Harrison Ford is going to have a hard time being believable in adventure films if Indiana Jones 5 is put off much longer, but it’s exactly what he — and us — are facing. Now we won’t get to see our favorite globe-trotting, death-defying archaeologist in action again until July 2022.
With Disney’s Marvel Phase 4 film roster pushed back due to CoVid-19′s Hollywood shutdown, all other Disney films — like the popular (but aging) Indiana Jones franchise — had to be pushed back, and back again. The as-yet unnamed Indy film had a prior release date of July 9th, 2021. Now it’s looking like “Junior” will be as old as his dad was (Sean Connery, in a fun turn) in Indiana Jones 3: The Last Crusade. Harrison Ford himself will be 80 in the fifth film.
(Not that being 80 is a bad thing in action entertainment these days. Patrick Stewart’s titular character in the successful new Star Trek: Picard is doing just fine at 79.)

Steven Spielberg was lined up to direct Indy 5, but Deadline reports he backed out. Current directorial darling James Mangold, of Logan and Ford v Ferrari fame, is rumored to take Dr. Jones on his next adventure.
Going with Mangold is just as good as Spielberg, anyway. Can’t go wrong either way, and as long as we still have Ford to ply a whip with his trademark crooked grin, then the summer of 2022 should be a good time at the movies.

What people are saying about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
