Q: Take that franchise over and do movies?
Shia LaBeouf: "There's greater men than I who could answer that question. I'm in no control. But I wouldn't say no. I know that Steven and George have talked about it. I know that Harrison has talked about it. I know that George is out scouting to find another MacGuffin, so he's in the midst of it right now, in the search. I think he found it. I think that George and Steven are writing right now, but I don't know whether I'm in it or not. I know that I've been kept aware and in the loop information-wise, but I don't know when or where."
Q: The adventures of Mutt Jones, coming up next!
Shia LaBeouf: "I don't think I'd want to watch that movie, to be honest with you. I think you need Indy there or you sort of lose the magic of what that movie is. He is the magic, I think. I think he is the magic. I think he's the magic in a very, very different way. I don't know where they're going to go from now."
Q: Just give a little heads up to George Lucas about taking over.
Shia LaBeouf: "It's not an easy thing to just throw his way. Like, 'hey George, let me take over this whole thing for you.' No, I mean, he knows, I'm, of course, I mean, yeah sure, who wouldn't? But I think Harrison is gung-ho. Harrison is the one who's been pushing them to make another one. Harrison is the most gung-ho out of the whole troop. He wants back in and he knows. Harrison is in his mid sixties. He is so jacked. He is the strongest man, physically, that I've ever come across in my life."
