LOS ANGELES — Harrison Ford’s big screen return as adventurer Indiana Jones has been pushed back until 2021, Walt Disney Co. announced on Tuesday, two years after the fifth movie in the action franchise was first scheduled to be released. The film was originally scheduled for release in 2019 but that date was later pushed back to 2020. The new delay follows reports last week in Hollywood industry publicatio­ns that the script had not been finished and that a new writer was being brought in to polish it. Disney did not immediatel­y return a request for comment on Tuesday on the delay. The film will reunite Ford with director Stephen Spielberg in the franchise created by filmmaker George Lucas, that has grossed nearly $2 billion at the world box office with four films and amassed a global fan base. Disney said in 2016 that it was going ahead with a fifth installmen­t. The delay means Ford will be 79 when he appears as the Fedora-wearing archeologi­st in theaters. His age has been a running theme in the films since an often-quoted exchange in the first movie, in 1981. Karen Allen, playing Jones’s love interest Marion, says “You’re not the man I knew 10 years ago” and Ford responds with a line that has since become famous: “It’s not the years, honey, it’s the mileage.” Spielberg also has a slate of other projects he is currently working on, including a remake of musical and religion drama The as yet untitled fifth film will come 13 years after in which Ford’s Jones reunited with his former love Marion, again played by Allen, and discovered he had a grown son, Mutt Williams (Shia LaBeouf). The film received mixed reviews. Ford’s most recent movie appearance­s were in last year’s

and when he reprised his role as swash-buckling adventurer Han Solo. The 2015 film went on to take more than $2 billion at the global box office and become the third biggest release of all time. —

2nd suspect arrested over rapper XXXTentaci­on’s killing

MIAMI — A second suspect has been arrested over the death of Florida rapper XXXTentaci­on, whose fame was quickly rising when he was gunned down last month, authoritie­s said Wednesday. Michael Boatwright, 22, had already been taken into custody on July 5 on unrelated drug charges. He was served Tuesday with a new arrest warrant for first-degree murder, the Broward County Sheriff’s office said. He is the second person arrested over the June 18 killing, with 22-year-old Dedrick Williams detained two days after XXXTentaci­on’s death. The sheriff’s department said it was still searching for another suspect, Robert Allen, who is also 22. XXXTentaci­on, whose real name was Jahseh Onfroy, was shot outside a motorcycle store in Deerfield Beach north of Miami in what investigat­ors have been treating as a robbery attempt. The 20-year-old rapper’s star had quickly risen with his intensely personal, often suicidal verse and muffled musical delivery. His song “Sad!” soared to number one on the US chart after his death. —
