The fifth Indiana Jones film will begin filming this spring, star Harrison Ford has revealed. Ford, who has played the character of Jones since 1981, was announced to be returning to the role for the new film last week.
In a new interview with CBS News, Ford revealed that the new film, which Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy recently described as “not a reboot” but “a continuation,” will begin filming in two months.
Ford has played Indiana Jones since 1981 in all of the franchise's four films – Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Temple of Doom, The Last Crusade and The Crystal Skull.
Indiana Jones 5 was originally due to come out in July last year, before being pushed back to July 2020, and then given a final later release date of July 9, 2021.
