: If the Indiana Jones movies had been made in a different era, who do you think could have played him? Below I've listed actors from the 1920's to the 1970's who might have made a credible Indy. None of them are as good a choice as Harrison Ford but here they are.
: 1920's...Douglas Fairbanks
: 1930's...Tyrone Power
: 1940's...Humphrey Bogart
: 1950's...Robert Mitchum
: 1960's...Sean Connery
: 1970's...Clint Eastwood
: What do you think???
: Who would you choose???
I don't think Sean would be that great a choice. Indy wasn't Scottish, and Connery was already branded 007. Aside from that, the list looks credible.
