Harrison
Ford Fit To Play
Indiana
Actor
Harrison
Ford
has said he feels "fit"
at the age of 64 to
reprise the role of
action hero Indiana
Jones.
Ford,
who last played the part
in 1989's The Last
Crusade, said he could
"bring the same physical
action" to a fourth
movie.
George
Lucas and Steven
Spielberg have said they
are working on a script
for the fourth movie,
which has been in
development for more
than 10
years.
Ford
said that Sean Connery
may return as Indiana
Jones'
father.
"He's
part of the emotional
fabric of these films. I
believe that Sean is
still willing and I'd be
delighted if he joined
us," said the actor at
the Rome Film
Festival.
Former
James Bond star Connery,
who was at the Rome
event last week, said
that no offer had been
made.
Ford
did not disclose any
further details about a
possible filming
schedule or locations,
adding that Lucas and
Spielberg - who worked
on the previous films -
have yet to complete a
script.
"I
think it's a real
opportunity to make a
film as successful as
the ones we've made
before," he
said.
The
first two films in the
Indiana Jones trilogy
were Raiders of The Lost
Ark (1981) and 1984's
Temple of
Doom.
The
trilogy picked up a
total of seven Academy
Award nominations, while
Steven Spielberg gained
a best director
nomination for Raiders
of The Lost
Ark.
