The release date of the much anticipated fifth installment of adventure movie franchise, "Indiana Jones" is soon to be announced. Meanwhile, rumors have already been doing rounds in the internet regarding the cast of the film.

Harrison Ford, who played the iconic archeologist character "Indy" for more than three decades, sustained an injury while filming "Star Wars: Episode VII" where is playing Han Solo. After the incident, several names where linked to Ford's role in "Indiana Jones 5."

"Twilight" star Robert Pattinson and "Guardians of the Galaxy" stars Bradley Cooper, and now including Chris Pratt, are rumored to be the top choices to replace Ford for the titular role.

In an article by Fandango, it was mentioned that the franchise is purportedly featuring a complete reboot, with recast. The website also claimed that if the rumors were true, then someone like Pratt would make a great choice for the titular role.

Moreover, the 71-year old veteran actor is busy with the new "Stars Wars" film while Disney is reportedly looking for long-term options for the "Indiana Jones" franchise.

"Regarding Harrison Ford, two more Indiana Jones features are in the negotiation stages as per Ford's contract clause on Star Wars, which is the primary reason he didn't 'publicly' or 'privately' commit, or so I'm told," a source told MarketSaw earlier this year.

"Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones" were two franchises that Ford was made famous for. This seems to be enough reason for the veteran actor to have a hard time choosing which to prioritize. When asked if he would feature in another "Star Wars" sequel, he said "I'm just delighted to be involved. We haven't started filming yet but we have a great script and a wonderful cast."

"J.J. Abrams is a director at the top of his game and I'm looking forward to it. It'll be great fun," he told Metro.

Meanwhile, filming of "Star Wars: Episode VII" has resumed this week at London's Pinewood Studios after a two-month hiatus, according to a report by The Hollywood Reporter. This was after Ford's on-set injury and subsequent surgery.
