The last go around for 'Indiana Jones' in 2008's 'Kingdom of the Crystal Skull' wasn't warmly embraced by long-term fans, and so news that Disney, the new franchise owners are keen to get another entry off the ground was met with interest, but more than a little trepidation. But now it seems that half of the creating team will be absent and that's gotten a pretty mixed reaction.
According to David Koepp, the Hollywood screenwriter who's currently writing the as-yet untitled 'Indiana Jones 5', confirms that George Lucas hasn't been part of the story process, saying "I've had no contact with him." Lucas has been co-credited with writing the story for all four previous films, and created the character with Steven Spielberg. Koepp went on to give a not-so-serious update on the development thus far "I'm deeply immersed as we speak. All I can say is that there's lots of aliens and Indy dies at the end. Lots of hiding in lead-lined refrigerators, aliens, and he dies. Should go over very well."
