Goddamn it! Just when I thought my favorite childhood actor was finally going to get a role that he could actually create a new performance for, the friggin... ARGH!
Now, WHY? According to the article, which sources Harrison's long time agent Pat McQueeny, it's to do a 'yet to be determined' action film.
Now, in the Talk Back of Moriarty's piece there was a Talk Backer named ZoeGirly that wanted to know why Moriarty has been so tough on Harrison Ford.
It's because of things EXACTLY LIKE THIS!
Now, we don't know for sure what his next project is for sure. It could be SUM OF ALL FEARS or it could even be INDIANA JONES 4, afterall... Spielberg dropped out of HARRY POTTER and at least as far as anyone knows isn't 100% on either AI or MINORITY REPORT. But Whatever Harrison Ford ACTION film he chooses. THIS IS THE WRONG CHOICE.
Playing Jack Ryan.... again. Or even Indiana Jones, which I dearly love... Pales to me at the thought of having Harrison Ford actually performing again at the behest of a director that would push him and a part that would test him further than anything he's done. A chance to become an actor again instead of a fingerpointing conservative role-choosing star.
It's a move like this that just pisses me off to no end. Oh well... so much for hoping Harrison had seen the light.
