Whatever you do, don't spoil Indy IV

By Will Reynolds / June 25, 2011

Harrison Ford. Tyler Nelson, who played "Dancing Russian Soldier" in the film, revealed the following plot details:

Indy and the Soviet army are both searching for a priceless skull made of crystal in the jungles of South America. The Russians take Indy hostage and then blackmail him by threatening to kill his ex-girlfriend and mother of his son, Marion Ravenwood. Cate Blanchett plays an evil Russian who grills Indy. "I saw Harrison Ford strapped to a chair and being interrogated," Nelson told the paper.

These spoilers are fairly tame in comparison with, say, the earlier JUSTICE LEAGUE spoilers, but that hasn't stopped Steven Spielberg getting angry and firing Nelson from the movie.

"Who knows whether that particular person will ever work in this town again?" said Martin Levy, a spokesman for Spielberg.

It seems Spielberg and George Lucas have a good cop/bad cop thing going on. Spielberg is playing the hardass as he doesn't want any details leaked at all. Whereas Lucas has been through the STAR WARS prequels dealing with the ultra-obsessive net crowd and thinks Spielberg should let some of these things slide. I feel a little sorry for Nelson in this. Sure, he shouldn't have done it, but this probably means he'll be ILM'd out of the film and will never get to tell his friends and family about how he once shared the screen with Indiana Jones. source - ny post, chud
