Casting rumors have also surfaced soon after stating that Jurassic World star Chris Pratt might don the fedora and star in the lead role in the instalment. According to  MNR Daily, Pratt was rumored to play the younger version of the badass archaeologist, Indiana Jones.

However, as reported by Rope of Silicon, Pratt addressed the rumors and said that he has not received any offer yet,  "No one has ever even spoken to me about that, never. I've even seen Channing a couple times. As far as I know, that's complete bullshit," he said.

Meanwhile, reports have also surfaced that a teaser of the upcoming film will be released as Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters. According to Comicbookmovie.com, as cited by HNGN, an old Indiana Jones will reportedly be shown in the trailer.

Sitting in his study, with books and laptop nearby, Indy will be approached by his grandson (who is rumored to be played by Pratt). The younger Jones tells his grandfather to hurry in order for them to make it to Glastonbury. The grandson then feels bad rushing his grandfather, and tries to help him along. He later asks his Indy about the books around him, and then Indy replies saying " "Nothing, just a stupid dream I had."

No release date has been announced for Indiana Jones 5 but rumor mill suggests that the movie might be released in 2018.
