Breaking news! Ke Huy Quan returns<\/a> as Short Round! In an\u2026 Indiana Jones-themed viral video. We know, we know. That first part is news we\u2019ve all been waiting for decades to hear, and maybe one day we will<\/a>. But, for now, Disney has given us the next best thing. Quan slapping on his signature baseball cap and delivering a few iconic lines on Disneyland\u2019s Indiana Jones ride<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Along with his Zootopia 2 co-star Ginnifer Goodwin, Quan is tasked with riding the popular attraction without reacting. It\u2019s fun and cute, but the best part of the video is the Oscar winner<\/a> slipping into his iconic character with a few memorable quotes. Check it out.<\/p>\n

Even if you aren\u2019t an Indiana Jones mega fan, that video is pure joy. But if you are one of those people who grew up with Quan\u2019s characters and think Short Round is, definitely, Indiana Jones\u2019 best sidekick ever, this is pure magic. Quan\u2019s never been shy about his love for Indy or the character, and his reunion with Harrison Ford<\/a> a few years back almost broke the Internet. So to see him throw on a baseball cap and tell us to \u201chold on to our potatoes\u201d somehow makes everything in this messed-up world okay.<\/p>\n

Of course, there have long been rumors of Disney exploring ways to continue<\/a> the Indiana Jones franchise after Dial of Destiny, and the fact that Quan had such an epic comeback a few years ago with Everything Everywhere All At Once makes that route seem easy. Do a Short Round show or movie. Nevertheless, that\u2019s probably not going to happen, but at least every once in a while, we get something awesome like this.<\/p>\n

You can currently see Ke Huy Quan as one of the main voices in Zootopia 2, and you can read our review of that here.<\/a><\/p>\n
