Cate Blanchett

The Hollywood Reporter indicates that Cate Blanchett has signed on to star in the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones adventures. Harrison Ford already has boarded the project, which will be produced by Lucasfilm and directed by Steven Spielberg. With David Koepp's screenplay shrouded in secrecy, it is unclear what character Blanchett will play. Shooting will begin in June in Los Angeles and at undisclosed locations around the world. Paramount Pictures will release Indy 4 around the world on May 22, 2008, (19 years after the last movie) with a handful of territories opening the following day. Frank Marshall is producing, with George Lucas and Kathleen Kennedy executive-producing.
