Disney has just announced that Harrison Ford will be reprising his iconic role as Indiana Jones in the fifth installment in the series with Steven Spielberg returning to the director’s chair. Pic will hit screens on July 19, 2019. Spielberg directed the previous four pics and this one has yet to be titled. Franchise vets Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall will produce.

“Indiana Jones is one of the greatest heroes in cinematic history, and we can’t wait to bring him back to the screen in 2019,” said Alan Horn, Chairman, The Walt Disney Studios in a statement. “It’s rare to have such a perfect combination of director, producers, actor and role, and we couldn’t be more excited to embark on this adventure with Harrison and Steven.”

Famed archaeologist and explorer Indiana Jones was introduced in 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark – one of AFI’s 100 Greatest American Films of All Time – and later thrilled audiences in 1984’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, 1989’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. All together, the four titles grossed nearly $2 billion at the global box office. Among the top Memorial Day openers, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has the second highest four-day take with $126.9M behind Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End which debuted to $139.8M.

I generally like the darker movies and as such, The Empire Strikes Back is my favorite Star Wars film to date.

But nothing about Temple worked for me. Not the location, the characters, the sub-characters or the plot.

I've always loved Temple.

Love that it's dark and kinda mean. Love the action and pace.

I wish Spielberg would quit apologizing for it because it's pure pulpy fun. Nothing wrong with that

Leaving aside the obvious age jokes, there's no reason to make this film. He's already too old for action, hence the need to bring in Psycho Boy in the last film as his son. There is literally just... no... reason. They'd be better suited simply making a prequel. Problem is, Pratt will soon be 37; Ford was only 39 when he made "Raiders" so, in actuality, Pratt is not a good pick for a prequel. They'd actually be better off with Anthony Ingruber, who played the younger version of Ford in "Age of Adaline", actually looks MORE like Ford than Pratt does, and is only 26.

As for "Crystal Skull", I had no issue with it. I find it funny that most peoples' issue was with the whole alien aspect. So, let's see: the total fiction of an Ark of the Covenant is okay because it's religious, and the total fiction of the Shankara Stones is okay because it's religious, and the total fiction of the Holy Grail is okay because it's religious, but the possibility of aliens (which is much more likely than a box holding commandments that spouts fire, or a cup that gives everlasting life) is a deal-breaker? Oooookay....

Also needed a break from the Nazis. The Thugees were a real cult in India that the British exterminated but their thing was strangulation rather than pulling hearts out.

Still better than Crystal Skull.

my wife loves those movies. every time she sees it on TV, she has to watch it.

that's when I go mow the grass, or take a nap, or do anything else to avoid watching them. I gave them a solid try a few times. Just can't get into them at all. Or Star Wars.....I've never made it through a sitting of any of the Star Wars. Even as a little kid I was like "....yeah.....I'm out".

Spoiler!

Indy is alive in his 90's during the LucasFilm TV show, which ran 24 episodes and 4 TV movies.

I seriously doubt they'd turn their back on it.

**Bowser** · 03-16-2016, 12:16 AM

I blame Star Wars for making 2 billion worldwide in two months for this.

Ford needs to start taking on Wilford Brimley type roles. He'd be good at it now. Grumpy bastard.

So Harrison Ford doesn't want to make anymore Star Wars movies so he can make Indiana Jones movies? Is that why they killed Han Solo off in The Force Awakens?
