It was announced in April she'd be appearing alongside Harrison Ford in the fifth instalment of the Indiana Jones franchise.

And Phoebe Waller-Bridge, 36, was spotted on set for the first time as she headed to filming in Glasgow, Scotland on Wednesday.

The actress, whose role is yet to be revealed, was dressed in Sixties attire as she walked along the city's Cochrane Street which had been transformed to look as if it was New York City during the time of the space race.

Harrison Ford, 79, who plays Indiana Jones, was not spotted on set after he sustained a shoulder injury in rehearsals. 

The star was instead replaced by a body double, who helped fill in for the Hollywood heavyweight. 

Several hundred extras are said to have been employed to films scenes for the movie in Scotland.

The streets have been dressed so they appear like New York City in a recreation of the days following the Apollo 11 spaceflight in 1969, with the traffic lights temporarily being replaced with bright yellow ones for authenticity.

Classic-style American cars could be seen parked, including a red fire engine, while Stars and Stripes flags could be seen hanging on the buildings. 

Director Steven Spielberg, who worked on the previous chapters from the franchise, is working as a producer on this film, joined by Kathleen Kennedy, Frank Marshall and Simon Emanuel.

Steven is being followed as director by James Mangold, who previously said in a statement: 'I’m thrilled to be starting a new adventure, collaborating with a dream team of all-time great film-makers.

'Steven, Harrison, Kathy, Frank, and John are all artistic heroes of mine. 

'When you add Phoebe, a dazzling actor, brilliant creative voice and the chemistry she will undoubtedly bring to our set, I can’t help but feel as lucky as himself.' 

The film follows Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull which was release in 2008 and made over $790million worldwide.

While the plot of the film is being kept top secret, the yet-to-be titled project is set for release in July 2022.  

Inside The Magic reported earlier this year that the latest film will be set during the 1960s space race.

The Illuminerdi reports that Harrison will take on villain Mads Mikkelsen, a Nazi scientist enlisted into NASA by the United States government to work on the space agency’s moon landing initiative.
