Casting Megan Fox as a female Indiana Jones. I can't think of a better way to completely alienate the dyed-in-the-wool fans of the franchise.
Assuming you're referring to recasting the role with a young actor, I'm sure that will happen at some point now that The Mouse owns the franchise.Yip. Almost as bad an idea as doing new Indy films at all....

The latest is that Spielberg promises that Indy will not die at the end of Indy5.

Also, rumor has it that they have found their McGuffin, although no word yet on what it might be:

And, yes, they are wheeling in Composer John Williams to do the music again.
The fact that they are not going to kill off the character limits our guessing game a bit. Time will tell.
True, but Disney has already declared almost all of the Star Wars novels, comic books, cartoons, and so on (i.e., the "Expanded Universe") that were released before they bought the franchise as non-canon. They could easily do the same with The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles and any other Indiana Jones related materials except for the four theatrical movies, and start from scratch.Just for the record: Indy has been done to death in the form of Young Indiana Jones. I never particularly liked that show but there's actually more in the Indy library than there is in Star Wars.
