More Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Spoilers, Plot Details

While details of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull have remained mostly secret, the studio just sent over a new and revised synopsis for the upcoming adventure (check it out below, along with a series of photos from the film).

It begins in desert Southwest in 1957 – at the height of the Cold War.  Indiana and his sidekick Mac (Ray Winstone) have barely escaped a close scrape with nefarious Soviet agents on a remote airfield.

Now,  Jones has returned home to Marshall College, only to find that things have gone from bad to worse.  His close friend and dean of the college (Jim Broadbent) explains that Indy’s recent activities have made him the object of suspicion; the government has put pressure on the university to fire him.

On his way out of town, Indiana meets rebellious young Mutt (Shia LaBeouf), who carries both a grudge and a proposition for the adventurous archaeologist:  If he’ll help Mutt on a mission with deeply personal stakes, Indy could very well make one of the most spectacular archaeological finds in history:

The Crystal Skull of Akator, a legendary object of fascination, superstition and fear.

Harrison Ford Dishes on Life, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Most of the story lines of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull are still secret - but Harrison Ford recently told USA Today the movie will try to give new perspectives on his globe-trotting, fist-fighting archaeologist.

“He’s a guy who is pretty clear from the beginning,” Ford said. “He has not changed so much between films. But we’ve learned more about him, through various plot devices, such as the introduction of his father. And we’ll learn something more about him in this film. I think it’s required. If you’re going to bring back a character, you’ll have to supply the audience with something more and different. ”

Jackpot!

Ford added that “the adventure is very, very important. But it’s interesting to discover a facet of the character that perhaps you hadn’t explored before.”

Such as his age. Yes, even Indiana Jones must grow old, as the character’s development in life will reflect that of the man portraying him in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

“I think it’s an interesting element to take advantage of,” Ford said. “Clearly, it’s another challenge that he faces.”

Somehow, we think he’ll overcome it.

Shia LaBeouf: Injured and Excited

Next Big StarShia LaBeouf injured himself during the filming of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

“I pulled a rotator cuff in my hip,” LaBeouf told MTV. “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.”

Don’t worry, though, fans: the young star will be fine in time for the summer, when filming on a certain, much-anticipated sequel begins.

“We’re gearing up for [Transformers 2] in June,” he said.

As for what he’d like to see out of his robot friends, Shia has just one request: “It’s got to be more badass. It has to be.”

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Questions and Answers

As we get closer and closer to the May release date of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, questions about the film are buzzing.

And Entertainment Weekly is doing its best to answer a few of them. In a recent feature, the magazine responds to a few rumors, such as…

Are the Crystal Skulls alien artifacts?
Like the Ark of the Covenant in Raiders of the Lost Ark and the Sankara Stones in Temple of Doom, the skulls (there’s likely more than one, despite the singular in the title) are the supernatural MacGuffins — the powerful thingies that everybody’s chasing. (Some think the Ark will turn up again too.)

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Still Shot

From what little the filmmakers have spilled, the skulls sound otherworldly in origin, while fan speculation has it that those who covet them believe they grant psychic powers.
