CATE BLANCHETT Joins Cast of INDY IV

I can think of no greater actress working in Hollywood these days, accept for maybe Meryl Streep, than Cate Blanchett. She has a rawness and a vitality about every performance that beckons the audience's attention even through the blandest of stories. She was shrewd and electrifying as Kathryn Hepburn in THE AVIATOR, defiant and strong in VERONICA GUERIN, beautiful and terrifying as Galadriel in THE LORD OF THE RINGS, and in notably her greatest role to date, her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth in ELIZABETH and the upcoming ELIZABETH: THE GOLDEN AGE, she is haunting, powerful, yet riddled with fear of failure and vulnerability. She fills the screen with so much veracity that even the real Kathryn Hepburn, who many consider the greatest film actress of all time, might take some notice.

The Hollywood Reporter has just released news that Cate will next be joining the cast of the upcoming May 22, 2008 release of Indiana Jones 4. News regarding the films plot has been kept a very tight lipped secret. Rumors pin Blanchett as playing everything from Indiana's current love interest, to the very mother of his son. Nothing is certifiable, but one thing is certain, that Cate will have a leading role in the film alongside Harrison Ford.

INDIANA JONES 4 begins principal photography this coming June!!!
