Exclusive: James Mangold on how he approached the challenge of Harrison Ford's final archeological adventure in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny director James Mangold breaks down his approach to Indiana Jones' final adventure and the challenges the hero will face. Mangold is the first director to tackle an Indian Jones movie other than Steven Spielberg, and on top of that, it is Harrison Ford's final time playing the adventurer.
James Mangold: What you always have to do in any movie, even if it's a sequel, is establish a problem, and then solve it. I think it's the thing fans have the most struggle with sometimes because they're like, "Why does my hero have to have a problem?" And I'm like, because it's kind of the number one rule of drama.
Especially when you're living in a world where merchandising, commercialization, rock and roll, moon landings, real politic, and nuclear threats have really eradicated the clear lines of the world we knew in the 30s and 40s when Indy's glory period occurred. The world was really simple Nazis bad, allies good. The battles were so simple, but now he's in a world that is eminently more complex, and we can't pretend it isn't.
