(Pocket-lint) - Indiana Jones 5 has been a little like the search for the holy grail, but now, finally, this latest instalment in the franchise is actually happening.
Harrison Ford cracks his whip once again and adventures are sure to follow.
Here's everything we know about Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny so far.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny release date
- 30 June 2023
The cinema release date for Indiana Jones has been confirmed by Lucasfilm to be 30 June 2023.
The project has been on the cards a long time, however, with the original plan for this fifth outing to be released in 2019. A lot has happened since then, but at least we now have a date for 2023.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny trailer
We've embedded the first trailer for the next Indiana Jones movie at the top of this piece - it appeared at the very start of December 2022. You can also find it on YouTube here.
So far, that's the only glimpse we've had of the movie, but it's surprisingly not that barebones a trailer. Instead, it features plenty of looks at Harrison Ford in his iconic role, along with what is clearly a fairly major part for Phoebe Waller-Bridge as Indy's goddaughter Helena.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny plot: How does this fit in?
Very little has been revealed about the plot for this fifth film. There have been some rumours that it will be set in the 60s, meaning that Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones is the correct age compared to the earlier films through the 1930s.
However, shots from the filming set reveal Nazi emblems, as does the first trailer, so it's possible that puts the timeline back into the 1930s-40s. This could be a flashback, however - at the moment it's difficult to know - although the IMDB listing also has a number of SS roles attributed, again suggesting a Nazi story link.
From that trailer, though, we're thinking we can expect a storyline that jumps around in time a fair bit.

How to catch up on Indiana Jones: Where can I stream the films?
