Steven Spielberg is reportedly interested in directing an Indiana Jones reboot with Chris Pratt taking up the mantle of the whip-cracking archaeologist.

While the project is in the earliest stages of development, Spielberg’s interest appears to hinge on landing a suitable script, according to Deadline.

Last month, it was reported that Pratt, best known for his role as Star-Lord in Marvel’s cosmic blockbuster Guardians of the Galaxy, could replace Harrison Ford in an Indiana Jones reboot.

Ford has played in all four Spielberg-directed Indiana Jones movies. Guardians of the Galaxy even paid homage to Raiders of the Lost Ark in a scene where Star-Lord snatches the Orb from its resting place.

A new Indy adventure is likely a few years away. Pratt next stars in Jurassic World, which Spielberg executive produced. IGN Logo
