After the flop at the box office de The dial of fatemany thought that the saga of Indiana Jones had come definitively to the terminus. However, according to an indiscretion of The DisInsider, Lucasfilm would be working behind the scenes to a “secret” plan to relaunch the franchise. The idea, however, is not to act quickly. On the contrary, it would be a gradual operation, with the brand left to “praise” for a few years before a real return. An official announcement could already reach the next D23 Expo.
After all, despite the recent setback, Indiana Jones remains one of the strongest properties ever out of Lucasfilm, second only a Star Wars. With such an iconic imagination and a cinematographic inheritance over forty years long, it was difficult to believe that Disney was really willing to Close the curtain forever.
The figures are clear: The dial of fate had a budget of 329 million dollars and collected about 384 in the world, too few to consider it a success. But the problem, rather than in the film itself, could reside in a disillusioned audience from The kingdom of the crystal skull Or not very convinced by a protagonist eighty -one, however loved as Harrison Ford.
Ford himself confirmed that he had definitively closed with the characterand the hypotheses of succession (like a spin-off with Phoebe Waller-Bridge or a Recast with Chris Pratt) quickly dissolved. This time, Lucasfilm seems willing to force his hand. Nothing rushed, but one long -term strategywaiting for the right moment to revive the most famous archaeologist in the history of cinema.
The operation, if confirmed, will be delicate: Indiana Jones It is a name that weighs, loved for several generations and difficult to reinvent without distorting it. But it is also a brand still very strong, and Hollywood is not known to let her chickens sleep too much with golden eggs.
