While details are scarce and it is reportedly very early in the process, Deadline reports that the studio is considering Pratt to play the iconic Harrison Ford character in a new franchise. Latino Review had reported last spring that an Indy reboot was a possibility at the studio, and that Bradley Cooper (another Guardians player!) was one of the names at the top of their list. Of course, that was before Guardians opened and made Pratt a bona fide movie star.LR’s El Mayimbe also tweeted today that Disney is considering a 2018-2019 timeframe for the Indiana Jones reboot.Pratt starts shooting The Magnificent Seven (remake!) with Denzel Washington and director Antoine Fuqua in April. And he of course has Jurassic World coming out in June. But what do you guys think of the actor taking on the role of Indiana Jones?
