Steven Spielberg will reportedly take up the directing chair once again for the overhaul of the Indiana Jones franchise.

According to Deadline, the legendary director - who helmed the first four movies of the franchise - hopes to direct the upcoming remake.

The movie currently has no script and is still in its early days of development by Disney, but there’s talk of Guardians Of The Galaxy star Chris Pratt taking up Harrison Ford’s fedora and whip to play the lead role.

Anticipating fans have even posted a stellar mock-up of the star in full Indiana Jones kit via Tumblr.

If the rumours are true, it would be the second project that Pratt and Spielberg work on together, as the director is said to have hand-picked the actor to be the star of Jurassic World (which he produced), due for release on 12 June.

15 Of The Funniest Oscars Moments Ever

Ryan Seacrest must have really struggled to keep himself from exploding with rage as the ever pesky Sacha Baron Cohen ‘accidently’ poured the ashes of Kim Jong Il over his suit.

The 1974 Oscars saw Robert Opel, a photographer posing as a journalist, run starkers over the stage as Elizabeth Taylor was being announced. We reckon she loved it.

'Cos coming dressed as J-Lo and Gwyneth Paltrow to the Oscars wasn’t enough, 'South Park' creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone confessed to being high on acid during the 2000 Oscars ceremony.

Will Ferrell and Jack Black took it upon themselves to perform a song expressing their sadness at comedians being left out of the Oscars. It included threatening to elbow Leonardo DiCaprio “in the larynx” and break Ryan Gosling’s hip.

Jennifer Lawrence owned the 2013 Oscars. Eyes were on her during every part of the evening, no less here, as she middle fingered a reporter during her post awards press call. Sassy.

This cannot be comfortable.

Presenting the award for “Best Achievement In Visual Effects” was never going to be the most exhilarating task, so Ben Stiller attempted to spice it up by dressing in a morph suit, because comedy.

There’s still no explanation for this other than Bjork being “obsessed with swans” in 2001. The dress was described by one critic as “probably the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen”. Ouch.

It takes a lot to make U2 look fun, but Benedict just about manages it.

WE WISH WE HAD THIS MUCH SWAG.

Yeah, maybe not.

Not as good as Cumberbatch, but still. That level of attractiveness needs to be brought down a notch sometimes.

Travolta was given another shot at presenting an award last year, but we'll never forget his monumental mess up pronouncing 'Idina Menzel'.

Asked to dance by Emma Stone? We wouldn’t even have the guts to turn that down, but Jonah manages it and look like a grumpy old man in the process.

Between a crucifix and the Hollywood sign we decided to get hurt
Now, there's a few things we have to burn
Set our hearts ablaze, and every city was a gift
And every skyline was like a kiss upon the lips
And I was making you a wish
And every skyline

How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how beautiful

And meanwhile, a man was falling from space
And every day I wore your face
Like an atmosphere around me
The satellite beside me

And meanwhile a man was falling from space
As he hit the earth I left this place
Let the atmosphere surround me
The satellite beside me

What are we gonna do?
We've opened the door, now it's all coming through
Tell me you see it too
We've opened our eyes and it's changing the view
Oh, what are we gonna do?
We've opened the door, now it's all coming through

How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how beautiful

And every city was a gift
And every skyline was like a kiss upon the lips
And I was making you a wish
And every skyline

And meanwhile a man was falling from space
And every day I wore your face
Like an atmosphere around me
I'm happy you're beside me

What are we gonna do?
We've opened the door, now it's all coming through
Tell me you see it too
We've opened our eyes and it's changing the view
Oh, what are we gonna do?
We've opened the door, now it's all coming through

How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how...

So much time on the other side
Waiting for you to wake up
So much time on the other side
Waiting for you to wake up
Maybe I'll see you in another life
If this one wasn't enough
So much time on the other side

How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how...
