When you think of Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, is that picture what you think of? Well, Harrison Ford just celebrated his 64th birthday. Indiana Jones is 64. Does anyone still really think they’re going to make an Indiana Jones 4 movie? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
I’ve said all along (for about 5 years now) that the story of an older Indiana Jones interests me. But now this is just getting silly. Let’s put this into perspective shall we? At 64, Harrison Ford is now:
– 5 years OLDER than Sean Connery was when they made Last Crusade
– 4 years OLDER than Ian McKellen was when he played Gandalf in the first Lord of the Rings movie
– 2 years OLDER than Alec Guinness was when he played Obi Wan Kenobi in Star Wars
– 6 years OLDER than James Earl Jones was when he was in Field of Dreams
– 2 years OLDER than Kris Kristofferson was as Whistler in Blade
You get the point.
So… who still wants to see another Indiana Jones movie? Keep in in mind. Even if they announced it today, the very earliest they’d start shooting is next year when he’s 65. Yeah, this is NEVER going to happen.
