"While Kennedy, 66, was walking the BAFTA red carpet, before receiving the BAFTA Fellowship, she confirmed Indiana Jones 5 would not be a reboot.

'Harrison Ford will be involved… It’s not a reboot. It’s a continuation,' Kennedy added about the project."

Indiana Jones.....

but all evidence indicates that good ol' Indy is most likely a statutory rapist. During the original Raiders of the Lost Ark story meetings, George Lucas proposed that Indy "could have known this little girl when she was just a kid. Had an affair with her when she was 11." After Steven Spielberg protested, Lucas decided that "15 is right on the edge... Once she's 16 or 17, it's not interesting anymore."

Harrison Ford just did an interview where they talked about this, where he said there will be no other Indy but him.

IndieRaga said...

Finally an actor in Hollywood who's not at all insecure!!!

MEL GIBSON/LETHAL WEAPON?

Trapped said...

Wow they always said Harrison isn’t all squeaky clean as he acts.

norster said...

@Brayson87 No idea what is going on there ! But if Harrison Ford is in a new Indy film I might watch it, and I'm very picky ! But some characters with the right actor are iconic. And can anyone say that any actor has come close to Michael Keaton's Batman ?

Brayson87 said...

@Trapped, Just google his cheating and flying as a pilot, not sure which one is worse. Like he cheated on his wife with a drunken 19 year old Carrie Fisher vs nearly flying into an airliner.

We know what they do, to become "A list."
I have boycotted all films since 2009.

If yer wife doesn't understand when you bang a drunken 19y/o Princess Leia, there is something wrong with her.

squirrelmistress said...

i thought speilberg wanted her character to be 14? pretty sure that's what i read.

hhstarr said...

The last Indiana movie was horrible. And I am a fan of the franchise.

Meg said...

I didn't see the last Indiana Jones movie and I'll doubt I'll see the next one -- I can't watch some of these guys when they're trying to do action films this far into retirement age. Liam Neeson is another one; the next time someone gets "Taken" poor Liam needs to let them go, LOL. Stick with comedies & dramas!

Vita said...

Agreed this is Harrison and Indy. He will be in late 70s. I hope they dont kill the character off in the movie. I don't need to see the last moments of every beloved character, unless it really is essential to best story option.

Hhstarr-- agreed, that crystal skulls one did not compare to the rest.



Brayson87 said...

+1 Vita, That crystal skulls ones was a POS, it was like Godfather 3, why bother? They had f*cking Sean Connery plus the Holy Grail in the Last Crusade, perfect place to end it.

Unknown said...

After the disaster of Shia LaBouef as Indy’s illegitimate son, I would absolutely agree that Shia should never be allowed to appear in another Indy movie, let alone take over the Indy mantle. If that’s what Harrison Ford is trying to prevent, then I cannot hate on him for insisting on this.

Brayson87 said...

@ZZZ, Have you ever considered that you're being horribly offensive to albino people of all races? Like you're lumping in people of all ethnic backgrounds in with white people just because they have a genetic condition?

Adam Driver - Star Wars?

Vita said...

Agreed, Brayson87 & Unknown!

Marie said...

Please not another Indiana Jones. The last one was terrible. Harrison is too damn old. It's embarrassing. I know Chris Platt would kill to play Indiana.

Kimberley said...

Keanu Reeves - The Matrix 4.

catblue said...

yeah, Ford said flat out the other day when he dies, Indy will die, & I am here for that. There are a few roles I feel like are so much one actor's creation that nobody else should ever play them & Indy is one.

Anonymous said...

First, he sold his soul in some horrific ritual. to get into the "A list".
Next, he started crashing planes and helicopters, and dementia set in.
So yeah... he's quite the hero figure.

hunter said...

Funny, Chris Pratt could actually make a decent Indiana Jones.

Robin said...

I heard Harrison was Steven Spielberg's pot dealer, and that's how he got in the business!
