A couple of points have been making the rounds today, the first is the potential casting of Lost’s Andrew Divoff (the eye-patch wearing invincible man! - he also played The Wishmaster), according to Joblo. His character is as of yet unknown, but we can easily speculate that it will be villainous.

The second point, which is dubious and unconfirmed by an external source is the character that John Hurt shall play. Visit the Indy IMDB page to check out the spoiler - warning, you cannot easily forget this information.
