Harrison Ford wants to make another 'Indiana Jones' movie.

The actor wants to don his trademark fedora hat and crack the whip for a fifth time as the titular archaeologist, in a follow up to 2008's 'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'.

He told the E! news network: "I wouldn't mind another shot at Indiana Jones.

"I still think we have a chance of making a really good one."

The initial 'Indiana Jones' trilogy – made with director Stephen Spielberg between 1981 and 1989 – cemented Harrison's status as an action movie star and have become popular classic films, but 'Kingdom of the Crystal Skull' was less well received, and even criticised by Harrison's co-star, Shia LaBeouf.

He said: "I feel like I dropped the ball on the legacy that people loved.

Shia added he felt Harrison agreed with him, saying: "We had major discussions. He wasn't happy with it either.

"The movie could have been updated. There was a reason it wasn't universally accepted."

Harrison was less than impressed with the young star's comments, however, later branding him a "f***ing idiot."
