The much-hyped “Indiana Jones” sequel’s trouble-plagued production just took a darker turn — as a crew member has reportedly died on location in Morocco.

“Indiana Jones 5” camera department pro Nic Cupac was found dead in his hotel room in the city of Fes, Walt Disney Studios confirmed to The Post on Thursday.

“Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Nic Cupac, an incredibly talented colleague and member of the film community who will be greatly missed,” a rep for the production told The Post. “His sudden passing was not production related. Nic was a grip on 2nd unit.”

Heh. Up here we don’t have nannies.....but black bears will eat their children for appetizers.

Well at least in Manchester he's surrounded by progressives.

It bothered me to no end we never find out what happened to that guy.

Still a very well made show.

Too many movie production deaths. I think we need movie making control laws!

Perhaps we should start a group and call it Movietown for movie safety control. A permit and background checks would be required and then a 5 year waiting period prior to start of movie production. You don't want any actors and/or producers to be all hot and bothered, you need a cooling off period.

That scene may well be one of the more funnier ones in movie history. I remember seeing it at the theatre and the crows just exploded with laughter and cheers.

After they nuked the fridge and did an ancient aliens story what more can they do to poor Indy?

Oh well, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 may enjoy the company in sequel hell.

We need common sense film control laws!

No. He’s going back in time to fight Nazis with young Indiana Jones.
Both will die and Indiana Jones disappears from the time line to be replaced by his Strong Female Character assistant.
At least that is where Kathleen Kennedy seemed to be taking it before Disney decided to delay it at least another year.

Same thing

[Organic Panic]

The entire crew should have been found dead on the set of IJ4 for making that abomination...

[Seruzawa]

Probably OD. Movie people.

Since it is Episode 5, perhaps it was simply of old age.
