He continued, “Soon it’ll be time for his next ride, and I’m pleased to share that, for the first time ever, I’m the actual model of the Indiana Jones animatronic — fear of snakes included.”

Ford further teased, “I’m excited for you to see his next epic adventure, and I’m coming to Walt Disney World soon."

Fans expressed their excitement over Ford's announcement on Disney Parks’ Instagram handle and filled the comment section with their love and support.
