Aline Brosh McKenna wrote the script, she is also the writer for the movie, “The Devil Wears Prada”. This film will be made through Paramount Pictures, the same studio where Ford last worked on “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”.

Will there be jokes making fun of Indiana Jones or Han Solo for laughs in this film? I hope not. Leave Harrison’s other characters out of this film.
Seems like everytime Harrison tries to do a comedy, it fails in the box office. This one can be a hit if done right and hope they do make it a funny one.
