Do you think he's a new actor then?
He was even in Buffy, if you go back far enough :cry:

Nah it wont, if you click the original tweet just some prat chucking in Pascal looking for clicks, 90% of the replies are disagreeing with the choice anyway.

******* awful idea regardless.

The Indiana Jones Trilogy should be left alone, it doesn't need rebooting. LucasFilm needs to get off their arse and make something new and good not reheating the same old turds.

Approaching middle-aged/middle-aged Harrison Ford was the perfect Indy. The original trilogy is excellent.

Oddly enough, I didn't mind the Crystal Skulls that much.

The di1do of destiny can do one though.

Isn't this basically what most legacy news sites do these days, a perpetual funnel to and from a source of af a source of a sauce that's basically stone soup?

Indiana Jones was/is 80s Harrison Ford.

Fine they can reboot the franchise again, re-cast etc but as recent efforts have shown from many genres, with these types of singular character/actor-star embedded films, reboots struggle because...

Another 10 years and we'll have John Wick reeebooting with Austin Butler instead of Keanu.

They been trying to reboot multiple things and failing and loosing loads of money.

Surely it’s worth trying something new and hope you strike gold?

Dunno about loads, A quick google search shows, DailyMail, OcUK (this thread by BigPig), WomansDay, some X posts and some facebook posts (in the last 24 hours).

I'm gonna guess the comments sections of those pages are full of people who have some issue with Pedro's personal views and family members more than his acting skills :)


p.s. They shouldn't reboot Indy for many reasons, and I doubt any actor could pull it off even if they tried!

Some have worked though. IJ Crystal Skull took notably more than the originals at the cinema (prob not in consideration of merch and vhs etc). Jurassic World has consistently done well compared to Jurassic Park 93' then its dwindling sequels to obscurity.

Even those genres super divisive with the fans have been good, i.e. a lot of the superhero genres have rebooted well across both DC and Marvel. Marvel didn't work consistently well more recently where they simply took it in a different direction post End Game. Star Wars consistently re-continued / re-booted well at the cinema (bar Solo ie where IP totally tied to original to Actor rather than broader story/universe). Star Trek rebooted pretty well over the years.

Tron Legacy, Blade Runner, Dune, all notably better (inflation adjusted)

Pedro Pascal though isn't a box office draw they hope he is, same issue with the upcoming Fantastic 4.

Indiana Jones Dial of Destiny was just boring. Never mind the characters and politics behind it etc, film was just meh. Watching Harrison Ford as an ancient ageing tomb guardian at the holy grail resting place, continuing on from the last crusade for 2 hours, pottering about biding his time would have been more entertaining.
