Even Harrison Ford couldn’t escape the clutches of Disney’s obsession with de-aging technology. The Indiana Jones 5 actor is now the third and final member of the Star Wars original trilogy trio to roll back the years with VFX software. Empire has revealed that a younger Indy will make an appearance in the upcoming film.
Thankfully, the uncanny tech won’t steal us from seeing Ford as the adventurer in his golden years. The de-aged software only comes into place in the movie’s opening sequence, where Indiana has to face off against a castle filled with Nazis all the way back in 1944, a few decades prior to him continuing to fight Nazis (but this time in NASA) in the fifth film’s setting of 1969.
