Harrison Ford won't be replaced as Indiana Jones.

Ford starred as the archaeologist in the money-spinning action-adventure franchise and Frank Marshall - the man behind the proposed 'Indiana Jones' reboot - has promised Harrison won't be recast.

He told TotalFilm: “There are a lot of rumours. We haven't even sat down to talk about Indy yet... at some point we'll sit down. But there's a bunch of people who could probably take the baton.

“[But we are] not doing the Bond thing where we're going to call somebody else Indiana Jones ... we have to figure this out.”

Meanwhile, Harrison is also set to reprise another of his most iconic on-screen characters, Han Solo, in 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'.

And his co-star in the new movie Daisy Ridley recently revealed how she offended the acting legend on the first day of filming.

She recalled: “I did say when I first met him, 'Oh my mum loves you,' and he said, 'Oh great'.”

However, the 23-year-old actress also admitted she loved working with such a “cool guy”.

She shared: “It is that thing, he is Harrison Ford and is such a cool guy and a really lovely person to work with.”
