According to our sources, Mads Mikkelsen will be playing the villain in this new installment of Indiana Jones. His character is described to us as a Nazi scientist enlisted into NASA by the United States government to work on the space agency’s moon landing initiative.
Shaunette Renee Wilson will be playing Mads Mikkelsen’s villain’s CIA handler responsible for “babysitting” the Nazi scientist turned NASA recruit. There will also be a female villain, “an evil and brutal killer” who will work with Mads Mikkelsen’s character. According to our sources, Scarlett Johansson actually passed on this role previously.
Mads Mikkelsen’s character’s description not only reveals that he will be the villain of Indiana Jones 5, but when the franchise’s next installment will be taking place.
The next Indiana Jones adventure would logically be set during the 1960s space race. NASA’s Apollo 11 landed on the moon in 1969, so it wouldn’t be a shock for the film to be set later in the 1960s, especially since the fourth Indiana Jones film was set in 1957. And in classic Indiana Jones fashion it looks like our hat wearing, whip wielding, archeologist will have another chance to punch some Nazis, with Mikkelsen’s villain being a former scientist for Hitler’s Reich.

Are you fucking serious? If they went back to that formula AGAIN after how fucking shit The Last Jedi was they're deliberately trying to destroy the IP. [Reply]

I'm judging by the review posted above, but it has the makings of a total train wreck.
I think those assholes actually believe their way of writing and making movies is fine, and that audiences are the real problem. [Reply]

It seems like they just don't get it. I still say the Hans Solo movie would have done awesome at the theaters had they not put out that shit show movie prior to it. Everyone basically said **** anything Star Wars at that point.
I thought the Hans Solo movie was actually pretty good and followed what a Star Wars movie should have been all along. [Reply]

“John Williams is nearly as pivotal to the franchise as Harrison Ford and contributes another rambunctious, busy score. There are several new melodies alongside returning favorites and the music has been mixed in at an appreciable level of volume so that it is not drowned by the sound effects.” (ScreenAnarchy)
“A returning John Williams remains a saving grace, providing grand musical motifs and familiar tunes at just the right moments.” (IGN)
“This is all set to what is said to be John Williams’ final score before retirement, which frankly stands as one of the most elating scores of his late career.” (Discussing Film)

The lesson should be that you can't make a successful Han Solo movie without a young Harrison Ford. I'd rather see a 100% CGI 30-year-old Ford than some kid who looks nothing like him...or the shriveling 80-year-old he actually is. [Reply]

They do get it. They just don't care. They want to push their agendas. [Reply]

Solo took such a bad beat.
That was a genuinely enjoyable movie that just got caught up in the shitshow of Kathleen Kennedy. [Reply]
