AceShowbiz - Steven Spielberg teased that he "can't wait to work" with Harrison Ford in upcoming "Indiana Jones V" during a tribute to the actor at the British Academy Britannia Awards on Saturday, October 31. While honoring Harrison, Steven said, "I can't wait to work with you again on 'Indiana Jones 5'. This is NO announcement, just my fervent hope."
Amidst rumors that Chris Pratt would replace Harrison as Indiana, Frank Marshall, who worked with Chris in "Jurassic World" and produced all four "Indiana Jones" movies, was asked if the actor could take over after Harrison. "There are a lot of rumors," he told Total Film, "We haven't even sat down to talk about Indy yet... at some point we'll sit down. But there's a bunch of people who could probably take the baton."
Frank, however, admitted that they would "not (be) doing the Bond thing where we're going to call somebody else Indiana Jones... we have to figure this out."
Earlier this month, Steven hinted that he would do the fifth installment of "Indiana Jones" with Harrison on board to reprise his role. While promoting his movie "Bridge of Spies" which marked the fourth time he worked with Tom Hanks, the director said, "We've gotta figure this out because now. Tom is tied with Harrison Ford: Harrison and I did four movies, Tom and I have done four movies."
"Now I'll probably do an 'Indy 5' with Harrison. It'll be five for Harrison, four for Tom... [Then] I've got to make another one with Tom, so that will be five for Tom, five for Harrison," he continued, "And I think I'm going to leapfrog that way for the rest of my career. With Daniel Day-Lewis in everything else!"
