The Dial of Destiny red carpet will be released in cinemas on June 30 and comes 15 years after Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull first premiered at the festival.

Plot details for the action-packed blockbuster have been kept tightly under wraps, but it has been claimed that the Hollywood icon will be ‘de-aged’ in scenes.

He recently spoke to Empire Magazine about the flick, and what kept him coming back to Indiana Jones for more adventures.

‘It’s full of adventure, full of laughs, full of real emotion. And it’s complex and it’s sneaky,’ he said. ‘The shooting of it was tough and long and arduous. But I’m very happy with the film that we have.

‘I just thought it would be nice to see one where Indiana Jones was at the end of his journey. If a script came along that I felt gave me a way to extend the character.’

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny will be released in cinema on June 30.
