from Empire on line by way of AOTS .......... Lucas approves the Indy 4 draft script
George, you're supposed to be on holiday. But maybe it's true - you can't keep a good man down. No sooner has Revenge Of The Sith leapt to the $200 million mark in damn near record time, than Mr Lucas has headed back to the Skywalker Ranch and taken a look through Jeff Nathanson's new draft of the fourth Indiana Jones movie.
And Lucas likes what he sees. Apparently, both he and screenwriter Nathanson went over the script together, also using notes from Steven Spielberg. The only missing part of the puzzle now is Harrison Ford, who is still yet to sign on for the project – and isn't going to until he sees the script. Fair enough.
Of course, there's still the issue of a start date for the film too, what with Steve having that whole 'most prolific point of his career' thing going on. He's throwing the final lick of varnish onto War Of The Worlds as we speak, then he's heading over to do his untitled Munich Olympics movie, then the Abraham Lincoln / American Civil War film to be going on with, so how Indy 4 is going to roll a digital camera with him behind before late 2006 - or Spielberg exhausts himself - is anyone's guess.
