Karen Allen says an earlier version of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny was more of an Indy and Marion story

Karen Allen as Marion Ravenwood

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny featured a surprise cameo from Karen Allen's Marion Ravenwood – and Allen has revealed that a previous version of the film, set to be directed by Steven Spielberg, featured her character a lot more. 

"I think because the last time you see Indy and Marion, they've gotten married – I don't know that I thought we'd pick up from where we left off, but I did always imagine that it would be a story with Indy and Marion going forward," Allen told Variety. "When Steven was going to direct the film, I think the scripts were more focused on an Indy/Marion story. But when Steven stepped aside and James [Mangold] came in, he started fresh with new writers and they just went in the direction they went in."
