Movie fans were delighted after learning that a fifth Indiana Jones film is actually moving forward over at Lucasfilm. However, people were under the impression that if it were to happen, Harrison Ford will no longer be showing up in the franchise considering his age and how demanding the role would be for him. Turns out, Ford isn't ready to bid the franchise farewell just yet and he will, in fact, return as everyone's favorite badass archeologist.
Last April, the production company finally unveiled the main cast of the untitled Indiana Jones 5 project, and apparently, production is already underway for the highly anticipated flick which marks Indy's big-screen return after over a decade. In an exciting new update, the film is set to begin filming next week and Harrison just arrived in the United Kingdom as he gears up to make his triumphant comeback as the one and only Indiana Jones.
In a photo posted by watch company Bremont, Harrison can be seen enjoying some whiskey time in the company's manufacturing center. Safe to say the Star Wars actor is prepping himself up both physically and mentally for his grueling role. Check out the image here.
We still know very little about the plot of the upcoming film but according to the latest rumors, the film, which picks up where Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull left off could be set in the 1960s. If that in fact happens, then it's safe to assume this early in the game that the film could involve some time travel shenanigans. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Indiana Jones 5 is slated for release in July 2022.
