It's been a while since we had any solid updates on the fifth Indiana Jones movie, but Disney/Lucasfilm has just announced a major casting addition.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag, Solo: A Star Wars Story) is set to star alongside Harrison Ford, who will reprise the role of the legendary adventurer. No details on her character were provided, but the press release would seem to suggest that she will be playing the female lead.

It's also been confirmed that John Williams will return to score the film, "continuing a musical journey which began 40 years ago with Raiders of the Lost Ark."

“I'm thrilled to be starting a new adventure, collaborating with a dream team of all-time great filmmakers," said the film's director James Mangold. "Steven, Harrison, Kathy, Frank, and John are all artistic heroes of mine. When you add Phoebe, a dazzling actor, brilliant creative voice and the chemistry she will undoubtedly bring to our set, I can't help but feel as lucky as Indiana Jones himself.”

Kathleen Kennedy, Steven Spielberg, Frank Marshall and Simon Emanuel will serve as producers. The still untitled Indiana Jones 5 swings into theaters July 29, 2022.

@WakandaTech - Not sure if Indiana Jones will be the one moving.

@Urubrodi - You're right. He sure can't get around like he used to.

I don't think this will be a large role? It's not like she's going to be the next Indy girl right??

Also, I hope Williams is back on form this time, the Star Wars sequels soundtrack doesn't hold a candle to the OT and even the Prequel trilogy.

That's a great casting choice. Now if only the movie can give the cast some good material to work with.

@ModHaterSLADE - Hope so, Indy needs a proper sendoff, Crystal Skull wasn't it.

@Urubrodi - Agreed. That movie was a joke compared to the OG trilogy.

@Urubrodi - No, but The Last Crusade was, and that's where the series ended as far as I'm concerned.

@Feralwookiee - Until this one comes out so that we can judge it, I do agree that the ending of the Last Crusade is pretty perfect. My favourite of the trilogy.

@Urubrodi - Nothing's better than Raiders as a pure action/adventure flick imo, but Crusade is my 2nd favorite and a good wrap up to the trilogy with Indy literally riding off into the sunset.

@Urubrodi - He already had one...The LAST crusade. Crystal skull is like the SW ST just ignore it it because it's largely shit.

An antagonist role for Benicio Del Toro. It would be great to see him in an Indiana Jones movie.
