Yeah, I'm kind of indifferent.
On the one hand there's almost no way it'll be worse than Crystal Skull, but it's also unlikely that it will be all that great.
How old is he? And he's still playing an action/adventure hero?
I mean, not knocking him, Harrison Ford is awesome, but I just suspect it's going to strain credulity.

Please share the rumors.
Supposedly, the time travel angle brings old Indy and that English lady into the past, which leads them to crossing paths with young Indy. Eventually, I guess young Indy dies rescuing English Lady, which of course erases old Indy, and undoes everything he does from Raiders onwards.
Then the English lady takes up the ”Indiana” mantle, and I guess there’s some kind of montage after that, showing English lady superimposed on all the past legendary Indy scenes, effectively erasing Harrison Ford from the franchise. All of this is apparently to set up a future D+ series for the English lady.
From what I’ve heard there have been several endings filmed, and the others aren’t so blatantly disrespectful to Harrison Ford, but Kathleen Kennedy really wants the ending where English lady replaces Ford. And of course Mangold hates that ending and is fighting for another ending, which is what has caused all the delays.
All rumors though, of course. But the time travel stuff all looks pretty legit.

Goddamn, that would be truly horrendous.There's no way they'll do that. Right?
I typically don't like time travel as a plot device, but that would be taking it to an extreme level.
I’m not sure, tbh, you never know with Kathleen Kennedy. The time travel leaks have all been substantiated so far. However, Mangold has completely denied that replacing ford was ever considered, which gives me some hope that it isn’t true.
