Indiana Jones 5 Announced For 2019 With Harrison Ford & Steven Spielberg Returning

March 15, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Indiana-JonesEver since Indiana Jones & The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull there have been rumblings about another film outing for Indy (with many hoping another movie would be made just so the franchise didn’t go out with its underwhelming last installment). There have even been suggestions that Harrison Ford only agreed to make The Force Awakens if Disney promised to make Indy 5.

Now the House Of Mouse has announced that’s exactly what they’re doing, as it’s been revealed that Indiana Jones 5 will be released on July 19th, 2019. There’s no mention of George Lucas though, who was intimately involved in the earlier films and came up with all the stories. As with Star Wars, it’s likely he gave up creative control when he sold Lucasfilm, and if he’s involved at all it will be in a reduced capacity.

There’s also no mention of Shia Labeouf, and it seems unlikely he’ll be back as Mutt (to may people’s relief). Nor is there any info about the plot.

Here’s the full statement from Disney:

SPIELBERG AND FORD REUNITE AS INDIANA JONES RETURNS TO THEATERS JULY 19, 2019

Indiana Jones will return to the big screen on July 19, 2019, for a fifth epic adventure in the blockbuster series. Steven Spielberg, who directed all four previous films, will helm the as-yet-untitled project with star Harrison Ford reprising his iconic role. Franchise veterans Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall will produce.

“Indiana Jones is one of the greatest heroes in cinematic history, and we can’t wait to bring him back to the screen in 2019,” said Alan Horn, Chairman, The Walt Disney Studios. “It’s rare to have such a perfect combination of director, producers, actor and role, and we couldn’t be more excited to embark on this adventure with Harrison and Steven.”

Famed archaeologist and explorer Indiana Jones was introduced in 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark – one of AFI’s 100 Greatest American Films of All Time – and later thrilled audiences in 1984’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, 1989’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The four films have brought in nearly $2 billion at the global box office.

Disney Takes Over The Indiana Jones Franchise From Paramount

December 7, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

indiana-jones-harrison-fordIndIt was reported recently that Harrison Ford only agreed to appear in the new Star Wars movies if the now Disney owned Lucasfilm moved forward on another Indiana Jones movie – however the problem has been that Paramount still owned the rights to Indy, making things more difficult.

Now the way has been cleared as Walt Disney Studios has reached a distribution and marketing agreement for the Indiana Jones franchise. Paramount retains its rights to the original four films in the franchise, and they’ll also get a portion of the cash from any future instalments that are produced and released.

It’s a good deal for Paramount, as they’ve already made tens of million from a similar arrangement where Disney took over the distribution of Marvel movies that Paramount was set to release, allowing them to get cash for doing absolutely nothing, but also allow Disney complete control after they bought Marvel.

There’s been no official announcement about a fifth Indy movie, but it seems very likely not Disney has the rights.

Is Indiana Jones 5 Coming To Secure Harrison Ford For Star Wars 7?

October 30, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

harrison-fordHarrison Ford has made it clear he’d like to make a fifth Indiana Jones movie, but has seemed more ambivalent about returning to Star Wars. Now rumours suggest that in order to agree to become Han Solo once more, he’s got Lucasfilm to put Indy 5 into active development.

Nothing has been confirmed (and this may all turn out to be false) but Harrison Ford apparently wanted Disney to commit to making Indiana Jones 5 as a part of his Star Wars deal. Disney wasn’t prepared to sign up for that, but they have apparently agreed to develop a treatment for the next Indy sequel by the end of 2014 and, if all parties are satisfied with the story, they will move forward for a 2016 release.

Ford is also said to have approved his Han Solo character arc that stretches beyond Star Wars: Episode VII, and led to the actor agreeing to a multi-picture deal.

There are stumbling blocks to Indiana Jones 5, not least that Paramount Pictures owns the rights to that franchise, while Disney own Lucasfilm. While a co-production is possible, it’s not know if either studio is will to get in bed with the other.
