Son of Indy?

A strange little rumour has popped up, taken from a German interview with Lucas in Vara magazine. Apparently, Lucas let slip that Indy will have a son in Indy 4, then goes on to suggest that he already has an actor in mind for the role.

"Indiana Jones? Spielberg directs, and Indiana gets a son. Yes, I know who. But I won't tell you yet."

Anyway, here's hoping it's either Lucas joking around, or something getting lost in the translation. Son of Indy could be interesting, but at the same time, I'd hate to see someone like Ben Affleck in an Indy film. And, since it will be the last film, I was rather hoping they wouldn't play the 'surprise new family member' card again.

Btw, it's been everywhere, but since I haven't seen it mentioned here...I'm sure everyone has read that Frank Darabont is suspected of being the frontrunner to pen the script.
