Nineteen years after he last hung up his whip, the man with the hat is officially back next weekend, when "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" opens May 22. Now just how much longer will we have to wait before he returns again?

That's the question we're asking today with news that George Lucas has already come up with a storyline for a potential 5th Indiana Jones film. The Search for Atlantis? The Quest for the Fountain of Youth? How about, the Pursuit of a New Leading Man?

Believe it, Lucas told Fox News, saying that any future installment of the Indy franchise would most likely move forward with Shia LaBeouf's Mutt Williams as the main character, Indy regulated to sidekick status, a la Sean Connery in "Last Crusade." Read more...

One’s a 65-year-old actor masquerading as the biggest action star on the planet, the other’s a 21-year-old at the peak of his physical prowess. So guess which one got injured on the set of “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”?

You get two chances, and your first one doesn’t count.

“I pulled a rotator cuff in my hip,” Shia LaBeouf said, gesturing to his waist. “It’s the only time in my career I’ve ever been injured. What happened was, because the injury got worse and worse as the movie went on, I pulled my groin also. [The groin] is not a good thing to have anything happen to.” Read more...

Alright, so my brain is about to shut off after a day of Oscar coverage, but I've just seen the best piece of comedic content of the day and sorry Jon Stewart, but it wasn't on the Oscars. Remember that awesome Sarah Silverman/Matt Damon video a few weeks back? Tonight on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Jimmy saw his girlfriend one and raised her ten-fold.

"I'm f*&king Ben Affleck" featured Ben Affleck of course, and detailed the heretofore unknown love affair between Kimmel and the Oscar-winning star of "Gigli." And it was brilliant, from start to finish. The start featured Brad Pitt and just when you thought it was winding down, everyone from Don Cheadle and Huey Lewis to Pete Wentz and Joan Jett, appearing in a "We Are the World"-style group ballad.

"It's not the years," Indiana Jones tells Marion during a love scene in "Raiders of the Lost Ark. "It's the mileage."

Forget both. Approximately 27 years after he first exploded onto the big screen, Indy's wound up right where he started – or, rather, right where he first ended – in this exclusive photo from "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," which seems to show the world's most famous archeologist at the government warehouse from "Raiders," presumably to once again find the Ark (see Lucas compare "Crystal Skulls" to "Raiders" here).

And that, frankly, is baffling. Not from the perspective of overall narrative (cough) arc (cough) – it would be kind of cool, after all, for things to end where they began – but from a question of "how does it fit into the story of THIS movie?" Read more...

Now this is more like it. A couple weeks back we got a look at Indy and company courtesy of "Vanity Fair", and now our friends at Lucasfilm have released a cool new shot from "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" that feels just right for an Indiana Jones adventure. Harrison, Shia, and Ray Winstone aren't in the temple of doom but it sure looks like the kind of place where Indy could bitch about hating snakes and a poor guy could get his heart taken out of his chest.

Also, remember to check out all of our "Indiana Jones" photos right here.

We're happy. Are you? What's the next image you want to see from fourth Indy adventure?

Archaeologists at the San Diego Comic-Con may have uncovered a very well-prepared counterfeit: T-shirts that supposedly sport the title of the as-of-yet unnamed fourth "Indiana Jones" film. The tees, which are adorned with a Paramount logo on the front and a graphic for "Indiana Jones and the City of the Gods" -- the heavily rumored moniker for the movie -- on the back, were being handed out by the dozens by an unknown individual.

Representatives for Paramount steadfastly denied the shirt's authenticity, stating that "City of the Gods" was unequivocally not the actual title. If true, this would mark an impressive -- and expensive -- prank by one rabid fan.

Professor, archaeologist, expert on the occult, "obtainer of rare antiquities," (maybe even Dad), Indiana Jones has been called a lot of names over the years. Get ready for the most surprising one of all: boss.

SpielbergFilms.com recently announced that an open casting call will take place in New Haven, Connecticut June 11 and 12 for extras to appear in a motorcycle chase sequence in the eagerly anticipated flick. Spielberg and Co. are looking for people 18 years or older; those lucky enough to be cast will film the scene sometime between June 28 and July 7.

Now look, it's no cakewalk being an extra (and, frankly, we prefer the term "background performers") but could there possibly be anything cooler than seeing your face on-screen next to Harrison Ford's? We think not. So while Shia LaBeouf, George Lucas, and the rest of the "Indiana Jones 4” creative team are predictably tight-lipped about the future of our favorite whip-wielding hero, you could be the first on your block to get news and plot details straight from the source. And, if you do, won't you please send us word?
