I can't believe he's 78. Hell, he'll be 79 during filming. Nevertheless, knowing Disney, they'll probably kill him off like they did his Han Solo character.

I’m fine with it. Even Harrison and an IJ sequel at 50% is better than most slop out there. Worth at least a watch.

They’re not going to let George Lucas interfere with the plot again?

It will be 99 percent stunt doubles and CGI.

My wife and I were watching an old Charlton Heston movie, called “Secret of the Incas”.

Heston wears the same hat, bag, and whip. It looked familiar, then it hit me, Spielberg stole Hestons costume for Indiana Jones. I looked it up and sure enough, the wardrobe designer wrote they watched the movie several times and appropriated Heston’s costume.

They also stole the idea for the crystal that focuses the sun’s rays on the location of the ark.

I found what the title will be:

“Indiana Jones and the Lost Shipping Container of Ballots”

Yeah, the idiotic "killing people off" has long been a lame device for unimaginative TV and movie writers. The Star Wars franchise could have done a LOT, and had a whole lot of fun, with an aging-but-still-trying-to-be-cool Han Solo.

But, you know, what's totally missing in millennial screenwriters is any sense of FUN at all. It's like they feel they'll never impress the suits unless they're dark and bleak.

He will be as old as his “daddy” Sean Connery. Will his “son” be along?

At 78, he’s slowed down a bit. The new movie will be called “Indiana Jones vs. the Grammar Nazis.

Capsule bio....There's a great pic of Ford on Wiki....bearded, nice-looking at 78 yrs old, but showing his age. I'm sure they're interviewing stunt doubles as we speak.

Born in Chicago, German/Irish father, Jewish mother, married three times, lives in LA....his estimated net worth as of 2020 is $230 million, his films have grossed over $6 billion in his long career, making him currently the 2nd highest-grossing movie star on the planet.

He's also a liberal DemoRat whacko environmentalist, anti-Trumper, he's anti-gun and he endorsed Biden in the presidential election.

Who is that special character that everybody seems to hate?
Jar Jar Brinks? Something like that. He was in one movie only. No follow up action figures. No nothing.

He ruined the sequel to the movie that cemented him as a box-office star.

Most everybody on this thread is disgusted with Ford being cast, once again, at age 78, as Indiana Jones. I agree completely, not because he wasn't great in the first or subsequent sequels, but because we can't suspend our belief in reality enough to accept what b.s. hollywood special effects will show. He's old; that doesn't discount him but he'll not have the same energy or stamina he once had.

Donald Trump will be 78 in 2024. The human body and mind can only go so far. Do I know people in their 80s and 90s that are sharp as a tac? Of course. Can they take the 'pressure' and demands of high positions and be effective? No.

It's now, 2020, or never. Stop with the clinging to 2024.

Most likely it will be Indiana Jones and the Mystery on the Diversity Express.

No thanks.

Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner are still alive. Maybe a “ Romancing the Stone” sequel is in the works.
