Well this is good news if it were necessary for us cinema fans. One of film’s most iconic heroes, the whip-holding archaeologist Indiana Jones is NOT being killed off in his next adventure according to actor Harrison Ford’s reps.

According to The Huffington Post, speculation from a website suggested that the legendary character would be killed off in a rather pointless sequel of the popular Indiana Jones franchise. The source of the information also revealed that Jones wasn’t the first character that star Ford wanted killed off from of his major blockbuster hits!

“Harrison thinks it would be good for Indy to die and pass on his hat to his son in the next one. George (Lucas) especially is resisting the notion but Steven (Spielberg) is considering it. Funnily enough Harrison wanted the same for Han Solo in the final Star Wars but George put an end to it. This time he doesn’t have all the say though.”

Luckily though, the speculation was shot down by the representatives of Ford who made his long-awaited comeback as Jones in 2008 with Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull which earned mixed reviews which initially looked to have put Ford off making another outing as the rogue hero.

But he is apparently keen on another sequel which could see him pair up with Shia LaBeouf again though many die-hard fans will just want Indiana Jones to retire altogether. After all Mr LaBeouf seems to be the main suggestion for any 80s type film that’s being updated for the modern generation. Besides South Park would be ready to let rip if another sequel was made, so Mr Ford, please make the best decision possible and let Indy RIP!
