>You have another Lucasfilm property, Indiana Jones, and Steven Spielberg has agreed to make a fifth film. Will there be an Indiana Jones universe, eventually, like Star Wars?
Not like Star Wars, no. But we hope … right now, we’re focused on a reboot, or a continuum and then a reboot of some sort.
>Reboot? You’ve got Harrison Ford for this movie, and then the presumption is there will be a younger …
Well, we’ll bring him back, then we have to figure out what comes next. That’s what I mean. It’s not really a reboot, it’s a boot — a reboot. I don’t know.
>THR has been using the term “requel” for these sequels that reboot the franchise.
Requel. (Laughs.) We [got] Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones in the film. But then what’s the direction? I’ve had discussions about what the direction is, [but] I don’t want to get into it.
>But you do see making more films?
Yes, I do. I don’t think it reaches the scale of the universe of Star Wars, but I see making more. It won’t be just a one-off.
>In the three months since Disney and its Lucasfilm subsidiary officially announced the development of Indiana Jones 5, there’s been some question as to what form the new film might take. Sure, we know that Steven Spielberg is returning to direct, that Harrison Ford will again play Indiana Jones, that the new film will arrive in July of 2019 – and now, that the Indiana Jones character will not die in the film. Also, John Williams is writing a new score, David Koepp is writing the script and George Lucas is involved in the film as (at least) a producer.
Sounds like they are going to Young Indiana Jones this movie, and have older Indy telling the stories of Younger Indy
