Harrison Ford is saying goodbye to Indiana Jones for good, with 'Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny' being the last time he plays the role. Here are behind-the-scenes secrets from past films.

is set to appear on-screen as Indiana Jones for the last time with the fifth installment of the franchise,"Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny."

HARRISON FORD CHOKES UP WHILE TALKING ABOUT HIS LAST 'INDIANA JONES' FILM AT DISNEY D23 EXPO: 'I'M VERY PROUD'George Lucas was inspired by his dog when it came to naming his protagonist in"Raiders of the Lost Ark." Ahead of the fifth Indiana Jones movie's release, Ford addressed the casting news himself, telling Deadline,"How I got the job? Tom Selleck had the job, but he also incurred an obligation to do a television series, and he was unable to get out of that contract."

Spielberg loved the look of the fiberglass boulder so much he wanted to maximize the amount of time it was seen on-screen, adding 50 feet to the track it was rolling down, putting more pressure on the crew whose job was to keep Ford safe, according to Entertainment Weekly. During a 1981 appearance on"The Dick Cavett Show," Spielberg revealed they ended up using 7,000 snakes in the final cut of the scene.Fans of the Indiana Jones franchise have likely noticed the second film is much darker, but what they may not know is that's because both Lucas and Spielberg were going through breakups when making the film.

Lucas and Spielberg continued the trend of using live animals in their films, choosing this time to use real bugs in the scene where Kate Capshaw's character is covered in bugs. More than 2,000 live bugs were used while filming the scene, making it look very realistic. In keeping with the tradition of using live animals rather than special effects, Lucas and Spielberg used more than 2,000 rats to film the Venetian Catacombs scene in which Jones and his companion set fire to catacombs while looking for clues to the Holy Grail, unleashing angry rats.

The Temple of the Sun seen in"Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" is a real place, called Al-Khazneh, found in Petra, Jordan. One main difference in the fourth film, when compared to two of its three predecessors, is rather than fighting against the Nazis, Jones is up against Russians and the Soviet army. This change can be attributed to Spielberg's Oscar-winning film"Schindler's List" in 1993.
