Daily Mail talks Indy V

UK paper The Daily Mail reported Harrison Ford gave an interview with ExtraTV about Indy V

 

here's what they had to say:

 

Most 70-year-olds are starting to take life easy, slow down and take stock.

 

...Unless they're Harrison Ford of course.

 

The Hollywood OAP is set to dust off his whip and don that fedora once again to play Indiana Jones in a fifth film.

 

Ford is currently 69, but will have become a septuagenarian by the time filming starts late next year.

 

The grandfather-of-three recently hinted he would like to reprise the role.

 

In an interview with ExtraTV he said: 'I have strong ambition to do it while I'm still alive.

 

'I'm available, I'm not cheap, but I'm available!'

 

Now director Steven Spielberg has confirmed that George Lucas is penning the story for the next installment.

 

'George is working on Indy V,' Spielberg told Empire Magazine.

 

'We haven’t gone to screenplay, he’s working on the story.'

 

Ford last played the daredevil archaeologist in 2008's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

 

Spielberg told Empire he was 'very happy' with it, but sympathised with people who didn't like the 'MacGuffin.'

 

'I never liked the MacGuffin,' he said.

 

'George (Lucas) and I had big arguments about the MacGuffin. I didn't want these things to be either aliens or inter-dimensional beings.'

 

However, the ET director did own up to one thing.

 

'What people really jumped at was Indy climbing into a refrigerator and getting blown into the sky by an atom-bomb blast,' he said.

 

'Blame me. Don't blame George. That was my silly idea.'

 

Ford shows no sign of retiring any time soon. He joined Daniel Craig and Olivia Wilde in this year's sci-fi-meets-Western thriller Cowboys and Aliens.

 

He also married long-term girlfriend Ally McBeal actress Calista Flockhart, 47, in New Mexico last year.

 

The pair met at the Golden Globes in 2002.
