The Mouse House and Lucasfilm have specifically been bringing up the possibility of a streaming show set in the world of the globe trotting archaeologist in general meetings with writers of late, sources say. They are still looking for a writer to take on the project, thus no plot details are available.
Indiana Jones is one of the most iconic pop culture characters of all time. Ford has played him in four blockbuster films to date — “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” “Temple of Doom,” “The Last Crusade,” and “Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.” George Lucas and Philip Kaufman created the character, with Stephen Spielberg having directed the first four films in the franchise. The fifth film is directed by James Mangold. Collectively, the four films have grossed nearly $1.3 billion worldwide.
The idea that Disney would want a show built around Indiana Jones is not altogether surprising. The media conglomerate has been harvesting the best known IP from its catalog to build up its streaming platform for years now. In addition to the successful launch of its Marvel shows, Disney+ also currently has multiple live-action “Star Wars” series on its roster, including the hit series “The Mandalorian.
