According to Variety, the Indiana Jones 4 script has been approved by Spielberg and Lucas. I guess the project really is moving along then.. :)


Meanwhile, Nathanson's draft for Indiana Jones 4 has apparently met with the approval of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg. But before Paramount can move forward, Harrison Ford still has to sign off on the script, and he hasn't yet read it.

The trade adds that with "Star Wars" off his plate, Lucas recently summoned Nathanson to his Bay Area headquarters, where they went over the draft. The screenwriter also got notes from Spielberg, who brought him into the mix after working with him on Catch Me if You Can and Terminal.

Scheduling Indiana Jones 4 for a 2006 start will be tricky for Spielberg, who next heads to Europe to shoot his untitled drama about the aftermath of the 1972 Munich Olympics for Universal and DreamWorks, and is expected to follow in January with a DreamWorks film about Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War, to star Liam Neeson.

Wow, a Spielberg Civil War pic with Liam as LIncoln. Sounds pretty cool. Don't mind waiting on Indy IV to see that get done.

They'd better get on with this, Ford isn't getting any younger at all! He's already into his 60's, how much longer can they expect the guy to remain in good shape for a tough physical role?

This is one series they should definitely stop at 3 movies, unless they take it in a totally different direction, but I don't really see that happening. I'm looking at this fourth one with some skepticism - could be fun, but I don't have high hopes for it.
