In an interview with WGN TV Harrison Ford came very close to confirming that he would have some sort of role in the new Star Wars movie that Disney is preparing.  Ford was promoting the Jackie Robinson biopic 42 in which he plays Branch Rickey, when he was asked if he would be returning as Han Solo.  While noting that he was officially signed yet, Ford certainly sounded like he was on board for a new Star Wars film saying, "I think it’s almost true.  I’m looking forward to it.  It’s not in the bag yet, but I think it’s going to happen."

Last month Mark Hamill admitted that he had been contacted and suggested that other members of the original cast had also been approached (see "Mark Hamill in New 'Star Wars' Movie?").  Like Ford Hamill sounded very interested in returning to the Star Wars fold.
