"Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark" star Karen Allen says she was a "disappointed" by her minimal role in the final film in the series with Harrison Ford.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Allen explained changes with the story after Steven Spielberg stepped down from directing.
"When Steven was still going to direct the film, I didn’t have the opportunity to read any of those scripts, although I know that Marion was much more involved in the story at that juncture," Allen told the outlet. "So, I knew James [Mangold] had hired new writers and that there was going to be a whole new approach with a new director and new writers, but I was really going into the unknown.
"The next thing I knew, I was reading a script that told [‘Dial of Destiny’s’] story, and, of course, I was disappointed. I had thought that I would be majorly a part of the film, and that was just not the direction they decided to go."
