Karen Allen Interview – June Issue of ‘More’ magazine
She was the first crush of a million boys, the spunky role model for a generation of girls. As Marion Ravenwood, the game-for-anything heroine of 1981′s Raiders of the Lost Ark, Karen Allen threw punches, drank burly men under the table and even managed to look good in a fussy white dress with a big flower on her backside.
On May 22nd, at 56, she’s reprising her iconic role in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. She’ll also be on the June cover of ‘More‘, on newsstands May 20th, discussing what she’s been up to since her first turn at Marion, what it’s like to do an action movie at 56 and more.
Karen Allen thrilled to be in ‘Indiana Jones 4′
Karen Allen has revealed that she is thrilled to be reprising her role as Marion Ravenwood in the new Indiana Jones movie.
The actress, who is now a fashion designer, said she had no idea that she would be returning to the franchise until director Steven Spielberg called her last year.
She told “There had been a rumour for many, many years that they were trying to find a script everybody was going to be happy with.
Allen played Indy’s (Harrison Ford) love interest in first instalment Raiders Of The Lost Ark in 1981, but did not feature in its two sequels.
