Fans Think ‘Indiana Jones 5’ is Recycling a Crazy Deleted Scene

This has led certain fans to speculate that Indy 5 will be re-using the scrapped opening from what became Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, which, as we’ve discussed before, was completely insane. In the prologue to Indiana Jones and the Monkey King by Chris Columbus, Indy journeys to a Scottish castle where he battles an evil Baron who, in a final ridiculous twist, turns out to be a g-g-g-ghost!

Of course, this new castle scene could just be part of an entirely original storyline — but on the other hand, modern Lucasfilm movies have had a habit of recycling ideas that were abandoned decades ago. Hopefully, this doesn’t also mean that Indy will be teaming up with a horny co-ed and a 200-year-old pygmy to dig up some magic peaches, which is seriously what that script was about.
