Monsters and Critics reports that Harrison Ford may indeed drop out of the project. The story goes that insurance companies have refused to cover the 64 year old actor if he insists on using a real whip for filming. In order for Mr. Ford to be covered, the whip must be all CGI.

 

This news has sat well with the aging Indiana, and he has stated that will not perform the role unless he is allowed to use his real whip.

 

Do you think he is too old to play this role?

To be fair, I don't think his age had anything to do with them not wanting to use a real whip; The reason was because of new film safety rules. Below is a link to the askmen article which started the rumor:

And no, I don't think he's too old. :)

Dude, Hollywood insurance rules be crazy, yo.
