Harrison Ford, who portrays the role of Han Solo in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," admitted to having seen the movie before its release on Dec. 18.
Ford , 73, revealed in an interview with ABC's Good Morning America that he had alreadly watched the movie, describing it as great.
"It's a wonderful movie, it's got great production values. It's a real big movie and I was delighted to see it," the actor said.
Indiana Jones, one of Ford's most famous characters, was also mentioned in the said interview. Ford was asked if there will be another Indy Film coming and his response was, "I'd love to do another Indiana Jones and work with Steven [Spielberg] again - if we get a script, I'd love to do it."
Ford was initially not a fan of his character. He often blatantly wished that Solo's life had been ended in "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi" to strengthen the emotions in the final film of the original trilogy. But according to Entertainment Weekly, the actor changed his mind as the world awaits for his comeback in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."
"I was glad that the character was still alive for me to play in this new iteration," he stated.
The "Star Wars" actor acquired the role after a very convincing Han-solo stand-in audition, outshining other famous actors like Al Pacino and Kurt Russell. It is just not enough to say that Ford plays the role of Solo. Ford is Solo.
Last March, Ford survived an aircraft accident leaving him slightly limped and a scar on his chin. Ford had a crash landing because his World War II-era training fighter had engine malfunction then fell from the sky.
"I've been flying for 20 years, and it was a very rare thing to happen," says Ford. He also said that the accident was purely a mechanical issue and that there's nobody else to blame. There was no fault in the aircraft's maintenance.
The tragedy didn't keep Ford from flying again for too long. "I got back in the helicopter first, because my foot was still in the cast, my toes were hanging out. It was the easiest aircraft to get into [that I'd still] be capable, and safe, to fly."
