Wasn't Roma inspired by Cuaron's aunt? I think Spielberg is usually at his best when directing stories he has a personal attachment to. It's probably the same reason he walked away from Indy 5.

Popular Post crumbs 14,306 Posted May 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 4, 2021 Film is now titled The Fabelmans. Casting now underway in Arizona for two young kids to play 'Sammy' at different ages. Let's hope this doesn't go the way of Edgardo Mortara where they couldn't find any child actors for the role (I'm still bummed we missed a Williams score for a film like that).

Jay 37,336 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Is Spilelberg involved in Indy 5 at all?

He will probably visit the set a day or two and maybe even guest direct a couple of scenes, like he's done with friends like on Wolf of Wall Street and Revenge of the Sith. And I'm sure he'll have a watchful eye on post-production and visit the recording sessions, but he'll probably stay hands out createvly. 2 hours ago, Jay said: The Fabelmans is supposed to start filming "this summer" according to the original article in the main post Fingers crossed!

mrbellamy 6,275 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Maybe but Deadline is usually on top of things. Their announcement with the kid playing Spielberg also says untitled.

Then, covid pushed it and all the Star Wars and Avatar movies back another year Christmas 2015: STAR WARS Christmas 2016: STAR WARS Christmas 2017: STAR WARS Christmas 2018: mary poppins Christmas 2019: STAR WARS Christmas 2020: covid Christmas 2021: west side story Christmas 2022: AVATAR Christmas 2023: STAR WARS Christmas 2024: AVATAR Christmas 2025: STAR WARS Christmas 2026: AVATAR Christmas 2027: STAR WARS Christmas 2028: AVATAR So by the time it finally comes out it will be 2 1/2 years after it was filmed.
