About a week ago, rumors started to form about an Indiana Jones Reboot and the fact that Chris Pratt would be taking place as the leading man. The leading role has been Harrison Ford’s for years and now that the studio reportedly wants to reboot the movie, they are thinking they need a fresh face for the action. Chris Pratt is a rising star and has been in some of the most popular movies recently.
Disney and Lucasfilm finalized a deal that gave Disney the rights to the Star Wars movies, but what many did not realize is that Indiana Jones went along with it. The Indiana Jones Reboot would be the fifth installment to the Indiana Jones movie series and when asked about it, Disney CEO said that they are “pacing themselves”. Nothing is official when it comes to Chris Pratt taking over, but he said that it would be an “awesome opportunity”.
Pratt did not say there was any truth to the rumors, but that does not stop a lot of the rumor sites from posting about it and even comparing photos of the two stars side-by-side. Chris Pratt became a big star with recent box office hits like The LEGO Movie and Guardians of the Galaxy. Playing one of the most recognizable characters in movie history would be an accomplishment even larger than the two movies that put him at the top in my critics eye’s.
In a recent video that was obtained by internet news sites, Chris Pratt was caught at the airport when he got back from a hunting trip. As the questions started to flow about the possibility of playing in the new action reboot, the actor clearly did not know what to say. Almost coming to terms with the questions as frustrated over internet rumors, but not quite getting into it that far. Fans of the star would love to see him in the movie, but that will be up to the studio in the end.
The Indiana Jones Reboot would be the fifth installment to the movie series that has won worldwide acclaim over the years. Starting back in 1981, the movie was such a huge success that Harrison Ford was tossed into stardom very quickly. The fourth film was released in 2008 and seemingly was the end of the movie series that was the creation of George Lucas and is now owned by Disney Films.
