Harrison Ford to appear in Fifth Indiana film before he gets too old 

Harrison Ford plans on appearing as Indiana Jones for the fifth time in the next installment which, he told MTV is “Full of Opportunity”. The sixty-seven year old star wants filming to begin soon, while he’s still convincing as an action hero.  

Promising not to appear in a wheelchair, Ford says creator George Lucas is working on an idea for the fifth Indy movie and if it looks fruitful, everyone will be interested in having their share. Coming up with a story to develop the character more would make Ford ‘happy as pie’ he told Cinematic.  

His last reprisal of the role was in 2008 in “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”  – 19 years after the last film. Each time he takes on the role, he hopes to add more to the character. In “The Last Crusade” they introduced Sean Connery as Indy’s father, while “The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” saw Shia LaBeouf as his son while also bringing back Karen Allen to round out the character as more than an adventurer.  

Saying that Lucas’ idea of the next film was outrageous, Ford says he needs Indy 5 to ‘step on the gas like Short Round in a Shanghai taxi cab’. He would also like to see the relationship between Indy and his son Mutt be developed a bit further, but the story still lies in Lucas’ hands, which means it’s “full of opportunity” finishes Ford.
