There have been rumors floating around online for months about the matter Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny adducing him Phoebe Waller Bridge will take over the Indiana Jones franchise from Harrison Ford after the movie. Some of these rumors involve time travel and Indiana Jones sacrificing himself in the past to save the future. Those rumors started spreading more after the trailer was released.
The director of the film James Mangold he’s fed up with the rumors and misinformation and recently lashed out at the “trolling holes” that are spreading them for clicks. He said:
“One more time. No one is ‘taking over’ or replacing Indy or wearing his hat, or being ‘erased’ through any gimmick. And they never have been, not in any cut or script, but trolls will troll, this is how they get their clicks.
He went on to say:
“And please don’t wear me out [by] emphasizing how occasionally a troll is “right”. Even a blind squirrel occasionally finds a nut. All you have to do is look at set photos and interviews and get enough information to make wild guesses about a film’s plot.
Mangold didn’t stop there and continued:
“The difference between trolls and everyone else is them [are] trying to do [money] from your feelings about other movies and culture war politics. They push controversial assumptions as coming from “sources” to increase clicks. Let it go.”
The creative team has said from the beginning that no one will replace Indiana Jones. But it didn’t help matters when it was announced that Disney and Lucasfilm were looking to develop an Indiana Jones series and possible spin-off films for Disney+. If they go ahead with something like this, it should include Ke Huy Quan’s Short Round!
The story is set in 1969 and Indiana Jones “lives against the backdrop of the space race, but the American effort to beat the Russians to the moon brings with it some uncomfortable truths for Indy.” Phoebe Waller Bridge (Lots of fleas) takes on the role of the goddaughter of Harrison Ford’s iconic adventurer. It’s explained:
“The simple fact is that the moon landing program was run by a group of ex-Nazis. How “ex” they are is the question. And it makes Indy turn up his nose…” Casting Indiana – a man always in search of the secrets of the Earth rather than the stars – in the age of the astronaut finds him even more a man out of time. “It’s not just that the model of what a hero is has completely changed. It’s not just that they’re looking for something where there’s nothing up there – it’s like Reno without the gambling, or whatever line he has. But the people behind it are, you know, his sworn enemies.
The film comes from the producer Steven Spielberg and is also the protagonist Mads Mikkelsen (one more round), Boyd Holbrook (Logano), Shaunette Renee Wilson (The resident), And Thomas Kretschmann (The Avengers: Age of Ultron).
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny opened in theaters June 30, 2023 by Disney.
Another time. No one is “taking over” or replacing Indy or putting on his hat or being “erased” through any gimmick – and they never have been, not in any cut or script – but trolls will troll – that’s how they get their clicks . 1/

The difference between trolling and everyone else is that they are trying to make $ from your feelings about other movies and culture war politics. They push controversial assumptions as coming from “sources” to increase clicks. Let it go. END
