Disney Chairman And CEO Bob Iger Says New 'Indiana Jones' Movie "Will Be Coming"

It can't be underestimated how much change Disney Chairman and CEO Bob Iger has brought to the company. During his tenure at the mouse house, the company has acquired Pixar, Marvel, and of course, Lucasfilm, and turned the movie studio into one of the most powerful in Hollywood. So needless to say, he had a lot to talk about when he sat down with Bloomberg for a half-hour conversation. And while much of the conversation was on the potential of "Star Wars," the broader landscape of the company when it comes to television, theme parks, and more, there's one little nugget that stood out.

Chatting about the what's on the horizon for Lucasfilm properties, Iger talked about upcoming "Star Wars" sequels, adding, "and 'Indiana Jones,' by the way, which will be coming."

Earlier this year, a 2018 release date was rumored for a potential new "Indiana Jones" movie, Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford have been pretty open about reuniting, and Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy has also suggested the whip will be cracked again.

For now, it seems something that's definitely being talked about in the halls of Disney, and hopefully more official word will arrive soon.
