"I always knew someday you'd come walking back through my door. I never doubted that. Something made it inevitable." It's a famous Indy quote, and it may just apply to Steven Spielberg, who is reportedly hoping to direct the rebirth of "Indiana Jones."

"Word from Spielberg's camp is that it's too early to determine what will happen because there is no script yet and they are just getting going," according to Deadline Hollywood.

The 68-year-old three-time Oscar winner was responsible for the franchise's highly successful 1980s trilogy: "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (1981), "The Temple of Doom" (1984) and "The Last Crusade" (1989). He also directed Indy's 2008 return in "The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."

The director has apparently already settled on a replacement for Harrison Ford: He wants 35-year-old "Parks and Recreation" star Chris Pratt to interpret Dr. Henry "Indiana" Jones, Jr.

An unnamed source told HollywoodLife.com, however, that Ford might want one more chance to play Indy himself. The legendary actor, now 72, starred in all previous installments.

"Harrison would still like to be Indiana Jones and work with (Spielberg) and (George Lucas) one more time," the source said. "He understands that change happens and has nothing against Chris at all."

And while no script has been written and no contracts have been signed, a new Indiana Jones is confirmed to be coming.

Disney, which obtained some of the rights to the character when it bought Lucas' Lucasfilm in 2012, has apparently reached a deal with Paramount that gives it complete control of the franchise. The media corporation has enjoyed "great success in building large movie universes."

The plan has worked well with Marvel and Star Wars, and "no doubt they studio sees the same kind of potential in a new Indiana Jones series," the Verge concluded.
