‘Indiana Jones 5’ Gets Lukewarm Five-Minute Cannes Ovation as Harrison Ford Says an Emotional Goodbye

Harrison Ford is in the midst of one of his biggest comebacks as he steps back into the role of Indiana Jones for the fifth and final time in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, set to release on June 30. The renewed attention on the 80-year-old in the midst of this career milestone has sparked new questions about his legacy – and his earnings.

Nobody’s perfect. Harrison Ford confessed that he thinks he could have done a better job in raising his five children over the years.

Indiana Jones catches flak from his wife.Harrison Ford — who will reprise his role as the iconic archaeologist in “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” opening June 30 — is still getting grief from wife Calista Flockhart about his profanity-laced interview with the Hollywood Reporter from earlier this year.In fact, it made the 80-year-old screen legend playfully ask a reporter to leave “f—kin’ A” out of a story after he said it during an interview.“My wife is still giving me me s–t about that Hollywood Reporter thing, an I’m trying not to say that too much,” Ford told the Esquire writer in a new cover story. “Me and the writer were sitting on folding chairs in a horse stall. It didn’t feel like a formal enough atmosphere to have to clean up my language.

The force is with this family. Not only is Harrison Ford one of Hollywood’s most famous faces, but he’s also a proud father and grandfather.

John Bleasdale Guest Contributor At the Cannes Film Festival, Italy’s 102 Distribution is selling thriller “Light Falls,” directed by Phedon Papamichael, the cinematographer on James Mangold’s “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.” Papamichael, who was Oscar nominated for handling the cinematography on Alexander Payne’s “Nebraska” and Aaron Sorkin’s “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” talks to Variety about shooting “Light Falls.” The film tells the story of Clara, played by Elene Makharashvili, and Ella, played by Nini Nebieridze, two young lovers whose Greek island holiday spirals out of control when a tragic incident leads to an encounter with a trio of illegal Albanian immigrants. The thriller establishes the relationship of the young women before moving in a darker and more violent direction.

Harrison Ford displayed his trademark dry sense of humor during what could have been an awkward moment at the Cannes Film Festival this weekend. During a press conference for his new film, "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," a reporter commented that Ford was "still very hot," adding "we were stunned to see you take your shirt off in the second scene, it’s just… and you’ve still got it. How do you keep fit? And can you ride a horse?" Ford was exaggeratedly confused, asking about the horse-riding question first, saying he can "if they let me." As for the body comment, Ford said, "Look, I have been blessed with this body." "Thanks for noticing," he added, causing the cast, crew, and audience to laugh and applaud.

Harrison Ford is defending the de-aging process he underwent for a flashback sequence in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. The fifth installment of the James Mangold-directed film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival where the star got a five-minute standing ovation.

That Harrison Ford sure has some stamina for someone in their 81st year.

Harrison Ford had a hard time fighting back tears at the Cannes Film Festival in the South of France Thursday night.

Harrison Ford showed off the honorary award he received at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival while attending a photocall for his new movie Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny on Friday (May 19) in Cannes, France.

Harrison Ford looked emotional as he received a five-minute standing ovation at this year’s Cannes Film Festival on Thursday.

What a night it was for Harrison Ford yesterday, receiving an honorary Palme d’Or and a special tribute to his career before the world premiere of “Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny.” Did James Mangold‘s take on the legendary franchise live up to the proceedings? Well, the reviews from the premiere (including The Playlist’s) are pretty mixed. But many note Ford’s performance as a major highlight, so at least the actor gives his most popular movie character a proper send-off.

Cannes took audiences back to their childhoods with the first screening of “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.” The film’s splashy premiere saw stars Harrison Ford, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Mads Mikkelsen walk the red carpet, alongside Walt Disney CEO Bob Iger and director James Mangold. The first reactions were slow to drop but were filled with enthusiasm.

Harrison Ford said he actually didn’t need to prepare for his latest role in the last Indiana Jones movie.

James Stewart once remarked that if you’re any good as a movie actor then audiences will follow you because what you’re doing is giving them “little moments of time that they’ll never forget.”

Harrison Ford was moved to the verge of tears while receiving a lifetime achievement award at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.The 80-year-old actor was attending the prestigious ceremony in celebration of his latest film, Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny – the fifth and final instalment of the adventure franchise.It was here that he was awarded the honorary Palme d’Or award for lifetime achievement, and greeted with thunderous applause as he arrived. Taking place last night (May 18), the acting veteran was also shown a compilation of some of the biggest performances from across his career, and seen getting visibly emotional by the footage.“They say when you’re about to die, you see your life flash before your eyes,” Ford said.

Asked about the WGA strike at the Cannes Film Festival press conference Friday for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, director James Mangold said, “No movie happens without a great script, and no great script happens without writers.”

Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny has received mixed reviews from critics, with some hailing it as delivering a “sweet blast of pure nostalgia”, while others have declared it to be a “complete waste of time”.The latest offering marks the fifth and final instalment of the Indiana Jones franchise, and sees acting legend Harrison Ford return to the role of the daring adventurer at the age of 80.With the first part of the movie being set in 1944, Dial Of Destiny kicks off with the whip-cracking archaeologist looking to retrieve one half of the Antikythera – an ancient dial built by Archimedes – from a Nazi scientist (played by Mads Mikkelsen). The remainder of the film ventures forward to 1969, where Jones partners up with his goddaughter Helena (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) to locate and retrieve the other half, and potentially alter the course of history.Over four decades since the original Raiders Of The Lost Ark film hit the silver screen, the latest instalment is the first of the sequels not to be directed by Steven Spielberg – with James Mangold now taking the reins.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” stars Harrison Ford in his final performance as the swashbuckling fedora-wearing adventurer, a legendary role he’s played in five films across 40 years. But he says he is officially ready to retire the character. “Is it not evident?” the 80-year-old actor joked at the Cannes Film Festival on Friday’s press conference for the action-adventure. “I need to sit down and rest a little bit.” In returning to the character for one last time, Ford expressed a desire to see “a completion of the five films.” He added, “I wanted to see the weight of life on him. I wanted to see him require reinvention. I wanted him to have a relationship that wasn’t a flirty movie relationship.

first reactions on social media were more positive. Per usual for Cannes premieres it did receive ovations, but they were reserved for Harrison Ford himself rather than the James Mangold-directed film.
