He probably just meant to say 45, slip ups happen. No biggie.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure "35 years old" is just being said in a very general sense, simply meaning a younger guy.

If the ‘44 look followed up on how he appeared in Crusade, I’d always imagined that WWII Indy would logically look closer to how Harrison looked in the mid 90’s.

Then again, Harrison was about 45 when doing a Temple of Doom. No real complaints here, I’m cool with a more “prime” looking Indy!

OK. So if Shamook doesn't know it... at least George Lucas does, doesn't him? He is the second executive producer and I guess he's seen the film already.

I should hope George Lucas knows considering that he was the one who decided upon Indy's birthday for the Young Indy series in the first place.

Which, again, is canon, whether it was very good or not, given that some of the events were referenced in Skull. The series has continuity. Continuity matters.

Again, whether he looks quite like he maybe ought to six years after Crusade isn't the issue. He can look relatively the same as he did in the first three. It's the actual age that he is stated to be that matters. They need to get the math right.

Frankly, I'm hoping that it's just not explicitly revealed in the film.

He was born in 1942. ToD was shot in 1983. So "about 45" is rounding up pretty heavily. It was his age when making LC, not ToD.

So the de-aged DoD Indy looking about the same as LC Indy would more or less be on spot.

True.

I usually go by the age Ford was when the films hit cinemas which was 38, 41, 46, 65 and 80.

Ford was already starting to grey in The Last Crusade, the first Donavan scene in particular has him looking almost totally grey in some shots.

That was my biggest worry is that the de-aging would have his hair fully brown but it looks like his grey-ing hair was kept as far as I can tell. Good continuity!

very right that he was starting to turn gray. and at the airport where Donovan tells him not to trust anyone, gray hairs can be seen strongly. that's why in the third movie he doesn't have much of a beard because he has gray hairs on his chin like the fugitive. but the ever-smart Spielberg shows him to have shaved in Venice. I said it from the beginning if you see my messages that Ford's face at the beginning of the fifth film does not reflect 1944 (45) but between the ark and the temple. but who cares. only us fan we understand them. maybe the material they had was from star wars and the first indiana

I used to be able to upload jpegs to postimages.org or imgbb.com or freeimage.host etc, and then add the link here just fine, but now when I try to post the link via "insert image" I get the message...
"Image cannot be loaded from the passed link"

Is there an image hosting site you recommend that might work for me?

I find the image button doesn’t work very well: if you type in the code yourself i.e [ IMG ] (no spaces) and the corresponding close one around your image link, it will probably work.

 

[fedoraboy]

Thanks @emtiem... I'll give this a try (between my computer being ancient and me being something of a technophobe apologies if this doesn't work!)

I've photographed all the pages - sorry a few of them aren't the clearest but didn't have much time this morning. Hopefully you can easily click on the below

Really cool of you to take the time to post...thank you!

Regarding the image issue: When trying to post images through the built-in feature, make sure you're pasting in the url of the actual image instead of the image hoster's embed page. In other words, double check that the url ends in either ".jpg" or ".png" (or another known image file extension), and not any other string of characters.

Of course, you can link to the embed page as well, but then you simply should add it to the post as a simple link instead of trying to wrap it in any tags. In some occasions, the forum software will even recognize the embed, providing a thumbnail.

Tried this - still can't get it to work I'm afraid - same issue. As I say, I imagine it's my computer and not your system if it works for other people.

Thanks for posting...nothing new sadly which is a bit cheap of then not a single new image at all

Well that shot of Indy & Helena was a Total Film exclusive, they just released it online ahead of the physical magazine. Weird that they didn't include their other exclusive image in the article - the one of Indy on the plane.

There were two new images, in fact.

Yes, like I said, it was weird that they only included one of the images in the magazine article.

 

[British Raider]

Yes I expected the one of Indy on the plane to be in the magazine. Odd. Haven’t had time to read the articles yet. I have my copy so will find a quiet moment.

 

[UKFilmNerd]

If anyone wants them, here are some cleaner copies.

This could probably all have been conjectured by what we already knew but the article mentions Waller-Bridge and Kennedy having dinner just before lockdown 2020 and it sounds like there was a script in some form by then. Mangold was revealed to be director in May. So assume his part in writing a script dates back to 2019? So perhaps explains why Ford was talking about filming to start in the summer of 2020 originally? That was February. So there was yet another year before they started filming in 2021. I just like having a timescale. It gives me confidence in that they had the time to write this script, unlike what we’ve seen with some movies.

 

[Moedred]

Mangold was revealed to be director in May.

It was February 2020, and a week before, Ford said "we're having some scheduling issues right now with people that we really want to be involved." At 4:00:

 

[British Raider]

Interesting don’t think I saw that interview.

Is that George Lazenby?
