Very little has been officially revealed concerning the development of the fifth Indiana Jones film to date, which makes sense given it won’t be arriving in theaters until July 19, 2019. We do know that franchise stars Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg will be back and that Jurassic Park writer David Koepp will be penning the script.

After the recent announcement of Indiana Jones 5’s release date, details have been difficult to come by. The plot is still being kept tightly under wraps for now, however some developments have been slowly revealed. During a interview with Empire Magazine about his new movie ‘The BFG’, he detailed what stage of development the movie was on.
“(Steven Spielberg) shows us videos of the BFG’s recording session on his iPhone, looks forward to INDIANA JONES V: “We have a McGuffin, that’s all I can say”.
