The Walt Disney Company and Lucasfilm are struggling to find some way to make a new Indiana Jones feature work, and a trailer for the famed adventurer’s return to action is stunning fans with the return of Harrison Ford.

When Disney acquired Lucasfilm from founder George Lucas in 2012 for a cool $4.05 billion, most of the attention was on the Star Wars franchise. Since then, Disney has released five Star Wars feature films (none of which have made their price tag back yet), more than a dozen live-action and animated series, ambitious theme park attractions like Galaxy’s Edge and Galactic Starcruiser, and more branded merchandise than you can shake a gaffi stick at.

However, Indiana Jones has historically been nearly as big a part of Lucasfilm’s success as Star Wars. The Harrison Ford-led series includes five theatrical films, a live-action Young Indiana Jones television series featuring Sean Patrick Flanery, Corey Carrier, and George Hall as differently-aged versions of the title character, dozens of novels and comic books, and a number of highly acclaimed video games.

Unfortunately, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) flopped at the box office when it hit theaters. While its immediate predecessor, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008), had been released to an enormous $790 million haul (if not good reviews), it seems that audiences were not prepared to show up for Harrison Ford in his frequently-proclaimed final adventure with the character, especially considering that co-creators George Lucas and Steven Spielberg were largely hands-off. The James Mangold-directed movie, which had a production budget of $294 million, ended up costing Disney a catastrophic $134 million in losses.
