In this exclusive interview, George Lucas reveals the secrets of the future of Indiana Jones 5 to SuperShadow and the fans.

SuperShadow: Will Indiana Jones 5 ever happen?

George Lucas: It depends. It will be awhile, but I might revisit the Indiana Jones character again.

SuperShadow: Do you have a story idea for Indy Jones 5 yet?

George Lucas: Yes, I have a basic premise of what will happen in the next one.

SuperShadow: What time frame does Indiana Jones 5 take place in?

George Lucas: The year 1959.

SuperShadow: The Indiana Jones movies always open with Indy Jones in the middle of some kind of adventure. How does Indiana Jones 5 start out?

George Lucas: At the beginning, Indy is with some guides searching for the hidden burial chamber of Genghis Khan.

SuperShadow: Where does this story open up at?

George Lucas: Mongolia.

SuperShadow: Can you explain who Genghis Khan is?

George Lucas: Genghis Khan was the powerful leader of the Mongol Empire, which became the geographically largest empire in the history of the world.

SuperShadow: Please continue.

George Lucas: Eventually, Indiana Jones finds the entrance to the Genghis Khan tomb and subsequently discovers one of the greatest archaeological finds of all time.

SuperShadow: What makes this discovery so important?

George Lucas: Well, Indy finds the remains of Genghis Khan with an untold fortune in gold, precious stones and Mongol artifacts. Indiana Jones basically finds out about all the hidden history of Genghis Khan.

SuperShadow: Usually somebody takes whatever Indiana Jones finds at the start of the movie. What happens this time in Indiana Jones 5?

George Lucas: I need to explain who the primary villains are for Indiana Jones 5. The Communists have taken over China. So basically the Chinese are the bad guys for this film.

SuperShadow: Are they seen at the beginning of Indy Jones 5?

George Lucas: Yes, they've had Indy under surveillance as soon as Indy enters Mongolia.

SuperShadow: The Chinese are basically watching Indy Jones for what purpose?

George Lucas: Chinese spies learned that Indy Jones has information, which might lead him to where Genghis Khan is buried. The Communist Chinese are interested in these artifacts because the Mongols terrorized China many hundreds of years ago. It's sorta revenge for the Chinese really.

SuperShadow: This sounds absolutely fantastic. How do you keep thinking up these ingenious quests for Indiana Jones?

George Lucas: I spend many hours a week studying world history. I'll find something which interests me and try to find a way to develop it further. It keeps getting harder and harder to be original because there's only so much you can do with a story.

SuperShadow: What happens after Indy Jones finds the tomb?

George Lucas: The Chinese military appears and captures Indy and takes all the Genghis Kahn historical objects back to China. This leads to the main supernatural relic, which is the basis of Indiana Jones 5.

SuperShadow: What do the Chinese do with Indy Jones?

George Lucas: They need Indy's help. The Chinese have been searching for supernatural relics to make them invincible so that they can control the entire world. In Jerusalem, Chinese secret agents find clues which seem to indicate the holy cross Jesus Christ was crucified on was hidden by the Disciples.

SuperShadow: What a remarkably brilliant idea. What made you think of this?

George Lucas: With each Indiana Jones film, you have to improve on the previous film. I've thought to myself that the most powerful religious relic of all time would be the holy cross, which was drenched in the blood of God as Jesus suffered on the holy cross. Basically, I'm running out of Christian ideas for the films. You have the legend of the Holy Grail, which we already utilized so what you have left is the holy cross of the crucifixion.

SuperShadow: Does Indy agree to help the Chinese?

George Lucas: Indy Jones examines the evidence the Chinese have gathered. However, before Indy can make any real conclusions, the British military raids the Chinese facility and seizes Indy and all the evidence surrounding the location of the holy cross.

SuperShadow: So the British were watching the Chinese the whole time the Chinese had Indy Jones under surveillance?

George Lucas: Exactly. In the case of espionage, you can never really know who is watching you.

SuperShadow: What happens now? This keeps getting better and better. You never run out of awesome ideas that are stunning and mesmerizing.

George Lucas: The British take Indy to London, England where they explain to Indy Jones what is happening. They tell Indy they had been patiently watching the Chinese and waiting for the best moment to spoil the Chinese plans for global domination. The British ask Indy to find the holy cross for them so that they can keep the Chinese from finding it first. The British give Indy a side kick named Nevin, who is a seasoned British commando. They travel the planet in search of the holy cross.

SuperShadow: What locations do Indy and Nevin travel to?

George Lucas: Initially, they go to Jerusalem to find additional information about where the holy cross is hidden. The subsequent clues take Indiana Jones to Russia, France and eventually to the clandestine caves of Romania where the holy cross has been secured for safe keeping.

SuperShadow: Very, very spectacular. What happens in the end?

George Lucas: Indiana Jones 5 finishes with a massive battle confrontation between the British military and the Chinese military. The unlimited supernatural powers of the holy cross are released with our existence at stake.

SuperShadow: Wow. This is the best Indy Jones movie yet. You need to begin pre-production on Indiana Jones 5 immediately.

George Lucas: For the next decade, I will be producing various Star Wars television series, then we'll have to work on Star Wars Episode 7. It could be a while before Indy Jones 5 happens. It took us forever to finally get Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull completed.

SuperShadow: Will Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford be involved with Indiana Jones 5?

George Lucas: That's impossible to know. They each have other films they want to do in the future. It probably won't happen soon.

SuperShadow: Thanks for giving us the latest spoilers about Indiana Jones 5. You are a blessing to the fans and we will always appreciate you dedicating your life to us.

George Lucas: Keeping my finger on the pulse of the fans enables me to live a dream life while providing the fans with the exact type of entertainment they want to see. I appreciate each fan beyond what I can describe. You have all given me the most perfect existence.
