« Today's News: Our Take
Sean Connery Has Lost His Indiana Jones
The fourth (and final, whispers Harrison Ford's back) Indiana Jones film, scheduled to start shooting this month, will not revisit the father-son relationship introduced in Last Crusade, if only because Sean Connery simply isn't up to it. "I thought long and hard about it, and if anything could have pulled me out of retirement, it would have been an Indiana Jones film," the 76-year-old actor says in a statement. "I love working with Steven [Spielberg] and George [Lucas], and it goes without saying that it is an honor to have Harrison as my son. But in the end, retirement is just too damned much fun."
And just like that, craft services' Metamucil budget gets reduced by half.

It's a good thing that he stepped out, I mean, that BenGay has got to be overpowering on the set already.

I also wish Sean would reconsider. I loved him in Indiana Jones, The Last Crusade. But the man is almost in his 80's, and Im so worried about Harrison's activity in this movie. But all I can say this movie better be good. Im such a die hard Indiana Jones fan.

Well, I guess it's Indy's turn to say, "I've lost him."

Too Funny, Matt. "Damn you, Trebek"! I'm still laughing....I love those Jeopardy/SNL skits....
Anyways, I'm really looking forward to Indy 4! I hope it's good.

Maybe Sean Connery can do a voice over to a stunt double. He has a great voice that will be missed.
