New props inspired by “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” have been added to Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar in Disney Springs.
Atop one of these wall-mounted bookshelves is a new brown leather bag.
Papers and photos are spilling out of the bag, including a more recent photo of Harrison Ford’s Indiana Jones.
There are several new items in the lost and found cabinet near the restrooms.
Some of the other props in the lost and found have been moved around to make room for the new items.
There’s a journal featuring a Dial of Destiny diagram.
There are also two decks of playing cards in a leather carrying case.
A golden clock has a tag reading “Happy retirement Dr. Jones!”
A clock is a traditional gift for retirees.
This framed bulletin board has something new.
There’s a photo of Indy, his friend Basil Shaw, and Basil’s daughter (and Indy’s goddaughter) Helena Shaw.
Watch our original tour of Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar from its grand opening seven years ago:
Over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, guests can enjoy the Den of Destiny featuring props and drinks inspired by the film.
“Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 18. It opened in theaters on June 30.
The MPAA rates the movie PG-13. According to their classification, the rating is due to “sequences of violence and action, language and smoking.” While the rating itself doesn’t add much to what can be expected in the fifth and final film, it is an interesting reminder that the second film of the franchise, “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” was a main catalyst (alongside “Gremlins”) that led the MPAA to create the PG-13 classification in the first place.
“Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” takes place in 1969, amidst the space race. Indiana Jones will encounter his old enemy, the Nazis, again. The antagonist, Voller, is a villain inspired by Wernher von Braun — a real Nazi who became a NASA engineer.
The teaser trailer and artwork for the film debuted in December. A second teaser for “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” premiered during Super Bowl LVII.
Harrison Ford, now 80 years old, stated this will be his last “Indiana Jones” movie.
Before the film’s full title was announced, Empire shared behind-the-scenes photos and interviews with the cast last November.
“It’s full of adventure, full of laughs, full of real emotion. And it’s complex and it’s sneaky,” Ford said at the time. “The shooting of it was tough and long and arduous. But I’m very happy with the film that we have.”
It’s rumored that an Indiana Jones TV series could be in development for Disney+. It remains unclear if the storyline of this series would be a prequel to the films, set somewhere inside the franchise narrative, or following a totally new character rather than Henry Jones Jr. If this series is developed, it would not be the first TV show about Indiana Jones. In 1992-1993, “The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles” aired on ABC. Harrison Ford made a cameo appearance in one episode.

A “Rogers: The Musical” photo op is now available behind Hollywood Lounge at Disney California Adventure in time for the show’s debut today.
The photo op is a yellow backdrop featuring the silhouette of Captain America holding his shield.
“Hyperion” is across the top, in a design resembling the light-up marquee of the theater. Guests stand between the backdrop and the short, sparkly “Rogers: The Musical” standee in front of it.
Guests can also hold Captain America’s shield for their photo.
The new Disney California Adventure guidemap also features “Rogers: The Musical” on the front.
Here is an official description of this new musical experience:
Exploring universal themes of heroism, romance and self-discovery, “Rogers: The Musical” is an exhilarating and heartfelt experience for Super Hero fans, theater enthusiasts and families alike. Avengers aficionados will appreciate creative interpretations of iconic objects and moments from Steve’s journey, while theater fans will love the eclectic array of musical styles in the score and the show’s original choreography.
“Rogers: The Musical” at Disney California Adventure park is inspired by the fictional Broadway musical theater sequence featured in the first episode of the Disney+ series “Hawkeye.” This new musical project will come to life through the creativity of Disney Live Entertainment in partnership with book writer Hunter Bell, star and book writer of the Tony Award-nominated “[title of show],” and will feature five all-new songs with music by Grammy-winning composer Christopher Lennertz and lyrics by Jordan Peterson, Christopher Lennertz and Alex Karukas. Plus, fan-favorites songs “Save The City” from the Disney+ series “Hawkeye” (written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman), and “Star Spangled Man” from the film “Captain America: The First Avenger” (written by Alan Menken and David Zippel).
“Rogers: The Musical” will be performed several times per day, Tuesday through Saturday, most weeks from June 30 through August 31, 2023. A virtual queue system will be available in the Disneyland app. Joining the virtual queue is not required, but is highly recommended, similar to “World of Color – ONE” also at Disney California Adventure.
Each day that the show is being performed, distribution for the complimentary virtual queue will begin at 10:30 a.m. PT for the first two show times of the day and 2:00 p.m. PT for the remaining show times of the day. Guests won’t be able to choose their showtime. They will be called back to the Hyperion Theater when the physical queue is ready to open, approximately 30-45 minutes before the show.
How-to details on the virtual queue system are available at Disneyland.com. If the virtual queue reaches capacity, you can check in at the Hyperion Theater before “Rogers: The Musical” begins for walk-up viewing options.
“Rogers: The Musical” themed food and beverage items will be available throughout Disney California Adventure during the show’s run.
Guests can also purchase a Premium Viewing Experience package including the popcorn bucket and priority seating from the Studio Catering Co. Truck in Hollywood Land.
Yesterday, we got our first look at new “Rogers: The Musical” merchandise.
Stay tuned for full coverage of the show.
