Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom."Paramount Pictures/Lucasfilm by [Jonathon Dornbuch / Entertainment Weekly](/author/entertainment-weekly/) ## Jonathon Dornbuch / Entertainment Weekly May 5, 2015 5:51 PM CUT Ever since [Disney acquired the _Indiana Jones_ film rights](http://www.ew.com/article/2013/12/06/disney-indiana-jones "undefined") in 2013, there has been an assumption that some plans for another installment in the franchise would be forthcoming sooner rather than later. Now, producer Kathleen Kennedy has made it quite clear that Disney fully intends to keep Indy’s spirit alive on the big screen. [Speaking with _Vanity Fair_,](http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2015/05/indiana-jones-sequel-confirmed "undefined") Kennedy said that an _Indiana Jones_ movie “will one day be made inside this company,” though she couldn’t give specifics about when exactly the movie would ever come together. According to Kennedy, there’s no script being worked on “but we are talking about it.” There were recently rumors that _Jurassic World_ star (and erstwhile Burt Macklin) Chris Pratt [was being considered](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/01/27/chris-pratt-as-indiana-jones-good-idea-or-bad-idea "undefined") for the role made famous by Harrison Ford, but Kennedy did not address whether those rumors have any validity. Kennedy is, of course, busy with another major franchise revival for Disney—_Star Wars_, which you can read all of [EW’s continuing coverage here](http://www.ew.com/star-wars "undefined") before _The Force Awakens_ arrives later this year. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/05/05/disney-kathleen-kennedy-indiana-jones "undefined") _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com "undefined")_._ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3847266/disney-next-indiana-jones-film/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3847266/disney-next-indiana-jones-film/"},"headline":"Disney Is 'Talking About' the Next Indiana Jones Film","datePublished":"2015-05-05T17:51:05.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T06:56:39.734Z","description":"Producer Kathleen Kennedy says Disney 'will one day' make an Indy movie","url":"https://time.com/3847266/disney-next-indiana-jones-film/","keywords":["movies","Disney"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf3aaff22b988fbcf/6987ee71e53aba94cc4dbb0e/264979_full.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Jonathon Dornbuch / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf3aaff22b988fbcf/6987ee71e53aba94cc4dbb0e/264979_full.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones in \"Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.\"","caption":"Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones in \"Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.\"","creditText":"Paramount Pictures/Lucasfilm","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3847266/disney-next-indiana-jones-film/","name":"Disney Is 'Talking About' the Next Indiana Jones Film"}}]}] ```
