Harrison Ford Doesn't Care That Indiana Jones 5 Flopped, and Joined Marvel For a 'Good Time'

Author : Peyton Feb 25,2025

Harrison Ford remains unfazed by the critical and commercial underperformance of "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," casually remarking, "s**t happens." He attributes his subsequent move to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to a simple desire for a "good time."

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal Magazine, the Star Wars icon explained his motivation for returning to the Indiana Jones franchise, stating that he felt there was "another story to tell." However, he expresses no regret over the film's negative critical reception and estimated $100 million loss.

Ford elaborated on his Indy sequel aspirations, saying, "When [Indy] had suffered the consequences of the life he had to live, I wanted one more chance to pick him up, dust him off, and see what happened. I’m still happy I made that movie."

This latest cinematic venture hasn't deterred him from joining another iconic franchise. Ford's MCU debut in "Captain America: Brave New World" sees him stepping into the shoes of the late William Hurt as Thaddeus Ross, a role significantly expanded to include the Red Hulk transformation.

Interestingly, Ford joined the MCU project before being fully aware of this character arc. He hadn't even seen a script for "Brave New World," his decision driven purely by the prospect of enjoyment.

"Why not? I saw enough Marvel films to see actors I admired having a good time," Ford explained. "I didn’t really know that at the end I would turn into the Red Hulk. Well, it’s like life. You only get so far in the kit until the last page of the instructions is missing."

"Captain America: Brave New World," slated for release on February 14th, promises to be one of the shorter MCU films to date. It marks Anthony Mackie's first solo outing as Captain America, replacing Chris Evans' Steve Rogers. The film is also expected to feature several deep-cut Marvel characters, including a long-awaited payoff from the second MCU film, "The Incredible Hulk," with the introduction of The Leader.
