In 2023, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny underperformed when it was released in theaters, falling short of its box office expectations. In fact, the final adventure for Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones wound up costing Disney quite a bit of money at the box office, with a new report shedding light on just how painful the losses were for the House of Mouse.
Per Forbes, Disney reportedly lost $134.2 million on Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, spending that amount more than what the film made at the box office. Part of the losses come from the tremendously high budget for the sequel, with added post-production costs of $79 million raising the overall budget to $387.2 million. The film would ultimately gross $384 million at theaters, just under half of the haul pulled in by 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It’s also noted that the studios receive half of box office revenue, and Disney is estimated to have earned $192 million for Dial of Destiny.
Harrison Ford has stated that this will be his final movie starring as the famous adventurer. The franchise could still potentially move on, even if its lack of box office success might make that seem unlikely. Phoebe Waller-Bridge agrees that there’s no “replacing” the character, though she still felt that there was story potential to explore with Helena Shaw.
