Next Harry Potter?
 

I spot this article while I was roaming around the internet, and basically, the publisher responsible for the Harry Potter books, are planning to release a story simply call "Tunnels", which revolves around an archeologist boy.

From what I read, I have to assume this is suppose to be the "Indiane Jones for the young generation".

There used to be a TV show called Young Indiana Jones, so unless they rent or buy the right to that, the story cannot be too similar. Lucas Arts holds a tight reighn on thier franchises and usually does not allow for external usage of there characters without permission. (George owns Indiana) (If my memory is correct?)

MOnty :-/

indiana jones, yes george lucas owns that.

Uh, I don't think it's actually supposed to be Indiana Jones. It's just, y'know, a simile.

Also, from reading the article if I'm not mistaken the story is not actually going to be written by J.K., just published by the same publisher.

Indiana Jones for the young generation? Sorry, Rowling. Indy's coming back next year & so will his popularity with kids.:bendy:
