Gina Rodriguez

She’s got the comedic timing to nail Indy’s one-liners, the physical-comedy chops to do the “Indiana’s afraid of snakes” scenes justice

Zhang Ziyi

Zhang is a dynamic actress and a bona fide action star, letting Zhang helm the Indiana Jones franchise would inspire a long-overdue stateside breakout.

Carrie Coon

A turn as Ms. Indiana Jones  would certainly be a way to level up in the public eye and get the mainstream recognition.

Tessa Thompson

She can certainly pull off the constant simmering, inconvenienced-by-fear Indiana Jones look, and pair that whip and leather perfectly.

Saoirse Ronan

Saoirse is ridiculously charming and disarmingly cool and has a bit of expirience in fighting to as seen in her 2011 movie, Hana.
