Kevin Costner must really like Harrison Ford, as he essentially gifted the actor one of his biggest hits with Air Force One. Costner and Ford were two of Hollywood's biggest stars during the 1990s, and between them fronted an almost embarrassing number of box-office hits. Costner had JFK, Dances with Wolves and The Bodyguard, while Ford had his Jack Ryan movies and The Fugitive. Given the similarities between the pair, it's a surprise they've never worked together, though Costner was kind enough to hand the script for Air Force One to Ford. 1g6c3w

As a lifelong fan of the actor, I can safely say the Harrison Ford Shrinkingperformance is the best of his career so far. This isn’t a statement I make lightly. Growing up in the 1990s, VHS copies of Star Wars and Indiana Jones were my introduction to action cinema. Harrison Ford was one of the first actors I could point to and name as a kid, and this dedication continued into my teen years and beyond (especially when I was old enough to appreciate films like Patriot Games and Witness).

Rick Deckard, Indiana Jones, and the one and only Han Solo — the same man played all three of these iconic characters, and his name is Harrison Ford.

Then followed a decade of minor roles, including in American Graffiti, one of George Lucas' two good movies he made before the amazingStar Wars.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for Shrinking season 2, episode 4, "Made You Look"!Harrison Ford is still a highlight of Apple TV+'s comedy-drama Shrinking, but season 2 features a joke that doubles as a reminder that the actor nearly became Batman. The 82-year-old actor plays the veteran therapist Dr. Paul Rhoades, whose old-school methods often clash with his co-worker and fellow therapist, Jimmy (Jason Segel). Though Ford is one of the most notable of Shrinking's cast list, his involvement in the show is noteworthy for another reason.
