Starring Harrison Ford and with Spielberg directing. Comes out in 2019. Consider this… the dark side of having the Mouse expand inexorably into, as Slashfilm put it, “Star Wars and Marvel and Pixar and everything else that you love.”
If there is a bright side to any of this, it’s that Indiana Jones V would absolutely have to be a bridge movie to whatever new franchise Disney has planned. Slashfilm suggests one last hurrah; my wife argues that it makes more sense to Old Indy being used as a framing device to spin a tale about New Indy, back in the day. If this last part sounds like something out of Young Indiana Jones, well: it worked, didn’t it? …Sort of. At least, it only really failed because of the lack of money. And the Mouse is typically happy to spend a ton of money if it means getting a ton and a half back.
I am not looking forward to this movie. However I will keep an open mind.
I remember liking Young Indiana Jones… but I don’t remember anything else about it.
River Phoenix, prior to his decision to prove the James Dean curse on Hollywood is still in force.

River only did the movie. Another Youngster entirely did the series.
Huh. Guess Aruges’ point has more merit’n I’d credited ..

Please, no Shia LeBouef. I’ll be good.
Happily, Shia is probably too old. Even more happily, the character of Mutt was left sufficiently vague that another young actor could step in.

Terrifyingly, Jake Lloyd *might* be able to pull it off….

Sadly, Jake Lloyd’s post Menace experience was so fraught that the guy will need thousands of hours of psychotherapy to overcone it. Truth in Television.
Unlike Star trek which favored evens early on in the film franchise, Odd numbered entries are best in this series (small sample size) so five has that going for it…
