Like it or not, Indiana Jones will be seeing a return to the big screen next year.
Here's what we do know.
-Steven Spielberg is directing. David Koepp wrote the screenplay. George Lucas is producing and wrote the story.
-The film does not have an "official" title yet, although Indiana Jones and the City of the Gods is heavily rumored.
-Filming began on June 18th, and it will be released May 22nd.
-It is set in 1957.
-Harrison Ford (duh) returns as Indiana Jones. Shia LaBeouf allegedly plays Indy's son. Cate Blanchett plays the villain. Ray Winstone is Indy's new sidekick. John Rhys-Davies was not asked to return as Sallah. John Hurt and Jim Broadbent have small roles. Sean Connery will not be returning as Indy Sr., finding retirement to be too enjoyable, but he wishes everyone the best. Karen Allen is rumored to be portraying Marion Ravenwood, her character from Raiders of the Lost Ark, once again. It is unknown whether or not LaBeouf is the son of Indy and Marion, or Indy and somebody else.
-John Williams will be doing the musical score.
-It will not heavily feature CGI and will instead use traditional special effects and stunt work.
-The 64-year-old Ford spent three hours a day at the gym and had a high-fiber diet of fish and vegetables.
-Shooting will take place around the globe, including Los Angeles.
-We will see a trailer around Thanksgiving, when the film's official title will be revealed.
-In the past week, we have been treated to the first official photo of Harrison Ford as Indy in nineteen years and a production diary, the first of many.
I couldn't be more excited. I know many people have doubts, but I say that if you're going to revive a franchise, you've got to do it right - with the original team at the helm. What say you?
