The world premiere of “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” at Cannes is one of the most anticipated events of the French Riviera festival. Harrison Ford has also received an honorary award from the Cannes Film Festival.
Inside the theater, Ford was greeted with thunderous applause. He beamed and looked around the theater before receiving the honorary Palme.
“I’m very touched. I’m very moved by this,” a clearly emotional Ford said. “They say when you’re about to die, you, you see your life flash before your eyes. I just saw my life before my eyes. “A great part of my life, not all of my life,” Ford continued, thanking Flockhart as well as “Dial of Destiny” director James Mangold and co-star Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
It’s not the first “Indiana Jones” film to premiere in Cannes. The fourth installment, “Indiana and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” launched at the 2008 edition of the festival. Critics and fans alike dismissed “Crystal Skull” as a misjudged sequel, though it still made $790 million worldwide. This time, “Dial of Destiny” is hoping to make a similar if not larger global impact without its famous filmmakers. The new film, which the Walt Disney Co. will release June 30 in the U.S., is the first “Indiana” film not directed by Steven Spielberg or with a story credit to George Lucas. Instead, Mangold takes the reins for a film co-starring Waller-Bridge, Antonio Banderas and Mads Mikkelsen.
