Robert Pattinson 'Indiana Jones' Reboot & 'Star Wars' Han Solo Standalone Movie - Kristen Stewart's Heartthrob Ex-Boyfriend Addresses Casting Rumors
There are two huge casting rumors involving Twilight star Robert Pattinson that have the Internet buzzing with excitement, but are they true? Could the heartthrob really be up for a younger Indiana Jones role or a Han Solo standalone film from Disney? Let's see what the actor had to say about the two most recent rumors involving his name!
One big rumor floating around is that Disney wants Robert to play a younger Indiana Jones in a franchise reboot prequel. Harrison Ford was the original star of this film series, but the actor is 71 years old so looking for younger talent makes sense!

Another big casting rumor was that Pattinson would portray a young Han Solo in one of the standalone Star Wars movies coming out after Episode VII. Harrison Ford also played Han Solo, so this rumor might just be speculation based on the Indiana Jones rumor.
"Everyone has been talking about the possibility that Rob will be the new Indiana Jones, but that is not going to happen, " a source revealed to HollywoodLife.com. "What has been talked about is a standalone Han Solo film, younger Han Solo before everything that happened in Star Wars and the person who is on the high list to get the part is Robert Pattinson."
