It’s been 15 years since Harrison Ford donned the fedora as the whip-cracking archaeologist Indiana Jones, a hero made so iconic in large part by Ford’s rugged charisma and command of the character. Now he's back for one last adventure. In honor of the release of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Collider’s Perri Nemiroff got the chance to sit down with the Academy Award-nominee and his co-star Phoebe Waller-Bridge to discuss their experience adding a new installment to the beloved franchise.

The Dial of Destiny is co-written and directed by James Mangold, who worked alongside executive producers Steven Spielberg and George Lucas to ensure they captured the spirit of the series. According to Ford, the fifth installment offered a script and an ensemble cast they were “lucky to have.” The impressive roster includes Karen Allen and John Rhys-Davies reprising their roles as Marion Ravenwood and Sallah, as well as franchise newcomers Mads Mikkelsen as Indy nemesis Jürgen Voller and Toby Jones as Basil Shaw, an old friend and the father of Waller-Bridge’s scheming Helena Shaw, Jones’ goddaughter. The cast is swept away in a mission to secure a legendary artifact, a device that supposedly can locate fissures in time.

During their conversation, Ford highlighted the especially supportive atmosphere on set and why he deemed the experience a "pure joy," Waller-Bridge recalled surprising herself with her ability to pull off challenging stunt sequences, and Ford also shared what he appreciates most about being an actor in general. For this and more, check out Perri’s interview!
