“Dial of Destiny' is the first Indiana Jones film without Spielberg behind the camera.
Director James Mangold poses for photographers upon arrival for the 'Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny' party at the 76th international film festival, Cannes, southern France, Thursday, May 18, 2023. – When the lights came up after a screening on the Walt Disney lot of “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," Steven Spielberg was incredulous.“Dial of Destiny,” whichis the first Indiana Jones film without Spielberg behind the camera.
While no one is saying “Dial of Destiny” matches “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” the consensus in Cannes was that it betters “Crystal Skull” by a wide margin. Mangold certainly has Ford's endorsement.Before “Dial of Destiny" opens in theaters June 30, Mangold spoke about the challenges of capturing “Indiana Jones” tradition and carrying it forward. After a 1940s-set opening with a de-aged Ford, “Dial of Destiny” moves to the ’60s and finds an aged Jones weary and on the cusp of retirement.
Mangold: I don’t think directing an Indiana Jones film is a job. It is a lifetime commitment. There's too many luminaries and too much involved. When they came to me they were very laser focused on me stepping in. The idea for me was that I wanted to write a script that I could get behind. I wanted to really retool the existing script pretty aggressively, almost entirely. But when they first came to me? It was a complete shock. I was numb. But I'm also not new at this.
