Harrison Ford has been officially declared a legend — a Disney Legend that is. On Sunday at the D23 Expo, Ford was honored with the hall-of-fame-style award from the Walt Disney Company.
Because Lucasfilm is owned by Disney, Ford’s most famous roles — like Han Solo from “Star Wars” and the adventuring archaeologist Indiana Jones — cement him as one of the studio’s most iconic actors.
Next February, Ford continues his legendary run at the studio by starring in Marvel Studios’ “Captain America: Brave New World” as Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, the U.S.
President who memorably transforms into Red Hulk. Bob Iger took the stage to present Ford with the first award of the night. “Before he was the captain of the Millennium Falcon or a globetrotting archeologist, Harrison Ford was, like so many, an aspiring actor who came to Hollywood to pursue their dreams,” Iger teased to thunderous applause at the Honda Center. “He is the definition of a leading man, who stands alone in a category all his own.” After a montage of Harrison’s most iconic work, Ford took the stage to an enthusiastic standing ovation.
