In addition to The Dark Knight next summer, the movie with the biggest buzz right now is probably Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, or just Indiana Jones IV. Although a trailer is forthcoming sometime around Christmas in December, we've got a few new official, high res photos of Harrison Ford back in his old gear and Shia LaBeouf all greased up working alongside Indy. These are all worth a look in their own right, so check them out.

While there have already beeen numerous photos from the set of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, including a whole debacle with stolen photos and the FBI that we stayed out of, these are the very first official looking photos from the movie. They come courtesy of our friends at AICN.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

With each and every new photo I get more and more excited for the return of Indiana Jones. Did you notice the cobwebs on Indy's hat in the first photo? Are they back exploring the very first cave from Raiders of the Lost Ark? (Yes, that was a joke.) My new favorite photo from this is the last one with Indy standing with his whip and gun in hand and the smoke and light behind him. I just love the angle and look - it just embodies everything that makes Indiana Jones so damn badass!!

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull arrives in theaters next summer on May 22nd, 2008. Keep up to date on all the latest happenings, news, photos, trailers, and everything Indiana Jones related right here at FS.net!

Oh I get all warm and fuzzy inside seeing this pictures. I love Indy! Thanks Alex. I now continue to mark the days on my calendar until it opens in theaters!

Is it the same cave? Come on Alex, I have a sneaking suspicion that SOMEWHERE in the world, there just MIGHT be, just MAYBE, there might be ANOTHER cave that *gasp!* has spiderwebs in it. Maybe.

But enough of me ridiculing your absurd jump to a conclusion. This looks pretty sweet. Bring on the Indy!

It was a JOKE Mark! Obviously they're not in the same cave, if anything I was just mentioning it because that's one of those signature "Indy walks through some cobwebs" kinda things…!

And thanks Breebaby, that's exactly how I feel, too!

How do you ruin a perfectly good movie? Add in Shia LaBeouf…

Sal C on Nov 27, 2007

I love it…a biker in an Indy movie….

HMC on Nov 27, 2007

Shia LaBeouf looks really buff in the new Indy movie, too. They're releasing the Bert Shirt photos soon in a magazine. See the leaked release of Shia's new body: Ouchpost.com

I agree. You have to be kidding me!! Shia LaBeouf!! COME ON. This is Indiana Jones. The movie would have made money just having Harrison Ford in it. This looks like a complete joke with this Shitty LaBoof idiot!! The movie's already ruined.

John J on Nov 28, 2007

Here's a thought: wait and see the movie, then hate on Shia LaBeouf if you want.

The photos look like Indy 3.5 (that "Last Crusade" look about it), and although I'm not keen on another Indiana movie after all these years, I'll keep an open mind till it opens next year.

Shia Labeouf is the most horrible actor possible…I can't believe they dare to put him in an Indy movie…What a waste

Jordane on Nov 29, 2007

I'm a big indy fan, but it's hard to keep an open mind about Shia LaBeouf. Indy doesn't need any goofy teens like Shia in Constantine or I, Robot. They should have at least brought back the kid from Temple of Doom (Jonathan Ke Quan).

Maybe that biker jacket and slick-rick haircut means that he's tough now, but don't mess around with one of the greatest movie franchises in history.

I will trust the judgement and decision making process of Steven Spielberg over whom to cast and how to make a movie over any nay-sayers on the web who do not have a clue.
Do any you of you really think a director as successful/powerful/wealthy/brilliant as him would wait 19 years to get a sequel written and waste his time and reputation and the franchise and not cast each of those roles without prudent judgement?

This is why he is Spielberg and you are not ….. some of you are just ignorant people who post comments like "Shia sucks…he will ruin the movie…"

He mentioned thwe most hyped films, Indy 4 and Dark Knight, but have you forgotten Cloverfield?

Dear Chloe,

Thanks for the nice comments. I've been working out trying to look "extra hot" for my role opposite Harrison (he still looks pretty ripped for his age!).

I was a bit naughty in Chicago, but it all worked out in the end

Enjoy Indy 4!

Yours, Shia.

I think that shia is a brilliant actor, i mean in transformers and disturbia he plays the part brilliantly. And is more than capable to be in the Indiana film im sure that he will do as well as he has done in these two films.

And he is also very hot

Nicky on Feb 25, 2008
