EXCLUSIVE: Here’s one from the helluva good idea department. Marvel offerings are soaring, and Star Wars is being reinvigorated by director JJ Abrams. Now, Disney has just started to turn its attention to reviving the Indiana Indiana Jones bullwhipJones franchise after buying the rights from Paramount in 2013. I’m cautioned that while things are very early, I hear the studio has set its sights on Chris Pratt as the swashbuckling archaeologist they hope to build the new franchise around, the role made famous by Harrison Ford in Raiders Of The Lost Ark. Pratt jumped to leading-man movie status with his performance in last year’s blockbuster Guardians Of The Galaxy for Marvel and Disney. He starts The Magnificent Seven with Denzel Washington and director Antoine Fuqua in April for MGM and Sony, and there’s the inevitable Guardians Of The Galaxy sequel. Disney won’t comment and all this is admittedly early, so let’s chalk it up as a dishy informed rumor for now and keep an eye on it.

Crazy thing is the Marvel properties, Indiana Jones, and Star Wars are all Disney related. -
Actually they shouldnt use him for this he's already tied to gotg and jurassic park. They should go with Bradley Cooper or someone like that if they aren't going to usr Harrison Ford.

Meh, I think they might be able to do better than that I just don't think Indiana Jones when I see Chris Pratt. Harrison Ford left some big shoes to fill. Like Han Solo I can't see anybody else being Indiana Jones.

Never got a good actor vibe from the guy. Acting wise the best ive seen from him was in "Moneyball" Only seen him in Parks and Rec, Moneyball, and Guardians though. -
They really trying to make Pratt into that dude tho...
-
He married Anna Feris
Surprised they haven't been cast in a film together yet
It could be hilarious -
