Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has confirmed that a new Indiana Jones film will be produced to relaunch the franchise. The confirmation was made in an interview conducted for Vanity Fair.
There are no early details or temporary theatrical dates for the upcoming film.
Here's the relevant quote from the Vanity Fair interview:
"In buying the company, Disney also got rights, for better or worse, to less-storied Lucasfilm properties, among them
Willow and
Radioland Murders. A bigger prize is the Indiana Jones franchise. Kennedy confirmed rumors that another Indy movie "will one day be made inside this company. When it will happen, I'm not quite sure. We haven't started working on a script yet, but we are talking about it."
