"Actress Megan Fox, famous for her roles in the Transformers and TMNT movies, would like to play the character Indiana Jones someday. She told GameSpot in an interview about her new video game gig that the famous archaeologist-adventurer would be her second choice, behind Tomb Raider's Lara Croft.

"I've always wanted to do Tomb Raider, but it's been done--and very well," Fox said. "So I guess I'd go with Indiana Jones, since I always loved how fun and free-spirited Indiana is.

"He's an adventurous rogue archaeologist who barely escapes death chasing down treasures among the earth's most mysterious sites. What's not to love?"

In all the Indiana Jones movies, the male character has been played by Harrison Ford. Last year, after the buzz around the all-female Ghostbusters reboot, Pitch Perfect's Anna Kendrick portrayed a female Indiana Jones--"Indianna"--for an an NBC sketch. The response was positive, even if it was just a joke.

With Ford signed up to play Indiana Jones yet again in 2019's fifth Indiana Jones movie, it would appear that Fox won't have a chance to take on the role anytime soon. It also remains to be seen if Disney would be up for changing the character's gender.

As for the next actress to play Lara Croft, that will be Alicia Vikander, who won an Oscar for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for her part in The Danish Girl."

Hmm, maybe after Indy 5? :D :tlove:

she should stick to indiana jones cosplay...

This reminds me of when people thought Jennifer Lawrence would make a great Han Solo. :roll:

But we all pretended that she'd won it for Best Actress in Ex Machina. ;)

OH HECK NO! :x

It's bad enough she's playing April, keep her away from my Indy!

I don't have a problem with Megan Fox but changing the sex of a character is just dumb.

We already have a female Indiana Jones in Tomb Raider but she isn't brittish either and wasn't Lara Croft's new actress already announced? Sadly enough it'll probably be based on the crappy reboot.

After Harrison Ford she will be the indie for feminists.

Safe to assume the trailer will be more hated than that of the new Ghostbusters movie.

I'd rather be killed by any of the numerous traps the character was subjected to than even humor the possibility of this becoming a thing.

How about no

Will it make fanboys cry?
I'm in.

Indiana Jones as a woman? Sure, but we already have Tomb Raider. But I'd be interested to see a Pulp hero explorer who is a woman.

Megan Fox, though? No thank you.

I never want to see Indy rebooted. Does anyone really want to see someone wearing the fedora besides Ford?

You might be a little late with that concern....

I forgot that even existed. :lol:

Indy is a character that is a homage to the old Serials, I don't think he is too sacred to be reimagined.

Plus, some pulp action movies would be nice.

The Tomb Raider game reboot was not crappy. :P

Megan Fox should focus her attention on stopping sleeping with Brian Austin Green (and getting pregnant with his kids). At the rate she's going, their divorce is never gonna happen.

She has kids? She's still with him? I clearly know nothing about her personal life, nor do I plan to. :lol:

Yeah, I'm guessing initial reactions were positive because Anna Kendrick can act.... Not sure the same can be said of the lovely Ms Fox.

Or write an original story about an original character...
