At the last People's Choice Awards, hosted by his wife Anna Faris and her "Mom" co-star Allison Janney, Chris Pratt poked fun at the amount of roles that have been raining down on him since his successful 2014 with films like the widely successful "The Lego Movie" - now, the latest celebrity gossip says he'll be leading the Indiana Jones reboot's cast!
It's a time for reboots and sequels, and, even more interestingly, it's a time for Harrison Ford's classic characters to come back to life: this year will see his return as Han Solo in "Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens," and rumor has it that there are new actors getting considered for the Indiana Jones reboot cast - and Shia LaBeouf, who played Indy's son in "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," is nowhere to be seen.
According to Deadline, the website responsible for leaking casting choices such as Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange and Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones, has now reported that the most likely scenario for the Indiana Jones reboot cast looks like it will star another famous Disney hero: Chris Pratt, who played Star Lord in the summer Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster "The Guardians of the Galaxy."
As Forbes reports, ever since Walt Disney Pictures bought George Lucas' Lucasfilm, the world has been aching to know whether they'd be following the steps taken for "Star Wars" and make a new movie or two - and word has it that, finally, there's a new movie about the famous archeologist in the early development stages, and the new Indiana Jones reboot cast will feature, at least, one of the actors from "Guardians."
Actually, website Screen Rant reports that Pratt isn't the studio's only choice for the title role in the new movie about the man who found the Ark of Covenant and the Holy Grail during the Nazi regime: Bradley Cooper, his "Guardians" co-star (he played the voice of Rocket Raccoon), is another possible option to lead the Indiana Jones reboot cast.
