Steven Spielberg 'proud of Indiana Jones 4'

Steven Spielberg has said that he is proud of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

The War Horse director revealed that he does not regret his involvement in the film, saying that he particularly enjoyed the fact that the iconic hero had a son, played by Shia LaBeouf.

"I'm really proud of the movie," Spielberg told Entertainment Weekly. "I loved bringing Marion back, I love the fact that Indy now has a son. It's a family action film, and I love that whole conceit."

He continued: "It's public that George [Lucas] and I and Harrison [Ford] all had a clash about genre and concept. But I've always told George's stories. George wrote all four stories for all four movies."

Spielberg previously said that he was against the use of aliens in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

"I'll fight for things I don't believe, but ultimately, if George wants to bring interdimensional beings into Crystal Skull, I will do the best job I possibly can to acquit George's ideas and make him proud," Spielberg told the magazine.

In August, Harrison Ford confessed that he does not know if there will be a fifth Indiana Jones film.
