I'm still not sure a long-running franchise has acknowledged the aging of its cast any better than Star Trek II, and that was with four more TOS movies to go.
I'd be down for a more cerebral Indiana Jones that both works around the physical limitations of Ford and the fact that he by all accounts should be a professor emeritus in-universe by now, and the fact that they haven't made a bigger deal about casting a younger male lead like they did with Crystal Skull, gives me a little comfort that that might actually be the direction they're going, but you never know.
It'd be a little too obvious to guess that Mikkelsen is going to be the villain, but Indiana Jones flicks aren't exactly known for having gigantic casts (extras nonwithstanding), so it's tough to say at this point.

I'm up for it.
I'm thinking of taking my Dad along to the cinema with me to see it. He's only a couple years younger than Ford (I told him he can still be a Hollywood action star yet!), and hey, whether it's good or not, this will be last time to go catch a new Ford Indiana Jones film at the cinema.
Definite end of an era either which way.

A teaser has leaked. Disney are aggressively taking it down, so it's gotta be genuine.

Well, that was an underwhelming result to a tease...

Ford has a knack for playing iconic characters who rarely change their clothes.

So Mads Mikkleson is the second Indiana Jones villain that played a James Bond villain first. Julian Glover being the first. And also the second that previously played an MCU villain .. I think… let you figure that one out for yourselves

I think… let you figure that one out for yourselves I know this isn't quite the same thing, but it just made me think, "Man, Cate Blanchett as a Bond villain could be pretty cool."

Sorry, I made a mistake with the phrasing .. Blanchett was in Indiana Jones before appearing in the MCU, not previously as I phrased it.

Nah, I know that, I was just joking it'd be kind of rad if she also completed this hat trick Mads is pulling off.

"a mystery and a wonder.." "Might solve a mystery...in Indie's history..." The feeling when you realize that *technically* there's nothing stopping Indiana Jones from crossing over with Scrooge McDuck now. That being said, I have no clue how a live action, non-duck Scrooge would look or who would be best to play him if you were going to somehow do a crossover.

I mean if Howard the Duck can travel to our universe, what is preventing Indy from traveling to the duck universe? Now I just want to see Indiana Jones killing humanoid ducks.

Whoa, that's a lot of greenscreen stuff, I hope they keep more practical effects this time.
But I loved 'Raiders', disliked 'Temple of Doom', loved 'Last Crusade', and despised 'Crystal Skull', so I should love this one, going by history.
