Lara Croft means a lot to me, as she does to many, and I can’t wait to go on this adventure. Bats ‘n all.” [amazon box="1368095194"]

idk what they put in this phrase, the most heartbreaking.

As Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny opens up around the world, the stars continue to discuss the making of the fourth Indiana Jones sequel and here Phoebe Waller-Bridge reveals that while the process of making the film was serious business, that preparedness also allowed for plenty of fun. “From the moment we met, it was s***head’s all round, we were taking the p*** out of each other all the time, and having a lot of fun. The most extraordinary thing about working with Harrison is that you’re definitely at work — in that his work ethic is so on point, and his discipline is so extraordinary — but because he’s that specific and the foundation of the work is really strong, the rest of it can be really fun. There were a lot of pranks… lots of pranks.” Phoebe also took the opportunity to wear one of the Harrison Ford prosthetic masks and hide in his trailer to scare him. “It scared the crap out of him, actually, even though that ‘actually’ is only represented by him blinking three times and saying, ‘Get the hell out of my trailer.'” As reported by Entertainment Weekly: “About 20 minutes later, Ford returned the favor, sneaking up on Waller-Bridge while wearing the mask of her face. He even took the time to tie his shirt into a little bow to match her character’s outfit. When asked about this later, Ford fittingly doesn’t divulge details, demurring, ‘I didn’t think of it as a “prank.” But yes, I mean, we spent a lot of time fooling around.'” [amazon box="0593597915"]

As the Writers Guild of America strike continues, Harrison Ford and award-winning writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge made very clear their support on the red carpet of the Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny premiere this past Monday, with Ford making clear that is the Screen Actors Guild vote to strike, he'll follow suit. SAG-AFTRA have been in contract talks with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers since 7th June, with the current contract expiring today, 30th June. In early June a SAG-AFTRA members vote saw 98% of its members prepared to authorise a strike. https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/1673965204974231552 What effect this will have on imminent and long-term film and TV productions is unknown, but coming so soon after the destabilising COVID-19 pandemic it seems almost certain that the entertainment industry is about to enter another period of uncertainty.
