The Prolonged Gestation of Indiana Jones 5

There have been rumours swirling around Tinseltown about a fifth instalment of the franchise since 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull. However, it was then confirmed by Kathleen Kennedy that work had begun on the production of Indiana Jones 5 back in 2015.

Since then, the film has been back and forth with a couple of delays and behind the scenes altercations. Now it finally seems like the film is back on track and in production. Fans can expect that casting and more will be coming within the next few months.

Indiana Jones 5 is set for release on July 8, 2021. Are you ready for another journey, or do you think you’ve had enough? Let us know in the comments below.
