AceShowbiz - "Indiana Jones V" is gathering steam again. The latest update is unearthed by Variety in a new article about an online filmmaking course offered by three Hollywood cinematographers including Janusz Kaminski. The site notes he will next be working on the fifth "Jones" movie.
It's really no surprise that Kaminski will be involved in the project given that he has made more than a dozen films with Steven Spielberg including "Schindler's List" and "Saving Private Ryan". The interesting thing is that "Indiana Jones V" is mentioned as his next project, meaning the film may come sooner than later.
Talks about the fifth film have actually been going on for years, and they intensify after Walt Disney Studios owns the rights to the franchise following LucasFilm takeover in 2012. Harrison Ford who first played the fame archeologist in 1981's "Raiders of the Lost Ark" has expressed in multiple occasions his interest to reprise his iconic role.
However, Ford reportedly has to pass the torch to a younger star if the long-developed "Indiana Jones V" is not coming out until a certain date. The studio is rumored considering an idea to reboot the story with a fresh face in the lead role. Bradley Cooper is allegedly the top candidate to play the title character should the adventure movie franchise follow the James Bond films route.
