearing bullet wound of Sr. Or, since people did not live long during the middle ages, the 'extreme old age' of the knights could refer to anything pass thirty years of age.

But, will Indy be in good health and up to his death defying adventurous acts in this film? Yes.

It is from the soundtrack to 'Children of Dune' by Brian Tyler, and it is track number 4, called 'The Revolution'.

"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."

September 9th, 2007 Shia anounced at the http://www.mtv.com/ VMA Awards that the final title will be: "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?vid=174513

Even though George Lucas does have a reputation for renaming his films such as Revenge of the Jedi and using pseudo working titles such as Blue Harvest and Jar Jar's Big Adventure, this has been confirmed by George Lucas and Steven Spielberg as being the final title of the film. http://indianajones.com/site/index.html

This is not a hoax. http://www.mtv.com/ is a Viacom company owned by Paramount, so given Shia's involvement to bring in a younger demographic of Indy fans, ('the http://www.mtv.com/ generation?') it makes some sense that he made the anouncement this way.

Other working title's used before "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" were: "Indiana Jones and the City of Gods," "Indiana Jones and the Destroyer of Worlds," "Indiana Jones and the Fourth Corner of the Earth," "Indiana Jones and the Lost City of Gold," and "Indiana Jones and the Quest for the Covenant."

http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2007/09/indiana_jones_secrecy_foiled_b.php http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlLA/studio_film/indiana_jones_spoilers_leaked_67724.asp

Short and simple, he was an extra that broke his NDC (non-disclosure contract).

Although, since he never had a copy of the script, and the fact that the only plot points he verheard were: "Shia is Ford's son", "Karen Allen is in the film", "Russians capture Indy and dance around the fire, and they interrogate him (tieing him to a chair) and ask him about a Crucifix Skull"... basically the leak consisted of elements that were already known and elements that aren't true.

A spokesman for Steven Spielberg has been quoted in saying that "he (Tyler) will never work in this town again." The natural consequence of breaking a NDC.

The lawsuit against Nelson has been settled.

George Lucas came up with the McGuffin (the crystal skull), and is credited with writing the story. He also served as Executive Producer. According to Steven Spielberg, George Lucas was on set for a total of nine days. Although George Lucas suggested Steven Spielberg shoot the movie with digital, Steven Spielberg used film, as he has on all of his previous movies. http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=6127&count=0

Apparently they have been only filming in the US, most filming was shot in Hawaii. Here are some revealing set pictures. (might contain spoilers) http://www.hfm2.com/photopost1/showgallery.php/cat/932

This translates in the film as: New Mexico, Connecticut, Mexico City and the jungles of Peru. http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2007-12-09-indiana-jones_N.htm

They have now wrapped principal photography. http://www.indianajones.com

Press release - Jan. 2, 2007 George Lucas, Harrison Ford and I are all very excited. We feel that the script was well worth the wait. We hope it delivers everything you'd expect from our history with Indiana Jones. - Steven Spielberg -

David Koepp's Credits: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0462895/

He comments on the writing: "I hope its along the lines of the first one, he said. Its certainly not as dark as the second one and its certainly not as humor driven as the third one. Hopefully it will have its own place [but] its closest to [Raiders]." http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2007/12/05/indiana-jones-iv-writer-speaks-youve-just-got-to-hope-to-god-you-dont-screw-up/

No. Sean Connery is retired as of 2005 from acting. He confirmed on the official website of Indiana Jones that he was tempted to reprise the role.

"I get asked the question so often, I thought it best to make an announcement. I thought long and hard about it and if anything could have pulled me out of retirement it would have been an Indiana Jones film. I love working with Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, and it goes without saying that it is an honor to have Harrison Ford as my son. But in the end, retirement is just too damned much fun."

The official website homepage does portray a crate with a very similar serial number to the serial number put on the crate holding the ark at the end of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and a large prop display of the ark in full size and another display of the ark in miniature on top of a Mayan type Pyramid appeared this year at comic-con with no explanation. But nothing has been confirmed if the ark does play a role in this film at all.

The official title has been anounced- "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull;" does not seem relative to anything Biblical; however we don't know for sure yet.

Some more new information/rumor talks about rebuilding/filming a 'warehouse set' similiar to "Raiders of the Lost Ark." http://www.aintitcool.com/node/34218

Some new promo pics show a similiar warehouse type setting as well. http://bp3.blogger.com/_XOd9319e0dw/R3vCC_8XSeI/AAAAAAAAAsM/HSDaT5MuCs0/s1600-h/INDY402.jpg

The Trailer shows an action sequence in a warehouse very similiar to the one at the end of "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Though this may be a fan service and instead retrieving another artifact, as a magnetised crate marked "Roswell 1947" is shown.

Jim Broadbent plays Dean Stanforth.

According to a Dark Horizons interview :

"I'm Indiana's academic colleague at Yale," Broadbent revealed. "I'm his friend and colleague - there's a couple of my scenes to go."

http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=5848&count=0

IESB posted a report that talked about both Shia LaBeouf and Harrison Ford signing on for more "Indiana Jones" films. In fact, Shia LaBeouf was rumored to be under contract for three more, while Harrison Ford was set to do two more, to round off the trilogy.

Now, http://www.mtv.com/ News has checked in with John Singh, director of publicity for Lucasfilm, who explained that "That's purely a rumor. Idle chatter among Internet fans."

Most are not convinced that John Singh is being completely truthful. There was the sound of finality in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." Even though it sounds a bit ridiculous for Harrison Ford to keep making Indy films at the age of 65, studios are notorious for locking in their actors, just in case the film is a big success. http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=4908

Most recently in a Vanity Fair interview Steven Spielberg had this to say:

Q: Is that leaving room open for another one? A: Oh, I dont know. I havent even thought about that. Im still in the cutting room. I cant even think beyond the next cut. http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/2008/02/spielberg_qanda200802?currentPage=3

In an interview recently in Entertainment Weekly George Lucas does not rule out a fifth Indy film...

EW: Are you going to do another Indy film after this one? GL: "That I don't know. We do these one at a time and we do it purely for the fun of it, which means if we have too many things going on - Steven Spielberg has a couple of movies going on, he's got Chicago Seven, he's got all this stuff backed up for years- who knows?

Harrison Ford tells USA Today that "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" might not be the character's final film appearance - if George Lucasand Harrison Ford can get get their asses in gear and have a fifth "Indiana Jones" film ready soon - rather than in another twenty years - Harrison Ford says he'd consider playing the Man in the Hat again. http://mymoviesdatabase.blogspot.com/2008/04/ford-would-consider-fifth -indiana-jones.html

The odds of Marcus Brody's return are unlikely due to the death of the actor (Denholm Elliott) who portrayed him. However, most likely as a reference to Marcus, "Brody's Barbershop" has been identified in a production shot of a set for the fourth film. Additionally, a portrait of Brody will hang in the hall of the archeology department at Marshall College.

Although this might be a matter of opinion, here's a quote fromHarrison Ford himself that says it all (dated from November 2002): "What astonishes me," Harrison Ford says, "is that people can't imagine Indiana Jones aging at all. Why expect any character to be frozen in time? The appeal of Indiana Jones isn't his youth but his imagination, his resourcefulness... His physicality is a big part of it, especially in the way he gets out of tight situations. But it's not all hitting people and falling from high places. My ambition in action is to have the audience look straight in the face of a character and not at the back of a capable stunt man's head. I hope to continue to do that, no matter how old I get."

Producer Kathleen Kennedy backs him up with a quote that was recorded in July 2005: "No, I don't think so. Certainly we're not writing the script as though he's twenty years old. You know, Sean Connery spent a lot of time in the Bond role and whatnot. I think its great that we can go make another Indiana Jones movie and Indy can be a little older. I think playing with that is a good thing."

And in October 2006 Harrison Ford said the following during a press conference: "I feel fit to continue and bring the same physical action."

Total Film magazine asked Harrison Ford (in October 2002) what he would do when Steven Spielberg decided Harrison Ford was too old for the part. Here's what Harrison Ford answered: "If Steven Spielberg and George Lucas tried to replace me, first I'd tell them to go fuck themselves. Then I'd kill them!"

10th October 2007: With filming almost wrapped Steven Spielberg remarked how great it was to have Harrison Ford back and how amazed he was that he did the majority of his own stunts. He said looking back to the last film, which was eighteen years ago, he couldn't tell the difference between the action star from then to now because he's still that good.

Russians have been confirmed by Steven Spielberg. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=38211

This time instead of Nazi's Indiana Jones will be up against the Soviet Union.

No. John Rhys-Davies will not return as Sallah.

1957: http://www.nhregister.com/site/news.cfm newsid=18345975&BRD=1281&PAG=461&dept_id=590581&rfi=6 http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/2008/02/lucas_qanda200802?currentPage=4

Also, it takes place nighteen years after the events in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," acknowledging to the real-life time span between the two movies.

For long it has been rumored and assumed John Hurt would play Abner Ravenwood because that's how IMDB listed the actor though IMDB is not an official source. It was listed on the official site that this is true but, it was taken down.

Ray Winstone will now play the character George McHale, aka Mac. Spielberg revealed he'll be "an unethical rival archaeologist." http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2007-12-09-indiana-jones_N.htm Frank Marshall added that Mac and Indy ""are friends, but the natural forces of greed take over at some point".

With the return of Marion and the report that Cate Blanchet will be a villain; it seems likely Indy's flame this time around will be Marion Ravenwood again. We, obviously, don't know for sure as of yet. http://youtube.com/watch?v=3tBl6RaIcVE

According the film's official website, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has been rated PG-13 in the United States for Adventure Violence and Scary Images. The film has recently been rated 12A in the UK for moderate action violence and scary scenes

July 26th it was officially announced at 2007 San Diego Comic-Con. http://youtube.com/watch?v=3tBl6RaIcVE

Yes, he can be seen in the teaser. He will be playing a henchman of Cate Blanchett's character. Actors fluent in the Russian language were cast as Russian soldiers, so their accents would be authentic.

It's a cute rumour since she is now Mrs. Spielberg, previously playing the female lead in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom." In April 2002, George Lucas told that there is a scene in Indy 4 where a lot of Indy's ex-girlfriends show up, but they are not major characters. In August 2005, Kate Capshaw said she believes Willie Scott's going to be making an appearance too. Besides a framed photo appearing in Indiana's room set design, nothing has been officialy confirmed. http://www.theraider.net/films/indy4/cast_members.php

In June 2002 Harrison Ford said that the rumors about Calista Flockhart appearing in Indy 4 are false. But 3 years later, in August 2005, Kate Capshaw said that Calista Flockhart might join the cast of the fourth Indy film. Which role she could be taken or how big the part can be is unknown. http://www.theraider.net/films/indy4/cast_members.php

After six year of rumors that she would be in Indy 4 and play Indy's supposed daughter, George Lucas directly debunked this during a video interview with IESB.net in March 2007. http://iesb.net/index.php?option=com_xevidmegafx&Itemid=139&func=detail&id=259

George Lucas answered: "No. Absolutely not."

It's anybodys guess, some product placements connected to the film have suggested scorpions and ants. http://www.birthdaydirect.com/indiana-jones-game-p-15386.html?osCsid=4 835a131cecbce1ac8bcce08b07a0fb7 http://www.brickset.com/detail.aspx?Set=7626-1

The Score Track Listing also gives us some clues as well; including the above and, "Snake Pit".

Maybe... http://movieblog.ugo.com/index.php/movieblog/more/indy_update/

According to "Saturday Night Live," Shia will be hosting "Saturday Night Live" again on May 10th.

Temple of Doom - 1935, Raiders of the Lost Ark - 1936, The Last Crusade - 1938, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - 1957

The answer is yes according to this Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Spoilers. Before clicking through, do know it's a "Spoiler Page."
