Steven Spielberg’s “Indiana Jones” franchise is generally well-beloved, and yes, it has its mystical, supernatural, and paranormal elements—see the end of “Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade” or even, hell, the end of “Raiders Of The Lost Ark.” Geez, there were all kinds of wild iterations that almost made it to the screen like “Indiana Jones and the Saucermen from Mars,” Frank Darabont’s “Indiana Jones and The City of The Gods,” but for whatever reason, the alien elements in “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull,” were a bridge too far for most audiences.

It’s not controversial to say that Harrison Ford has gotten older, especially when you consider his age when he starred in the first “Indiana Jones” film back in 1981.

It’s no Millennium Falcon! Harrison Ford revealed that Calista Flockhart refuses to fly in “vintage” planes with him after his near-fatal accident in 2015.

Phase 5 of the MCU finally gets underway next month with “Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania.” And while it remains unclear how much that movie sets up the rest of the MCU’s next chapter, Marvel fans anticipate Phase 5 will bring its fair share of changes. For example, take “Captain America: New World Order,” which sees Anthony Mackie‘s Sam Wilson officially take over the shield and helmet from Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers.
