I want to complete the story.”

Director James Mangold, who previously served as an executive producer on Ford’s “Call of the Wild,” said, “There’s a lot of expectation on a movie like this and you’re only going to reach a fraction of it, because everyone has their own version of Indiana. Jones, and there’s no way you’re going to please everyone.”
“But you also have other doubts about a legendary crew like the production team, the acting, the greatest film score,” he continued. “I tried to understand the most honest way to make a film that I also felt. You know, I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark when I was 17 years old in a New York mall on opening day and it was one of the reasons I became a film director.”
