Not much is known about the new installment in the famed franchise, which will see Harrison Ford reprising his role as the titular archaeologist-turned-adventurer and Steven Spielberg returning to direct. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the delay is due to "script issues," with Solo scribe Jonathan Kasdan -- whose father, Lawrence Kasdan, penned the first Indiana Jones film, Raiders of the Lost Ark -- being brought in to write a new draft.

Back in May 2016, Ford told Jimmy Kimmel he was "excited" to reprise the role again, almost a decade after the franchise's fourth installment, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, promising, "I'll be ready."

"The opportunity to work with Steven again and the chance to revisit this character which has brought pleasure to so many people -- not to mention, me," he explained. "It's great fun to play this character. It's great fun to work with Steven. I'm looking forward to it."

No word yet on whether or not Ford's Crystal Skull co-star, Shia LaBeouf, will be joining him in the new film, but the 75-year-old actor recently signed off on another one of his young successors, praising Alden Ehrenreich's performance in the Han Solo prequel film, Solo: A Star Wars Story, and even surprising him during an ET interview!
