It seems Indiana Jones It could actually be directed to the restart treatment. According to a recent report of diska, Disney and Lucasfilm are taking into consideration a complete relaunch of the iconic adventure franchise. While nothing was officially announced, the report said:
“Lucasfilm is letting the franchising rest for a while before making a complete restart of the franchise. I would expect the study to announce something next year at the D23 Expo because even if the last film has been back at the box office, Indiana Jones is still an iconic and Disney/Lucasfilm IP did not want to waste.”
It is not difficult to understand why Disney would like to re -evaluate things. After acquiring Lucasfilm in 2012, Star Wars The content exploded, but Indy remained mostly dormant. Almost a decade passed before Indiana Jones and the dial of fate He finally hit the cinemas in 2023, and after all that anticipation … the film fell.
Despite the fairly positive reviews, Dial of fate It only collected $ 384 million globally compared to a huge production budget according to the $ 295-387 million range. That’s not what you want from an IP milestone.
James Mangold He entered to direct Dial of fate After Steven Spielbergwho directed the first four films, chose to bow. The film marked Harrison FordFinal exit as archaeologist who wears Fedora. While the Legacy actor was kind in his release, saying to the press “shit” happens “in response to the performance at the box office of the film, Mangold admitted that” he hurt “to see the film undervertent.
However, Indy is not leaving. As the relationship notes, the character is simply too precious to leave in a wooden case marked and hidden in a warehouse. The recent version of Indiana Jones and The Great CircleA video game acclaimed by critics shows that there is still life in the brand. And if Disney wants to continue, a restart makes more sense.
The big question is: how will they do it? The producers of the franchise have already said that they will not shy away Indiana Jones, but Disney could always ignore it and refuse. Or they introduce a completely new character set in the same universe.
Personally, I would like to see a new film or a series of adventures that follow Ke huy quanIt is short as an adult. The series could fill us with what happened to him after the events of Indiana Jones and the Temple of DoomAnd how his relationship with Indiana modeled his life. The series could show us what became short round and how it followed the footsteps of the Indiana and became an archaeologist.
In 2008, The Lost Journal of Indiana Jones It has been published, and says that the short round actually became an archaeologist like his mentor, and he also went on the road to trace the peacock eye, which was the diamond that Indy lost at the beginning The Temple of Doom.
No official announcement has yet been made, but with D23 coming soon, not being surprised if Disney will finally open that sarcophagus and reveals what is next for the franchise.
