News that Disney was planning on reviving the "Indiana Jones" series leaked back in 2016, and the fact that the studio has been able to keep the plot under wraps for so long is impressive. While fans may not know what kind of adventure they can expect Indiana Jones to tackle next, they at least have an idea of who he may team up with – or face off against.
Before the announcement that Antonio Banderas would be joining the cast, fans learned that Mads Mikkelson would appear in the film and set photos have leaked of Pheobe Waller-Bridge filming scenes in Glasgow. An actor from the Marvel films, Thomas Kretschmann, who played Baron Wolfgang von Strucker in "Avengers: Age of Ultron" and "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," has also been confirmed to appear in the film. Rounding out the cast is Boyd Holbrook, who played a villain in "Logan," which James Mangold also directed, and Shaunette Renée Wilson, who was featured on the Showtime production "Billions."
While the next "Indiana Jones" film has faced significant delays, shots from the set and the filled-out cast list are excellent signs that the project is moving forward. Hopefully, everything comes together smoothly, and fans can enjoy the movie on its projected release date: July 29, 2022.
