Harrison Ford confirms Indiana Jones 5 is his last Indy appearance
Harrison Ford has said that Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny will be the final time he plays the title character.
Ford has previously made similar promises, though before Disney started work on a spinoff TV series that will be set in the Indiana Jones universe.
In a new interview with Total Film (via GamesRadar+), Ford clarified that he "will not be involved" in the Indiana Jones streaming series even if it does "come to fruition".

"This is the final film in the series, and this is the last time I'll play the character. I anticipate that it will be the last time that he appears in a film," he revealed.
Ford famously returned to the role for The Dial of Destiny amid reports a few years ago that Disney was looking to recast with a younger Indy, possibly to be played by Marvel star Chris Pratt.
Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kenndy also pledged that her team would "never make Indiana Jones without Harrison Ford".
"Having just finished the fifth movie, I can tell you, there wasn't a day I wasn't on set where I wasn't like, 'Yes – this is Indiana Jones,'" she insisted.

In The Dial of Destiny, Indiana Jones teams up with his goddaughter Helena Shaw (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) to prove that NASA's space exploration program has been infiltrated by Nazi spies.
The cast includes Hannibal's Mads Mikkelsen as the villainous Jürgen Volle, plus Antonio Banderas as Indy's old friend Renaldo and John Rhys-Davies reprising his role as Sallah.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is scheduled for release on June 30.
