There have been some Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull details leaked online. If you’re hoping not to find out anything about this film until it hits theatres, I suggest you don’t **** the ’read more’ link. However, if you’re itching for some juicy Indy secrets then read on!

In the scenes shot in early September, Indiana Jones is blackmailed by the Russian Army as they are both searching for a crucifix skull in the jungles of South America.
Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen) is threatened to be killed and they then take Indiana Jones hostage and find the skull. The Russian soldiers celebrate Indy’s capture by dancing to balalaika folk music next to a campfire. We see Indiana Jones being interrogated inside a tent, where he is strapped to a chair. We can confirm that Cate Blanchett is to play the Russian interrogator.

George Lucas recently spoke to TV Guide about Sean Connery’s decision to not return as Indiana Jones’ father, and how they dealt with the notable absence.

“It’s just a completely different character, so you’re not invested in him in any way. The fact that that character, after the first part of the movie, isn’t needed doesn’t become a problem. Whereas I think with the scene we had, where [Indy] says goodbye to his dad, everybody was, “Wait a minute! Isn’t he coming back?” So in the end, I think it turned out for the best. Sean just retired and he wants to stay retired, and I understand that. [Laughs] I think he just said, “Look, I’ve done it, I’ve done it.” He was very tempted, you know, and we talked for a long time. But in the end, he just said, ‘Eh, I’m playing golf.’
