Mutt Williams, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

Introduced in 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Mutt Williams is the oft-forgotten son of Indiana Jones and Marion Ravenwood. Mutt doesn’t appear in person in Dial of Destiny but we learn that in the years between stories, Mutt went to Vietnam to spite his father and died there. The death drove a stake into Indy and Marion’s relationship, wrecking them both. Indy later says if he could travel anywhere in time, he wishes he could go back and tell Mutt not to go to war. It’s a poignant moment that really gave an otherwise polarizing character a true and emotional purpose.
