Could Harrison Ford play a younger version of himself thanks to the de-aging technology used in IndianaJones?
One of the biggest moments and talking points of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is the fact that the film utilizes de-aging technology to throw us back in time to 1945 for an opening sequence of the film. The emerging technology de-ages the 80-year-old Harrison Ford for a large chunk of the beginning of Dial of Destiny. During the press conference for the film at Cannes Film Festival, this obviously inspired a question on whether or not we'd see a young Indiana Jones in future movies.
Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy was quick to shoot down the notion, simply answering, "No," to the question of more de-aged Ford. Indeed, while Ford expressed excitement for future seasons of Shrinking and 1923, he was not shy about emphasizing that this was his last movie as Indy. Ford also discussed how Lucasfilm used the technology as well as the archive of material the studio has from all his years working with them.

I know that that is my face — it's not Photoshop magic. That's what I looked like 35 years ago, because Lucasfilm has every frame of film that we've made together over all these years.
As AI technology and de-aging technology develops and improves, studios might feel the desire to tap into a certain market of nostalgia lovers who simply want to see the younger version of their favorite actor back. However, as Ford points out, without a strong story, the de-aging, no matter how convincing, falls flat.
