Director - Doug Liman
Writer - Christopher McQuarrie
Synopsis - During WW2, Indiana Jones and George McHale (younger self played by Stephen Graham?) are assigned by the Allies to team up with a female archaeologist against an evil occult scholar working with the Nazis to discover the Seal of Solomon, a magic ring which gave the biblical ruler control over demons. They connect the dots which include a lost Persian army, a mysterious Egyptian oracle, and rumors of a lost civilization in East Africa. Locations: Burma, India (Calcutta), Iran, Egypt (Cairo), Sudan, Ethiopia.
Note: Cold opening will take place in Burma and pit both Jones and Mac against the Japanese looting ancient Buddhist temples. They'd return to India to be briefed on their mission.
