- "Oh, yeah? What about that glamour gal you spent time with? Miss Kissy Face, what's her name, that singer..."
"Willie Scott."
"Yeah, her. Still in touch?"
"On and off. She moved out to Hollywood to be a star. Last I heard, she fell in love and married some bigshot director." - ―Marion Ravenwood and Indiana Jones, on Willie Scott's whereabouts.[src]
A man who became the husband of Willie Scott was a renowned Hollywood filmmaker who worked as a film director. Sometime after[1] her 1935 adventure with American archaeologist Indiana Jones in India,[2] Willie Scott moved out to Hollywood to be a star. From what Jones had last heard of her as of the mid-1950s, Scott had fallen for and married a man who Jones regarded as a "bigshot" director.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Indiana Jones director Steven Spielberg, the real-life husband of Kate Capshaw (Willie Scott).
Willie Scott's husband was part of Frank Darabont's script Indiana Jones and the City of the Gods, one of several unproduced screenplay drafts for what eventually became Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.[3] In the script, Indiana Jones mentions Willie's husband to Marion Ravenwood when they talk about how the former's romantic life has been since their 1936 separation.[1] Indy's mention of Scott's husband being a "bigshot" director was likely an in-joke in reference to Indiana Jones director Steven Spielberg, a renowned figure within Hollywood who married Willie Scott's actress Kate Capshaw in 1991.
Canonically, while Willie Scott isn't shown to marry nor have a romance to anyone other than Jones, her interest in getting a spouse is noted on Suzanne Weyn's junior novelization of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, which has Indy assuming that Lao Che may have been Scott's boyfriend and later suspecting she intends to romance Chattar Lal or Zalim Singh out of opportunism before finding the latter was a child.[4]
