Whispers about Indiana Jones 5 started years ago. We've salivated over every development crumb tossed our way, no matter how small. And finally, we get a double whammy of news. First, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Indiana Jones 5 starts shooting in the UK this month. And second☂? The upcoming sequel might feature a paranormal storyline from an abandoned Last🤡 Crusade script.

suggests that producer Steven Spielberg might be turning to an unused Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade screenplay to inspire the sequel's opening. Penned by Chris Columbus, Indiana Jones and the Monkey King starts w💫ith our gruff hero battling a Scottish specter named Baron Seamus Seagrove IIIജ…. while on vacation. No doubt Indy would be pretty miffed to have his leisure time disrupted by a ghost, which makes the idea of this serving as the first scene pretty appealing.

and Twitter which aligns nicely with other rumors hinting at the film shooting at Bamburgh Caꦬ🍬stle. 

The local reports of a production scheduled to take place June 4 – June 12 involving "a lot of NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) apparen🌌tly." This certainly sou🎶nds like a big Hollywood production.

That's alౠl well and good, but how does this castle line up with the Scottish ghost theory? Donning our finest monocle, we conducted some🐻 sleuthing of our own (ahem, we read ), and… well, it checks out.

The opening of Columbus' screenplay finds Indy's peaceful fishing vacation interrupted by shenanigans in the local village, leading him to a mysterious haunted c🅺astle. Its description certainly paints a creepy picture: "An enormous, 16th CENTURY stone structure. Tall, foreboding towers, lined with menacing GARGOYLES, pierce the night sk♐y."

The Indiana Jones franchise is a family-friendly affair for the most part, 𒀰so this spooky beginning might not be quite the pant-browning pre-credits sequence it sounds like. Although, let's not forget what happened to the Nazis at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark. Yeesh.

Indiana Jones 5 is scheduled to land in theaters July 29, 2022. In the meantime, check out the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best movies on Disney Plus.
