10 actors that could be the next Indiana Jones
Jon Hamm (43): Hamm can be funny (SNL) and dramatic (Mad Men), so I think he could put it all together for Indy. He’s not who I think of when I think of an action/adventure type role, but he would be a good fit because of how naturally charming he is.
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (43): He’s best known as Jaime Lannister, but in that role, he’s shown an incredibly wide range as an actor. I almost left him off this list because he was my first choice to play Batman (before Ben Affleck was cast), but I can’t help but feel he’s ready for a huge breakout role. He could be great as Indy.
Aaron Eckhart (46): The perennial “almost A-list” actor could be great as Indy. Like Karl Urban, I have concern about whether or not he can carry his own film, especially after suffering through I, FRANKENSTEIN. But in the right role, Eckhart can shine and he’d be an intriguing option as Indiana Jones.
So I’m sure I’ve left out some good candidates, but I think any of these ten could carry the torch. Who did I leave out, or who would you like to see take over the Indiana Jones franchise? Let us know below.
