Harrison Ford choked up Saturday while talking about the fifth installment of “Indiana Jones,” which will be the 80-year-old actor’s final turn as the whip-cracking archaeologist. “Thank you for making these movies such an incredible experience for all of us, giving us the opportunity to make these movies for you,” an emotional Ford said in a surprise appearance at Disney’s D23 show in Anaheim, California. As he paused for a second to collect himself, a cheer of support went up from the crowd. “I’m very proud to say that this is fantastic,” he continued, adding that his co-star Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who was with him on stage, “is one of the reasons.” Harrison Ford talks about “Indiana Jones 5” in front of the Disney D23 Expo audience on Saturday.

Ford injured his shoulder last year while rehearsing a fight scene for the film, but returned to the set within months to finish filming. The actor previously injured his back on the set of 1984’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. The star, who likes to do as many of his own stunts as possible, also injured his leg during the production of 2015’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and was injured off-camera during two minor plane crashes while was piloting the aircraft. Waller-Bridge, 37, joked that “keeping up” with Ford on set was “exhausting”. The film marks the legendary archaeologist’s first return to theaters since 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Ford first donned his famous fedora in 1981’s “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” which was followed by “Temple of Doom” and 1989’s “Indiana’s Jones and the Last Crusade,” in which Sean Connery played his father .
