: They are still looking for a script, huh? It's almost comical.
: Tom Stoppard rewrote some parts of The Last Crusade script, right?

I think you are right, although I can't find any evidence to that effect. IMDB gives Boam sole screenplay credits (others get story and character credits). I think Stoppard did some rewrites on Boam's screenplay.

Most of his credits aren't in really Indy-like, not even close. Shakespeare in Love, Empire of the Sun, Brazil... some are good movies, but not quite what I'd expect for Indy. Either they are trying for a "deeper" story or he's just polishing an existing script.

Should be interesting... Hope it happens ASAP...
