I really wonder if the new Indy actor will also play young Han Solo and vice-versa. Obviously there’s precedent but in order to sell the very idea of re-casting these roles it might make sense to use two actors: One to carry the Indy franchise, the other to be a team player in Star Wars. And sure, one guy could do both. If they decided to go with a two guy approach, however, scheduling would get a lot easier which might be a factor with both franchises heating up.
