'Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny' director James Mangold explained the importance of the film's de-aged flashback sequences.
Though it has been over a decade since the last Indiana Jones installment graced the big screen, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny will not—by any means—stray away from the film's usual formula, with a de-aged Harrison Ford featured in flashback sequences.
The trailer for the upcoming fifth film in the Indiana Jones saga has the actor donning his distinct hat and whip ensemble once again. And, as fans are already aware, the film's opening sequence takes place during the installment's earlier days. But Mangold, however, wants the audience to know what the character has been through in his 70-year existence. He told THR:
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY "It reminds the audience of the contrast between a hero in his physical prime and a hero at 70. We're not relying solely on the audience's memory of the previous films. It reminds everyone what he's done, what he's survived, what he's accomplished.
Now in his 80s, Ford has long been a crucial part of the adventure franchise, having acted in all four films as the titular character from 1981 up to 2008. With the fifth installment on the way, Dial of Destiny will take place in 1969, with Indy living in the midst of the Space Race along with his goddaughter joining him in his latest adventure, as well as former Nazi Jürgen Voller , who has been hired by the U.S. government to help them defeat the Soviet Union.
