Shallah not in Indie 4

Posted by: Michael

Shallah the loveable chubby sidekick for Indiana Jones will not be returning for Indie 4 and frankly its dissapointing. His character played by John Rhys-Davies is one of my favorites. CinemaFusion says, Quote:

â€œSeems he has not been asked to be in Indy 4 or even approached about it. From the little information he had about the film he had been told through a third party that the character of Sallah had been written out of Indy 4 in favour of a younger cast.â€

Also reported by us earlier, after so many internet rumors it has finally been confirmed that Shia LaBeouf will appear alongside Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones 4. Unfortunately however there is no announcement regarding what role he will have. Obviously he will play a sidekick of some kind that will probably also provide some comic relief as well. With Steven Spielberg directing and David Koepp working on the screenplay this one promises to shine when it hits theaters on May 22nd, 2008. Shooting is scheduled to begin in L.A. this June and will film in other distant "locations".

Sixteen rumor-filled years after the third entry in the Indiana Jones saga, the fourth film finds series regulars Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg, and George Lucas returning along with Sean Connery, who was introduced as Henry Jones, Sr. in 1989's Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade.

Following the continuing adventures of an aging Indiana Jones in the 1950s, the film finds Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption) assuming screenwriting duties on the first draft this time around, delivering a script based on an original idea by Lucas.
