Mutt Williams (Henry Walton Jones III) is a fictional character in the Indiana Jones franchise, portrayed by Shia LaBeouf.[1] He is introduced in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull as a motorcycle-riding greaser and becomes Indiana Jones's sidekick. He is the son of former bar owner Marion Ravenwood and archaeologist Indiana Jones, although Jones and Mutt are unaware of their relationship until the events of Crystal Skull. Mutt has a horizontal scar across his right cheek inflicted during a duel with Irina Spalko. Mutt has stated that his prep-school education has made him "handy with a blade." The book explains Mutt was champion on the fencing team, but was kicked out of school for placing bets on his matches.
[edit] Conception and creationFrank Marshall said Mutt represents a youthful arrogance, to show Indiana is older and wiser.[2] LaBeouf was Spielberg's first and only choice for the role.[3] Excited at the prospect of being in an Indiana Jones film, LaBeouf signed on without reading the script and did not know what character he would play.[4] LaBeouf watched Blackboard Jungle, Rebel Without a Cause and The Wild One to get into his character's mind-set, copying mannerisms and words from characters in those films, such as the use of a switchblade as a weapon.[5] Authentic 1950's jackets were found for LaBeouf's costume,[6] while Harley-Davidson provided his motorcycle.[7] George Lucas was interested in producing a spin-off about Mutt and his own adventures, with Indiana in a supporting role. However Lucas later retracted a statement on the possibility of a spin-off series or LaBeouf taking over as the lead of the Indiana Jones series, stating "Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones, no Harrison means no Indy" [8] Mutt's occupation prior to meeting up with Indy is that of a motorcycle mechanic. It is also revealed that his mother attempted to send him through several prep schools which he found of little interest. While at school it is learned that he excelled at sports education, including fencing. Two 3¾ inch figures of Mutt,[9] a deluxe figure of him on his motorcycle,[10] an Adventures Heroes figurine,[11] and a 12 inch figure were released in 2008.[12] Mutt is available in four Lego Indiana Jones sets based on Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.[13] [edit] See also
