Harrison Ford's latest film, 'Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,' brought in underwhelming numbers in its opening weekend, making $60 million domestically at the box office.
"I became the second choice, and I’m very grateful for Tom," Ford told Deadline in June. "Thank you, Tom, man. If you’re listening, thank you again."
He went on to play the character in four more films, "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom," "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" and most recently, "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny." When speaking with BBC Radio 1 recently, Ford opened up about how much the character means to him, getting emotional as he spoke.
Ford got emotional when speaking with BBC Radio 1 about how much the character of Indiana Jones has meant to him over the years. "As this last one concerns age and frailty and changing nature of life, it was especially compelling to me because I am of that age and I wanted it to feel real for the audience," he told the outlet. "I wanted them to see the complexity of that experience with someone they’ve spent 40 years with."
