Bring back Short Round!

I'd love to see an adult Short Round return, helping Indy in his latest adventure, maybe he’s an archaeologist too now.
I don’t much care for Willie Scott but it would be fun to have a female sidekick aiding Doctor Jones, only to find out she's his and Willie Scott’s daughter! Just like Kingdom Skull with Mutt, It's like poetry, they rhyme.

I like the idea. Jonathan Ke Quan moved away from acting pretty early on though. Would you bring him back or cast someone else?

Cast someone else, maybe make him large now, making his name a bit of a joke LOL

Nah apparently Short Round was left in Shanghai to be an opium and heroin addict:

Lao Che' was a psycho drug dealer big boss for the "Green Gang" mafia in Shanghai. Who worked for the western countries narcotics trade. Very sad of Short Round's fate. Dumped back in Shanghai, and "Shanghaied" kidnapped to be a slave cabin boy in the American navy:
