With shooting currently underway in New Haven, Connecticut, it didn't take long at all for someone to snag the first pic of Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) and his son (Shia LaBeouf). The duo appear to be riding a motorcycle, with LaBeouf driving (looking either embarrassed or about to sneeze) and Pops Jones firmly seated in the rear. Why should he be embarrassed? Well, his old man looks, well, old -- not to mention he's also in a suit and tie. As recent rumors suggested, LaBeouf does appear to be a greaser; his digs come complete with leather jacket, boots, blue jeans and a funky haircut.

Unlike the recently-released photo of Ford as Indiana Jones (and not Dr. Jones), this one is a tad less flattering. In it, the guy simply looks his age -- and, based on the pose LaBeouf is in, it's possible those were Steven Spielberg's intentions. I imagine the gimmick here is that Labeouf's character meets his Pops while he's in geeky professor mode and not in kickass, fedora hat-wearing mode. It makes sense, seeing as a majority of the scenes currently being shot take place on Yale's Old Campus. Also interesting is that these scenes are, according to some, supposedly the first scenes of the film. If that's the case, it means LaBeouf's character is introduced right away. So why is Indy's son at Yale (or whatever university it is that Dr. Jones teaches at)? Is he there looking for his father? Does his mother (Karen Allen???) bring him there? I guess we'll have to wait some time to find out; in the meantime, check out the pic (click on it for a larger version) and let us know what you think. Indiana Jones 4 arrives in theaters on May 22, 2008.

With shooting set to begin tomorrow, you knew it was only a matter of time before someone with a camera headed over to New Haven, Connecticut to snap some photos of the retro transformation currently underway. The Unofficial Indiana Jones Movie Blog now has a gallery of pics up for you to check out; all of which were taken in and around the town of New Haven and feature exterior shots of storefronts and such. In order to make this town look more like 1957 (the year the film is apparently set), folks had to find a ton of stuff appropriate with the time period. One building on Chapel Street received an entire facelift and a huge F.W. Woolworth sign has replaced whatever was there before (supposedly a Starbucks). Other little shops simply changed up their storefront windows, adding toys and clothes along with signs that read "These are not for sale."

From what we know, Indy won't be visiting any of these stores; instead, the street will be used for a chase scene of sorts featuring Indiana Jones on a motorcycle and a couple black vans. Yet, still, a tremendous amount of detail went into making this small town feel more like the 1950s. As we previously told you, shooting will take place for 10 days (with production taking off July 1 and July 4), and, apart from these street scenes, they'll be a good amount of stuff shot on Yale's Old Campus, including newly-written scenes inside Yale Law School. While we await a ton more spy photos to pop up, feel free to check out the first photo of Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, as well as video from the first day on set. Indiana Jones and the City of Gods (working title) will arrive in theaters on May 22, 2008.

When Jon Favreau told fans last week (via his MySpace page) that he was itching to get out of the cave they've been shooting in, he wasn't kidding. The first pics from the set of Iron Man have arrived online, giving us our first exterior glimpse of what Favreau's Afghanistan will look like ... even though it's being shot outside a little town called Lone Pine in California. And yes, they're shooting in a real cave. Though none of the actors are present (darn!), we get to check out the Stark Industries logo for the first time, as well as an assortment of weapons stacked inside a make-shift camouflage tent.

The cave in question is meant to serve as the location where Tony Stark is held captive against his will, forced to build weapons for an evil man (at least, that's what happens in the comics). While he's in captivity, Stark creates the Iron Man suit and uses it to escape. These are crucial scenes, and based on the images it seems Favreau is going for a real authentic look ... right down to the very real missile launchers that appear in a few of the pics. Aside from these desert scenes, apparently filming is also about to take place at the appropriately titled Downey Studios in Downey, CA. Not sure if they decided to film there because Robert Downey Jr. is playing Iron Man, but I did find it to be an interesting little sidenote. Iron Man will arrive in theaters on May 2, 2008; here's hoping Favreau decides to whet our appetites with photos of Downey Jr. before the month is out.
