LaBeouf’s character does not return in the film and is instead said to have died during the Vietnam War, causing a rift between Marion and Indy that remains until the couple reconciles at the end of the movie."I think they had some problems to solve with the story in terms of Shia LaBeouf not coming back, and they chose to create this story that Mutt had been killed in the war and that it put a wedge between Marion and Indy," Allen said.
"We just had a nice conversation to feel our way back into the characters and the circumstances of the characters," Allen said."He told me a bit about what they had been shooting and a bit about some of the references to Marion that existed in the film. So, we just kind of caught up with where the characters are at this moment."
