After months of speculation about what happened to the rights for past and future "Indiana Jones" films, Disney have confirmed that they now own the rights to future instalments in the Harrison Ford leading franchise. Paramount will still own the rights for the first four films, but Disney will be the prime studio who will make and distribute any future "Indy" sequels.
This news could back up the rumoured news that was reporting that Disney had to promise Ford an "Indiana Jones V" to get him to star in "Star Wars - Episode VII". Ford is the only guy involved in the long running franchise who's sticking with faith on any new films that have still to get made. There was a rumour at some point that Disney, when they bought LucasFilm, only had rights to reboot the franchise rather than go forward with a fifth, sixth or seventh film.
Now that a fifth film is such a super possibility, old Harrison Ford better get back into shape and get his iconic hat and whip ready for a whole new story.
