Of all the local premieres of “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” none has had quite so dramatic and apt a setting as the ancient open air Greek Theater in Taormina, Italy, where the fifth inst…
, Waller-Bridge talked of being initially overwhelmed by finding herself starring in one of the biggest summer releases. “I think it might take a little while to process. I was always a big fan and all of a sudden you’re meeting Harrison and Mads, and I’m like, ‘Oh shit,’ but honestly, within 15 seconds, it just felt like we were a gang. I enjoyed working with them and [director] Jim [Mangold] so much.”, Mikkelsen affirmed he had been a boyhood fan of the series.
On stage, he admitted to wishing to be Indiana Jones when he grew up but was happy to settle on playing the Nazi villain: “I would have played the cat in this film.”asked if he got tired of dying in most of his English-language films. “It’s always fun to die in a film,” Mikkelsen says. “It means that you’re important in some way, right? And I’ve not died in Danish, German and French. So if they offer me something in English I’m game, but I’m not like starving for it.
So if you could only have one, what would you choose: the hat, the jacket or the gun? Ford chooses the hat. The two co-stars begin to bicker with Mikkelsen choosing the hat as well and Waller-Bridge deciding on the whip. “Mads said hat because he’s already got a whip,” Waller-Bridge jokes. “With the whip, I can get things from further away. Your hat can’t do anything. You’re constantly losing your hat and having to get it. I could get your hat with my whip.
It’s easy to see the camaraderie between Mikkelsen and Waller-Bridge, which she had said was part of the collaboration from the get-go. “I’m going to miss it,” she remarks. As the final triumphant march plays into the Sicilian night air and the credits roll on the last instalment of Indiana Jones, there are many sitting in the ancient amphitheater who will feel the same at saying farewell to a favorite hero.
