SEAN CONNERY - CONNERY MAY CHUCK RETIREMENT FOR INDY SEQUEL

Sean Connery is considering stepping out of retirement to appear in the planned Indiana Jones sequel as the principal character's father. In an interview with Scotland on Sunday, Connery acknowledged that he had already been approached by George Lucas about appearing in the as-yet-untitled film and that he is seriously considering doing so. However, he added, "At the moment, there's nothing decided. I haven't got the script. Everything depends on the script." Connery has not appeared in a movie since The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in 2002 during which he admittedly clashed repeatedly with the director. He said last August that the time had come for him to retire "because of my rather unfortunate last movie. ... The cost to me in terms of frustration and avoiding going to jail for murder cannot have continued."
