kongisking said:Since we're all so obsessed with an actor that's basically a Harrison clone, why not a guy who's got experience with playing a 1940's-era Nazi-punching hero?

sheffsteve said:I'm finding it very hard to consider the role being recast. All too often suggestions fall into the category of 'people who look a little bit like Harrison Ford' and in my opinion if you're going to recast then you have to recast for the character and not the previous actor, just like they have done with Bond.
sheffsteve said:Ford was almost 40 when Raiders came out so should we be looking for a young man like Pratt?
gioA said:Anybody thought of this as a way of recasting?
indy discovers the fountain of youth and rejuvenates into a younger actor.
might be a way of getting some sort of continuity rather than a reboot.
after all it works for dr who!
Attila the Professor said:But then you lose the time period. The 1930s are the classical era for the character; the surrounding decades work just fine, but archetypally the character belongs in the 1930s. Any sort of rejuvenation story just introduces a James Bond-esque forward progression, albeit with new films taking place not in the present, but about 50 years prior to it. That's actually a very interesting idea for a film series, but it doesn't suit Indy.
Attila the Professor said:Pratt's 35. Ford was 39 when Raiders came out. So by the time a film happened, he'd be practically the same age.
