No Connery for Indy 4

It's official: Sean Connery will not be returning for Indy 4. Connery made the announcement himself recently, but still remained enthusiatic about the newest Indy installment. I will admit, it would have been fun to see Sir Sean team up with Harrison Ford again, because the two made an amazing and quite enjoyable father/son pair in The Last Crusade, but it actually makes good sense that Connery not reprise his role—simply because, if the story takes place in, say, the late 1940s, his character Henry Jones, Sr. will be pretty damn old! And bear in mind, Harrison Ford himself is no spring chicken, either.

But in the final analysis, I'm content to simply revisit The Last Crusade to see Harrison Ford and Sean Connery in action together.
