Harrison Ford makes his fifth and final appearance as swashbuckling archeologist Indiana Jones in “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny”.
In a new interview with Esquire, the actor — who turns 81 in July — explains why his insistence on displaying his character’s age onscreen led him to clash with members of the movie’s stunt team. “I wanted an ambitious movie to be the last one,” Ford said. “And I don’t mean that we didn’t make ambitious movies before — they were ambitious in many different ways.
