‘Indiana Jones 5’ Crew Member Found Dead on Location of Troubled Production
New York Post ^ | November 4, 2021 | Andrew Court

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.”

The movie was doomed from the start. They plan is to transition from the old Indiana Jones (played by Harrison Ford) to a new, female Indy played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

Meet the next Indiana Jones. I'm sure she will have fans flocking to the theaters for decades.

It’s a race between this and Tom Cruise’s new Mission Impossible film to see which will be the last released.

Oh yes.

My dad met Raymond Burr when he was in Viet Nam. My dad said he was a very nice and squared away person.

If you knew my dad you’d know he didn’t hand out compliments like that often.

Sounds like one of my uncles.

Compliments from him are few and far between.

Maybe an 80 year-old Indiana Jones fighting a 100 year-old Nazi. A wheelchair race or something.

Note that Ford shot a couple feet above the guys head

I did notice that, for the first time, and I've seen that movie maybe a half dozen.

"Is 150 year old Indiana going to fight another Russian super soldier?"

The head office says Russia and China are off limits. So he will fight racist transphobic Americans.

She does have a sort of feminine rugged masculinity about her.

Does she carry a 45 caliber Smith & Wesson revolver, like the original Indy?

She appeared naked in one of the Sherlock episodes. Perhaps the production people want to exploit her nudity to keep the franchise alive? Hollywierd is all about exp-loitation dontchaknow.

A fun back story on that clip.
