I guess Mangold could do another Logan and address Indy's age head-on. I remain sceptical, though. Apart from anything else, Indy isn't a compelling character in that way. You're not watching this for a deep character study of a broken man.

 

Was Wolverine, before Logan?

Yes, I would say so. Certainly in the source material.

 

I want to stress: it's ok for Indy not to be a deep character. He's arguably enjoyable precisely because he isn't.

So trailer tomorrow or today?

 

Not today, as A2's final trailer drops tonight on MNF (around 6:30pm - 7pm PST).

 

Plus with all of the Drama in Burbank, I doubt there's room for an A2 trailer and Iger Talk and an Indy trailer.

 

Maybe by Wed though.

This will be a BOOM week for Disney, for sure...stocks will celebrate...as will many fans, I assume, with online goodwill... a couple of major trailers will only sweeten the impact.

How is this new? Marvel's already doing this since 2016.

[Lucas]

Under no circumstances can I pretend that I'm not really looking forward to this.

We can go back further than that. Disney did it all the way back in 2010 with Tron: Legacy.

New VFX tech in how they approach and accomplish what they do is always being pioneered, especially for productions with the resources to afford it.  I'm sure there'll be a few more pieces about it in greater detail coming up (shame we lost CINEFEX mag...).  And yes, this tech has a history loooong before Marvel, being used for other things...like resurrection.  People should now begin to connect the performance-capture dots here about INDY5...

Didn't X-MEN: THE LAST STAND de-age Professor X and Magneto for the opening scene in 2006?

[shachi86]

I wonder if they'll also de-age his voice like they did with Mark Hamill for BOBF.

Only for the opening scene that takes place during WWII.

to a degree, but 2019 was the breakthrough year for deaging technoloy, with both" Captain Marvel" and "The Irishman" comng out, the breakthough films for this technology.

As for Harrison's concern, if it';s OK for De Niro, it should be ok for you....

Mads will obviously be great, but my God, Harrison Ford's Indy is just way past his prime. 

Let's face it, if you are looking for a really evil villian, Mads is the first person you call.

And I am sure the screen writers are taking the age of Indy into account.

Guess no teaser this week as Disney wants everyone and their dog to buy tickets for Avatar 2.

[shachi86]

Isn't the trailer meant to be attached to Avatar 2? It makes sense that they'll probably release it within the next 2-3 weeks or so.
