Our biggest look yet at James Mangold’s Indy tale.
A legend will face his destiny, and it looks like an incredible adventure.
Lucasfilm’s Studio Showcase, held today at Star Wars Celebration Europe 2023, closed with an emotional, action-filled new trailer for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. It reveals more about the characters and overall story, including Indy’s pursuit of the titular MacGuffin. Watch it below.
The trailer opens with Harrison Ford’s iconic archaeologist asleep in his apartment — until the Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil” jolts him awake, a signal that we’re far removed from the era of the original Indiana Jones films. Indy is in late-‘60s New York and he’s also retiring, but not before his goddaughter, Helena (played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge), recruits him for one more adventure: to recover a “dial that could change the course of history.” We also see earlier Indy escapades, including an encounter with Mads Mikkelsen’s villainous Jürgen Voller, who is after the dial. There are car chases, horse-in-the-subway pursuits, and falls from planes. In other words, it looks like an Indy journey through and through.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, directed by James Mangold, arrives June 30 in theaters. Don’t forget your fedora.
