However, fans of the movie were dealt a massive blow when Harrison revealed that he wouldn’t be returning after the fifth movie.

“This is the final film in the series,” he shockingly revealed. “And this is the last time I’ll play the character. I anticipate that it will be the last time that he appears in a film.”

Despite leaving the franchise, Harrison admitted that he’d been “ambitious” to do the film for a decade and found joy in working on it.

“I had been ambitious to do this film for 10 years, and there finally came a time when we all committed to that. It was a joyous moment for me. I think it’s a rare situation that I find myself in,” Harrison said.

“I’ve been able to deliver amazing films developed by Steven [Spielberg] and George [Lucas] over a 40-year period, and to end it not with a whimper, but a bang, has been my greatest ambition for this excursion,” he told Total Film.
