Harrison Ford was initially reluctant to do another Indiana Jones movie. “I didn't feel it was necessary to do another one.”
Indiana Jones 5 star Harrison Ford shared that he didn't think it was necessary to make another sequel in the franchise. Ford has played the intrepid archeologist and explorer for decades since debuting the character in 1981's Raiders of the Lost Ark, completing the 1980s trilogy inspired by classic film serials in 1984's Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and 1989's Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Empire recently sat down with Ford for their cover story on Indiana Jones 5. He revealed that he was curious about exploring where the character might be at this point in his life, but he was only interested if he was presented with a script that intrigued him. That clearly was the case with this new project, but he still admitted that "I didn't feel it was necessary to do another one.
Regardless of one's own response to that film in particular, the franchise certainly didn't follow through on the promise made by that sequel, which ended with Indiana Jones and his longtime love interest Marion getting married while it was implied that LaBeouf's character Mutt would continue his father's swashbuckling adventures.
Harrison Ford Has Returned To His Most Iconic Roles Regardless of the star's thoughts on the necessity of Indiana Jones 5, it is also true that Ford has made a habit of returning to give his most iconic roles a victory lap. His star-making performance as Han Solo in the original Star Wars trilogy was resurrected in 2015 with Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens and repeated in 2019's Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.
