There are a host of actors tacked onto Indiana Jones 5 in undisclosed roles, but the film's best ending should copy No Time To Die's formula. The fifth installment of the Indiana Jones film series and a standalone sequel to 2008's Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Indiana Jones 5 marks the first franchise entry not to be helmed by Steven Spielberg or George Lucas, with Spielberg instead handing the reigns over to Logan's James Mangold. Naturally, Harrison Ford returns as the titular Indiana Jones, while Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Mads Mikkelsen, Thomas Kretschmann, Boyd Holbrook, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Toby Jones, Antonio Banderas, and Olivier Richters have all been cast in undisclosed roles.

Harrison Ford has stated this will be his final outing as Jones, with Indiana Jones 5 taking 15 years to materialize and Ford turning 80 in 2022. As a result, Indiana Jones 5 will look to pay homage to Ford's 42-year stint as the rough and tumble archaeologist, drawing parallels to another recent end of an era in Daniel Craig's James Bond movies.

Indiana Jones 5 should look to tread a similar path and pay homage to Harrison Ford's iconic Indiana Jones portrayal, with Mangold certainly not lacking fanservice-style narrative
