Before making his MCU debut, fans will first see Ford in Indiana Jones 5 when it releases on 30 June 2023.
Don’t judge a book by its cover, for behind all this makeup, is a geek just like you. To simply put it, superheroes, Star Wars, Harry Potter and all things gore and creepy makes this girly girl swoon.
