'Indiana Jones 5' News: Harrison Ford To Reprise Role In Sequel?

It has been a year since "Indiana Jones 5" was confirmed, but details about the much-awaited sequel still remain scarce. One thing is for sure, though. Harrison Ford is reprising his iconic role as Indiana Jones.

While it is still several years away from hitting the big screen, "Indiana Jones 5" is already the talk of the town. Fans are already making their own speculations as to what to expect in the upcoming film, which will begin production in 2018.

Last March, it was confirmed that Harrison Ford will reprise his role in the movie.

"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. It's rare to have such perfect combination of director, producers, actor and role, and we couldn't be more excited to embark on this adventure with Harrison and Steven," said Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn in a statement.

Spotted recently in Spain, the 73-year-old actor is now reportedly getting ready to start working on the "Indiana Jones" sequel.

Some fans imply that Ford is already too old for his role as Indiana Jones, but Steven Spielberg believe otherwise.

In a statement, Spielberg said, "As Harrison matures, so does his character. And yet he did so many of his own stunts in 'The Force Awakens.' He keeps himself in such brilliant physical shape that I don't believe when 2018 comes around, which is when I'm slated to direct the fifth installment coming out in 2019, I think Harrison is going to be able to do a lot of what the script is asking him to do."

"Indiana Jones 5" will hit theaters in July 2019.
