À propos de cet audio
Harrison Ford is once again making headlines this week for proving Hollywood’s rules just don’t apply to him. In an interview with Variety published July 31, Ford flatly declared he will never retire, emphasizing that “they need old people too, to play old people’s parts,” and that continuing to work is what gives him joy. Multiple outlets including People, Fox News, and IMDb News have picked up this affirmation, pointing out how the 83-year-old legend remains as busy as ever, following up a run of blockbuster roles with a string of acclaimed TV appearances in series like 1923 and Shrinking, the latter having garnered him his first Emmy nomination for his portrayal of a therapist with Parkinson’s. This major revelation about continuing his career well past the conventional retirement age is widely viewed as biographically significant, both for what it says about Ford personally and the shifting expectations for aging in Hollywood.
On the news front, Ford stepped into the spotlight on August 1 in Teton Village, Wyoming, presenting filmmaker Jimmy Chin with an award at a Meru screening, creating plenty of local buzz and blending the worlds of Hollywood and adventure sports, according to Buckrail. The event was picked up by social media and community media in Jackson Hole, further cementing Ford’s continued public engagement and his status as a beloved figure in both entertainment and outdoor circles.
On the political front, Ford weighed in on the state of the nation in an interview with Variety, criticizing the Trump presidency, lamenting that “the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.” He reiterated his support for Kamala Harris, reflecting a rare moment of political candor and engagement from a star better known for keeping his private views to himself. Fox News detailed how he participated in a video endorsement for Harris in 2024, speaking out about defending the right to disagree and warning that Trump “wanted revenge.” His comments have received wide media attention, adding a political dimension to his recent public profile.
Meanwhile, a social media post from People’s Instagram on August 2 summed up Ford’s recent narrative with a quote, “Harrison Ford is living proof that rejection isn’t the end of the story—it’s often the beginning.” This comes as stories resurface about how he was once told by a Columbia Pictures executive to ditch his name and copy Elvis Presley if he ever wanted to make it, a bit of Hollywood lore highlighted again by Fox News and Variety in light of his current success.
Speculation on Ford’s emotional volatility surfaced briefly after a YouTube clip emerged purporting to show him storming off The View after a heated exchange with Joy Behar. However, details remain sketchy and unconfirmed, so there’s little basis for biographical interpretation just yet.
In sum, Harrison Ford’s week has been rich with personal revelations, high-visibility public appearances, politically charged commentary, and renewed celebration of his improbable, indelible Hollywood legacy.
