Nanayakkara as Shaman: The leader of a small village that recruits Indy to retrieve their stolen sacred Shiva lingam stone . </Li> <P> Actor Pat Roach plays the Thuggee overseer in the mines, Roach had previously appeared as a mechanic and the Grand Sherpa in Raiders of the Lost Ark . Spielberg, Lucas, Marshall, Kennedy, and Dan Aykroyd have cameos at the airport . </P> <P> Spielberg later recalled that when Lucas first approached him for Raiders of the Lost Ark, "George said if I directed the first one then I would have to direct a trilogy . He had three stories in mind . It turned out George did not have three stories in mind and we had to make up subsequent stories ." Both men later attributed the film's tone, which was darker than Raiders of the Lost Ark, to their personal moods following the breakups of their relationships . In addition, Lucas felt "it had to have been a dark film . The way Empire Strikes Back was the dark second act of the Star Wars trilogy ." </P> <P> Lucas set the film in an earlier year than the first to avoid repeating the use of Nazis as the villains . Spielberg originally wanted to bring Marion Ravenwood back, with Abner Ravenwood considered as a possible character . In developing the story, Lucas conceived of an opening chase scene with Indiana Jones on a motorcycle on the Great Wall of China, followed by the discovery of a "Lost World pastiche with a hidden valley inhabited by dinosaurs". Another idea was to feature the Monkey King as the plot device . However, Chinese authorities refused permission for them to film in the country, requiring a different setting . Lucas wrote a film treatment that included a haunted castle in Scotland, but Spielberg felt it was too similar to Poltergeist; so the setting transformed into a demonic temple in India . </P>
