“I mean, truthfully, right now, if we were to do anything, it might be in series television down the road, but we’re not doing anything to replace Indiana Jones. This is it,” she iterated.

Kennedy continued, “There are five movies that Harrison Ford did. And Harrison is so specific and so unique to creating this role. We just, Steven [Spielberg] agrees, we just wouldn’t do that.”

Moreover, Ford defended the use of AI technology to create a de-aged version of his face. “I know that is my face, that it is not some PhotoShop magic. That’s what I looked like 35 years ago because Lucasfilm has every frame of film that we made together over all these years,” he stated.

‘The Dial of Destiny’ is slated to open in theatres on June 30.
