    For the love of God, tell me this is a joke. Please. Bueller?

    1. WEB

      No kidding. Couldn’t agree with you more.

    Stop it with remake & reboots, just let Indiana Jones alone. You would think after all the other remakes that Disney has done & flopped, that learned their lesson & do something original but they’re determined to loose billions of more dollars. Also Dwayne Johnson as the new Indiana Jones would be a terrible idea & yet again replacing a white character for a black

    Mr. Dwayne Johnson is a great actor but he’s no Indiana Jones.

  4. Jennifer Hart

    Save your money, Disney, I will not be watching. We the people enjoy movies more when we feel a connection with the stars. On Maui, Dwayne knew Oprah, but forgot the rest of us, especially Maui.

    Don’t let this stuff happen.

    If we need indiana jones, give it chris prat. Or some one new.
    Nothing against the rock ,but. His to big / muscle of a guy to play indiana.

    Dwayne Johnson is an average actor at best. Why does Disney want him in any of their movies? Just goes to show how thin the actor pool is right now.

    1. Mike K.

      This is just a bad idea…The rock..really?! He is no Indiana Jones. Not even close. Need to stop rebooting these iconic movies.. Give it a rest already.

  7. Marie

    Oh hell no! Ford is right. When he’s done with the character, that should be it for Indy. Some characters and films….like Indiana Jones and Jack Sparrow and Pirates….are just too iconic to keep going once the actor(s) who portray them, stop.

  8. Linds

    Why can’t they just stop trying to make something that is already good again and again. Can’t they just create something new and leave these iconic movies alone.

    1. Blackstar

      I am in agreement with you.

  9. Hope

    Make another character and let Indy remain Harrison Ford. Let the character have an ending not a reincarnation or reboot! Stop destroying iconic characters and use that creative genius to create! Same with all the other reboots.

  10. Shelly

    Dwayne Johnson is not the answer. Leave Indy alone. There are just certain things that should be left to fade away with the original actor. That’s like remaking Star Trek, Star Wars. More to the point, look what Disney has done to live action animation.

  11. Margaret

    Interesting! Can’t imagine anyone but Harrison Ford as Indy but i do love Dwane so will be love ok’ing forward to seeing the new idea!

  12. Dana

    The series should NEVER be redone!! Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones! Anything else is blasphemy!

  13. John

    That’s I huge nope for me.

    Time to find a new actor/actress. Not talking about a relative of existing or friends of a executive. Get some new blood in Hollywood and give someone else a chance. Especially with animated movies. Don’t need a top actor to do voice over

  15. Linda Camacho

    Behind the scenes will take the magic out of the movies. What a mistake.

  16. Bob jocks

    No no no lousy actor

  17. Barbie

    Hell, no! Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones! Since Harrison Ford is 80 years old, I doubt if there’s going to be another Indiana Jones movie… If there is kudos to Harrison Ford… But this is his character, he developed it, and just like Spock… Anything with Spock that doesn’t have Leonard Nimoy in it I don’t watch it in the same thing goes for Indiana Jones… These two actors made their characters what they are today… We don’t need a modern spin or a modern actor taking on these parts…

    This is unironically the worst idea since Greedo shooting first.
    Stop. Just stop. Well pretend the last movie never happened. Nobody wants to watch Phoebe. Disney’s forgetting it’s INDIANA JONES. Nobody wants to see Dwayne Johnson reprise his role from Jumanji in a slightly more serious tone. Make another franchise instead. STOP NECROMANCING INDY!

  19. Carolyn

    Noooooooo. Harrison Ford is the one and only Indy. No offence to Dwayne Johnson.

  20. I’m the Archaeologist who Lucasfilm used to help create the Indy.character and I recommend that Chris Pratt assume the roll and I have the perfect plot that people would love to see.

  21. Louie

    Ugh, just let Indiana die. You already have abused him too much since the crystal skull. Hollywood shills have no creativity nor guts anymore, they keep regurgitating the same witless nostalgica drivel until they suck any penny from it and raze it to the ground

  22. Doc d

    No! Love the rock but Chris Pratt is the next indy of there is one. I don’t buy the rock being a college professor! In fact, the thought of it makes me laugh. Bad casting! Clearly Chris Pratt!

  23. So Dwayne is going to be Indiana Jones AND on the Black Pearl? I like some of his movies but don’t want him replacing the actual well known characters.

  24. LMS

    Let Indiana Jones alone!

  25. Dave

    Reading the comments already it seems that most people seem to agree on the same thing, no way Dwayne Johnson

  26. Ruth

    There is only one Indy. And that’s Harrison Ford. Why does Disney feel the need to reboot movies and then they flop at the movies? Haunted Mansion wasn’t that good neither was the Little Mermaid was ok. Disney try making something new for a change and leave the classic movies back and bring back Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow!

  27. Maria

    Just stop already!! The lack of creativity and NEW ideas from Disney is disheartening, dare I say insulting. Walt must be tossing in his grave at what his beloved company has become.

  28. Brian Lee

    Prefer another Walking Tall sequel. The Rock was great in that role and knocked it out of the park.
