With the career that Harrison Ford has enjoyed so far – and is still enjoying – the search for new challenges may seem unlikely, but reveling in the 80 years he has earned up to this point, Ford appears to have simple requirements for new roles. In the case of 1923 it was the obvious quality of the work that attracted him, whereas the role of Thunderbolt Ross – formerly occupied by the late Oscar-winning actor William Hurt – laid out a more simple attraction.

“Hey, look, I’ve done a lot of things. I now want to do some of the things I haven’t done.”
He’s been the greatest action hero in cinema history with a final sixth turn coming 30th June next summer in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the iconic Han Solo in the GFFA, was Oscar-nominated for Witness and been on the Mount Rushmore of box office draws, but a superhero flick has never been a part of that, until now.
On the subject of Thunderbolt Ross playing Red Hulk (which you can see above in a fan-made image), Ford remained tight-lipped; literally.
Exploring the galaxy since 1978, Mark wrote his first fan fiction in '81 and been a presence online since his first webpage Fanta War in 1996. He currently contributes to ILM.com and SkywalkerSound.com, having previously written for Star Wars Insider, StarWars.com, Star Wars Encyclopedia, Build The Millennium Falcon, Starburst Magazine, Geeky Monkey, TV Film Memorabilia and Model and Collectors Mart.
He is a four-time Star Wars Celebration Stage host (the only podcaster to have appeared on every Celebration podcast stage since it began in 2015), the Daily Content Manager of Fantha Tracks and the co-host of Making Tracks, Canon Fodder and Start Your Engines on Fantha Tracks Radio.
