Harrison Ford first appeared as the iconic character Indiana Jones in the 1981 film Raiders of the Lost Ark. He has returned four times to play Indiana Jones once again and is set for his final reprisal in the fifth film. When asked about playing the character for one last time, Harrison responded, “I just thought it would be nice to see one where Indiana Jones was at the end of his journey.”
For a while, Harrison was unsure if he would ever play the character again. He admitted that the script was the most important thing. If the script felt right, he would come back and he did. The film also stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Toby Jones, Antonio Banderas, and Mads Mikkelson.
