It’s easy to forget that Disney did buy out the Indiana Jones franchise some time ago, considering most of their efforts went into pushing new Star Wars stuff. Now, however, it seems they’ve just remembered that they have access to one of the most famous archaeologists in fiction, and now want a new movie.

Kathleen Kennedy, the President of Lucasfilm, confirmed the rumour during an interview with Vanity Fair: “When it will happen, I’m not quite sure. We haven’t started working on a script yet, but we are talking about it.”

So the film is very much non-existent at this point. Without a script, there is very little to go on. The big question, though, on everyone’s minds is will Harrison Ford return to reprise his role? The 72 year-old actor, who is currently working on Star Wars Episode VII (the other big movie franchise that George Lucas has worked on that he was a part of), has stated that it would be “perfectly appropriate” for him to doff that fedora once more. However, it’s believed that Disney may want a younger actor to take over the role.

Chris Pratt could play any role in any movie and it’d still be perfect

Some actors have already been rumoured to play the part, such as Chris Pratt (Star-Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy), Bradley Cooper (who was also in Guardians of the Galaxy as the trigger-happy Rocket Raccoon) and even Shia LeBeouf, who you may recall did play as Indy’s son, Mutt, in the last film, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. In fact, the ending scene of that movie hinted towards the possibility of Mutt following in his father’s footsteps.

In the end, this is purely speculation. Until a script is even written, we won’t be getting any details for a while. But if this new project succeeds, we could see another popular film franchise being revived for both the old fans and a new generation.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
