So George Lucas has been out again speaking about Indiana Jones IV and saying nothing new. He's getting quite good at that, except this time he's let something slip about the casting.

It appears that they are trying to get Sean Connery back and that they are...

...still trying...

That's not much really in a comment caught over at Empire, but it is enough to sound like they are having troubles. When Connery spoke recently about returning for the Bond franchise, possibly as Bond's father for a one off role, he made it very clear that it would cost them a lot of money, a lot.

"I could come back as Bond's father but it would cost them. It would definitely cost them."

Was that him referring to the Indiana Jones role as well? Is he really trying to demand too much for the production? Do you think it would really affect the film if Connery wasn't back as his father?
