A lot of people have their own theories about "Indiana Jones 5," and some even think that the franchise's next big star will be "Jurassic World" actor Chris Pratt.
However, during a recent interview with Yahoo! Movies, director Steven Spielberg all but confirmed that it will still be original star Harrison Ford who will lead the fifth film of the franchise.
He was tallying the number of movies he did with Ford and Tom Hanks. Both actors have worked with him a total of four times each, with Hanks being the most recent player with the Cold War thriller called "Bridge of Spies."
"We've gotta figure this out because now, Tom is tied with Harrison Ford: Harrison and I did four movies, Tom and I have done four movies," Spielberg explained. "Now I'll probably do an 'Indy 5' with Harrison, so it'll be five for Harrison, four for Tom."
Spielberg said that he wants both actors to be tied with the number of films, so right after "Indiana Jones 5," he is keen to jump back to another project with Hanks.
"I've got to make another one with Tom, that'll be five for Tom, five for Harrison. And I think I'm going to leapfrog that way for the rest of my career. With Daniel Day-Lewis in everything else!" he said.
Producer Kathleen Kennedy confirmed back in May that an "Indiana Jones 5" will indeed happen, though they have not yet determined a timeline for it. "We haven't started working on a script yet," she also admitted.
A lot of filmmakers refuse to watch videos on their phones because they feel like it's insulting to their craft, but Spielberg does not seem to mind.
"My generation didn't have that," Spielberg said of streaming media. "We had TV and movies, that was it. But my kids, and myself, we have so many opportunities to see what so many people are thinking about the world and how they see the world and how they're expressing it. So this is one of the most golden times I think we've ever experienced."
What Spielberg does not like, on the other hand, is to watch his own movies. If he really had to pick one that he'd have to watch over and over again, he would choose "Raiders of the Lost Ark."
"I have trouble watching my movies, except I can watch them when I'm showing them to my kids for the first time," he said. "Like, I won't watch 'E.T.' by myself, but I've shown 'E.T.' to every one of my seven children at the appropriate age, and I've enjoyed watching a movie like that that I made through their eyes, because I see it in a different way every time."
