Legendary composer John Williams, who celebrated his 90th birthday at Celebration, is also set to return, continuing a musical legacy that began 40 years ago with “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”

German actor Thomas Kretschmann, best known to audiences for playing Baron Wolfgang von Strucker in “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” has joined the cast of “Indiana Jones 5” in an undisclosed role, first reported.

Jonathan Kasdan (“Solo: A Star Wars Story”) was brought on to edit the script in 2018 after original screenwriter David Koepp, who penned 2008’s “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” exited the project. Kasdan’s involvement continues a family tradition; his father, Lawrence Kasdan, wrote “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”

Kathleen Kennedy, Frank Marshall and Simon Emanuel will serve as producers.
