Shia knows what Indy 5 is about but he’s not telling

Despite what you might think about the fourth INDIANA JONES film – and let’s be honest, most of you don’t think very highly about it – a fifth INDIANA JONES film is in the works. And that doesn’t appear to just be happy internet rumors. Star Shia LaBeouf says they’ve already got a storyline mapped out for the potential project.

Says LaBeouf, “I got called into Steven’s office and he pitched a little bit to me and it sounds crazy, it sounds really cool.” (I’m glad he added the “really cool” part because honestly, KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL was crazy and not in a good way.) I’m also guessing that in addition to a briefing on INDIANA JONES 5, LaBeouf was “called into Steven’s office” to discuss the comments he made earlier this year about the quality of the fourth film and that “I love Steven…but when you drop the ball you drop the ball.”

LaBeouf refused to elaborate on what the pitch for INDIANA JONES 5 involved but he added that “they’re writing the script right now.” He also didn’t indicate who exactly was writing the script and whether those people are being kept far, far away from George Lucas.

LaBeouf is just starting his promotional tour for WALL STREET: MONEY NEVER SLEEPS so expect him to get a lot more questions about INDY 4 as well as TRANSFORMERS 3.
