Karen Allen Talks "Indiana Jones"
“Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” is out on DVD and Blu-ray this week. ComingSoon.net sat down with Karen Allen, who talked about the movie and her future. Highlights:
On re-visiting the character of Marion: “It felt fantastic. I’ve had so many people who came up to me and said, “When you came on the screen everyone in the theater applauded.” It’s so sweet really, and it makes me feel very touched and very moved.”
On Shia: “I didn’t know who Shia was. I had never heard of him, so I went kind of Netflixing around and got some films so I could see his performances, and I was just knocked out by him.”
More after the jump…
On re-connecting with the original cast: “To me, it just seemed like everyone was just much more relaxed, having a good time… I think that when we were doing the first one, and maybe this was just more my perspective, but it seemed like everyone was under a lot more pressure.”
On retreating from the film industry: “I got to a point where there was so little that I was being offered…and I was a single parent and I couldn’t pull [my son] out of school for three and a half months to take him to Thailand to sit in a hotel room.”
On her future: “Well, I’m reading a lot of scripts right now… there are a couple of things that I have been interested in that are kind of waiting to be greenlit.”
