Harrison Ford Was Adorably Surprised By Ke Huy Quan At The New "Indiana Jones" Movie Premiere, And His Reaction Was So Sweet
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
One of the most anticipated movies of the summer is Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. The fifth (and likely final) installment in the Indiana Jones franchise marks Harrison Ford's return to playing the character for the first time in 15 years.
Directed by James Mangold, The Dial of Destiny follows Indiana Jones (Harrison) as he embarks on a new quest to find the illusive Dial, a relic he first encountered in 1944. Now, 25 years later, he's forced to come out of retirement when his goddaughter, Helena (Phoebe Waller-Bridge), shows up looking for the Dial.
To celebrate the new film, Harrison, Phoebe, Karen Allen, and more attended The Dial of Destiny premiere in Los Angeles last night.
And it looked like it was also a celebration of 42 years (!!!!) of the Indiana Jones franchise, as Steven Spielberg and George Lucas surprised the crowd inside the theater by announcing John Williams was there to play the iconic Indiana Jones theme.
Anyway, while there were plenty of reunions happening, one of the best came on the red carpet while Harrison was doing an interview with Extra.
Mid-interview, you can see Ke Huy Quan, who starred as Short Round in Temple of Doom and recently won an Academy Award for his remarkable work in Everything Everywhere All at Once, pop up in the background.
Literally, this adorable human is JUMPING with excitement.

Eventually, Ke gets Harrison's attention and says, "Indy!" And the two of them hug.
Then, Harrison says, "You're all grown up," and I fully started sobbing.
Here's another angle of the moment, which really captures it all beautifully.
