Ford says he's fit to play Indiana Jones 2 hours, 1 minute ago



Harrison Ford says he feels "fit to continue" to play Indiana Jones despite growing older. Ford, 64, said at the inaugural Rome Film Festival on Friday that he was delighted to team up again with directors Steven Spielberg and George Lucas for the film. Lucas co-wrote and executive produced the earlier films, which Spielberg directed.

"We did three films that stay within the same block of time. We need to move on for artistic reasons and obvious physical reasons," Ford said at a news conference. "I feel fit to continue and bring the same physical action."

"Indiana Jones 4" has been in development for over a decade, but the production has recently gained momentum. Lucas has said he and Spielberg, who would direct, are working on a script, though no details have been disclosed.

Ford played Indiana Jones in 1981's "Raiders of the Lost Ark," 1984's "Temple of Doom" and 1989's "The Last Crusade." In the last film, Jones' father was played by Sean Connery, who Ford said might also appear in the planned fourth feature.

"He's part of the emotional fabric of these films. I think there may be an opportunity, I believe that Sean is still willing and I'd be delighted if he joined us," said Ford.

Connery, who attended the Rome event last week, has said that no offer had been made.

Ford declined to provide details about a shooting schedule or film locations, adding that the directors were not yet finished with the script.

"I think it's a real opportunity to make a film as successful ... as the ones we've made before," he said.

That would be great to see again. The Last Crusade was the best one IMHO.

I like them all. Looking forward to another one. Ford and Connery were good together..

I haven't introduced Gage to this series yet, but I am sure he will like them.

There is NO continuing the title without him.

I really dislike film trilogies that do not have the original character, no matter how aged that character is.

I hope it's a go. :up:

Like how I slipped trilogy into my post?
Nice.:D

Your dislike for trilogies is evident. :D

Nope. Not this time. I was being entirely silly and never intended to disparage.

New leaf Tallboy. Applies to all of us. ;)

Yeah, I hear the title is "Indiana Jones and the Early Bird Special."

Not to be outdone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris, Steven Segal, and Sylvester Stallone are all also planning sequels. The most notable of which is Sly's "Rocky VI: Only Two More After This One, I Promise."

I am not sure that any of those old farts including Mr. Ford is FIT enough for the demands in the VORTEX (SP) of another action movie. One TRILOGY each was enough. :D Dennis. I know but it is early. aaanndd equal time bs

[2ndMDRebel]

They can't have Indiana Jones without Mr Ford, he's the centrifugal character of the series. :D

Ford is the only way to go!

I was born the same exact day as Ford who also was born in Illinois. I would go a round with Tyson for that kind of money. I wonder if he has a MM. He needs one.

[duhtroll]

Nowadays you could go 3 or 4 rounds with Tyson. Before you beat his sorry a$$ that is.

Where's the article that he's "very serious" about fighting women now?

Oh yeah: http://www.suntimes.com/sports/99170,CST-SPT-swire17.article

Just goes to show you that Mr Fords good taste in companions is helping to keep him young and fit. IMHO...
