'Indiana Jones' to Begin Filming in 2007
Dec 30, 1:02 AM EST

George Lucas said Friday that filming of the long-awaited "Indiana Jones" movie will begin next year. Harrison Ford, who appeared in the three earlier flicks, the last one coming in 1989, is set to star again. Lucas said he and Steven Spielberg recently finalized the script for the film.

"It's going to be fantastic. It's going to be the best one yet," the 62-year-old filmmaker said during a break from preparing for his duties as grand marshal of Monday's Rose Parade.

Exact film locations have not been decided yet, but Lucas said part of the movie will be shot in Los Angeles.

The fourth chapter of the "Indiana Jones" saga, which will hit theaters in May 2008, has been in development for over a decade with several screenwriters taking a crack at the script, but it only recently gained momentum.

Lucas kept mum about the plot, but said that the latest action flick will be a "character piece" that will include "very interesting mysteries."

"I think it's going to be really cool," Lucas said.

At the inaugural Rome Film Festival in October, the 64-year-old Ford said he was excited to team up with Lucas and Spielberg again for the fourth "Indiana Jones" installment. Ford said he was "fit to continue" to play the title role despite his age.

Ford played Indiana Jones in 1981's "Raiders of the Lost Ark," 1984's "Temple of Doom" and 1989's "The Last Crusade."

Lucas praised Ford for breathing life into his character.

"Mostly it's the charm of Harrison that makes it work," he said.

indiana jones is my absolute favorite trilogy.

but i'm a'scared of what they'll do with a fourth in this day and age. will linday lohan have a cameo? will he need a jive talkin' young urban sidekick? will he have to cuss??

i'm a'scared.

I just figured when he passed the 60 mark, another IJ movie was out of the question for Harrison. I agree, the first three are among my favorite movies - can watch them over and over and over. I've heard several stories about #4 over the years, but the sticking point seemed always to be the script. I can't wait to see what script finally cut the mustard.

Is someone going to put snakes in his colostomy bag as a prank?

i've got a working title for them:

indiana jones - oh no, my pills!

Them's fighting words, ladies.
I luvs me my Harrison
:D

Me too, but notice Lucas said it was going to be a "character piece" - not an action flick.

How much you want to bet he breaks a hip filming it?

I loved him too once, when he was Han Solo.

*sigh*

Oh no, Indiana Jones is waaaaay sexier than Han Solo!

I thought about him breaking something too - he loves to do his own stunts. But, he says he is in "fit condition" to do the film. I'll bet there will be lots less "action" stuff in this one though, but when I think about the 3rd IJ movie, it wasn't the action stuff I liked best - it was the character stuff - the chemistry between Indie and his father was palpable, and just as much fun as watching him being dragged behind a truck or hanging from a ladder on a steep cliff!
