7. Robert Pattinson Rumored For Indiana Jones Reboot
Hey, speaking of old Twilight stars, grab your grains of salt, because we've got a doozy of a rumor for you! When last we heard about the possibility of an Indiana Jones reboot, Bradley Cooper's name was thrown into the mix. Now, it appears that Robert Pattinson could be in contention to don the fedora. Now, before you rabid Indy fans go around punching Disney executives, remember that this is just a rumor. In fact, it may even be complete hogwash. Regardless of who inherits the whip from Harrison Ford, it's clear that we're going to get more Indiana Jones films. It's just a matter of "
when", not "if." Sure, we all love Ford, but he's getting a bit old to play the role, and after the disaster that was Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, perhaps it's time to wipe the slate clean and start fresh. Now, with that said, Pattinson isn't a bad choice for the role. Yes, he was in the Twilight films, but has tried very hard since then at picking interesting projects that flex his acting chops. Movies like The Rover, Water For Elephants, and Cosmopolis show that he's got the acting ability; he just needs to find a way to step out of the shadow of Edward Cullen. Perhaps playing a young, up-and-coming Indiana Jones would be a great way for him to do that. Source:
