Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the fifth movie in the franchise, is joining the four earlier films on Disney Plus in December, offering fans some potential binge-watching over the holidays. 

The globe-trotting flick, which premiered in theaters in June and stars Harrison Ford, presents a new challenge for Jones involving an ancient dial that could change the course of history, per a synopsis from Disney Plus. It’s directed by James Mangold and also stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge as Jones’ goddaughter, Helena. 

Indiana Jones 5 will be the last time fans see Ford as the legendary adventurer, according to an interview with the actor earlier this year. Here’s precisely when you’ll be able to watch it on Disney Plus, as well as how a VPN could potentially assist you with streaming.

How to watch Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny on Disney Plus

Indiana Jones 5 will be released globally on Dec. 1 at 12:01 a.m. PT (3:01 a.m. ET), unless you’re in Europe, the Middle East or Africa. In that case, one of three things is true: If you’re in Turkey, you can watch it on Jan. 3, if you’re in France, you can watch it on a yet-to-be-determined date, and everyone else can stream the film on Dec. 13.

There are two main Disney Plus plans you can subscribe to: ad-supported Disney Plus Basic, and ad-free Disney Plus Premium. Basic costs $8 a month, and the premium plan costs $14 a month or $140 a year (a yearly savings of $28). Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), The Temple of Doom (1984), The Last Crusade (1989) and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) are currently streaming on Disney Plus, and that’ll still be the case in December, according to Disney.
