The anticipation for Indiana Jones 5 is at an all-time high, but somehow Disney and Lucasfilm will continue to tease us for at least another eight months. The next Harrison Ford-starring adventure trailer, which is purportedly due “soon,” is still pending, and narrative details are being kept tightly under wraps. We must thus rejoice that Empire Magazine finally gave us our first glimpse of Indy.

The film is prominently featured on its January cover, and they also included a first-look image of the lead actor. In the picture, Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones and is pictured staring off into the distance while on a boat. Since Indy is displaying a relatively calm, albeit slightly irate, expression, it doesn’t appear to be a scene from an action sequence. Of course, since this is precisely the kind of image we would anticipate from early reveals, the fedora, whip, and satchel are also present.

Even while the next Indiana Jones 5 trailer features material we’re all eager to see, it won’t be entirely fresh to everyone: Earlier this year, it was made known to D23 attendees, although, of course, filming was absolutely prohibited. We don’t know how much of the new film will prepare for its extension to television, either. Disney+ previously stated that a series is in development, but again, no further information was given.

There is a lot of space for speculation due to the dearth of storyline details, and one of the greatest speculations is that Indiana Jones 5 will be a passing-of-the-torch movie in which the legendary character ultimately retires and one of the supporting cast members takes over as the new star. After Ford said he will stop playing the character after the fifth movie, the rumor now looks even more plausible. Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag), who stars in the sequel and is believed to take part actively in action scenes, appears to be the greatest prospect to take over the franchise thus far. But before we can make more assumptions, we’ll have to wait for a trailer to be released.

James Mangold, a two-time Academy Award nominee who also directed Ford v. Ferrari and Logan, is the director of Indiana Jones 5. He co-wrote the script with Jez and John-Henry Butterworth (Edge of Tomorrow) (Spectre). The Indiana Jones franchise made its debut way back in 1981, and the trilogy that followed quickly rose to fame thanks to its action sequences and its setting in the late 1930s—a nod to the period’s movie serials and westerns. Ford has starred in each of the past four films, which have a combined box office of approximately $2 billion. Fans are eagerly awaiting the new installment as Part 5 of the story has long been in the works.
