Indiana Jones Plot Spilled

September 25, 2007 -- A BIG-mouthed extra working on the new "Indiana Jones" flick has blown his fledgling movie career to smithereens by spilling the film's major plot points.

Director Steven Spielberg and producer George Lucas made the entire cast and crew of "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" sign nondisclosure agreements. But Tyler Nelson - cast as a "dancing Russian soldier" - gave an interview to his hometown newspaper, the Edmond Sun in Oklahoma, in which he revealed that:

[censored--but do the link for the bullet points, wihch absolutely have the ring of truth]

Nelson's own big scene comes when he celebrates Indy's capture by dancing to balalaika folk music. But it's doubtful the footage of the 24-year-old actor - a professionally trained ballet dancer who studied at the Bolshoi Academy in Moscow - will make it into the final cut. Spielberg, furious Nelson blabbed, has reportedly snipped his scene.

Spielberg's spokesman, Marvin Levy, wouldn't say whether any of Nelson's spoilers are accurate, but noted: "Who knows whether that particular person will ever work in this town again?"
Ooof--Wouldn't want to be that kid...

I read the bullet points. Spielberg and Lucas shouldn't have anything to worry about. I can understand why they would be upset, but I didn't read anything earth shattering. I'm sure what was reveled will be in the previews whenever those come out.

What was revealed was basically already known, just not confiremd. Only other thing I've heard is that John Hurt plays some kind of fellow adventurer (not sure if he's friend or foe).

And there are persistent rumors of a sequence set in the warehouse from the end of Raiders. (One says it's the teaser sequence.)
