Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.

This is the first I’ve heard of Broadbent joining the cast of INDY 4, but if it’s true, I love it. Then again, Broadbent joining any cast is cause for rejoicing as far as I’m concerned. This guy’s a brilliant actor, and with him playing a Marcus Brody-like role and John Hurt allegedly playing Albert Einstein, I must admit... I’m starting to find myself interested in this film after all.

Check out this e-mail, and mark this one as a rumor for the time being:

Hi Moriarty,

You don't know me, but I thought I would drop you a line to tell you that I heard Jim Broadbent confirm that he is in Indiana Jones IV. He is essentially playing the Denholm Elliott part - not actually Marcus Brody - but the same kind of character in the story.

I haven't seen this up on the site - but seems pretty brilliant casting to me.

Call Me Irving.
