The Indiana Jones TV series may follow a major franchise character.
Earlier this week came news that Lucasfilm is in the early stages of developing an Indiana Jones TV series, a report that has sent fans of the franchise into a frenzy wondering what it could possibly be about. Since the adventure movies had previously spun out into a prequel TV show withThe Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, there was speculation that the series might follow a different character altogether and it appears that might be the case.
"I've heard that the Indiana Jones series is a prequel to Raiders of the Lost Ark that will follow Marion's father," Sneider revealed."I'm told he is the protagonist of the Indiana Jones series." As fans may recall, Abner Ravenwood is a character that is referenced quite a bit in the Indiana Jones movies but has never actually appeared in any of the films, comics, or stories.
For Lucasfilm, making Abner Ravenwood the lead character of the series is an idea that provides them a lot of flexibility . Since he's never actually appeared on screen they have a huge window of opportunity to do basically anything that they want. While allusions to Abner's time mentoring Indy or even his life with Marion and her mother have been hinted at, even told in ancillary materials, it's basically a blank slate of potential for the studio.
