Although Harrison Ford is currently making headlines for his gruff nature on set, following his works on Captain America: Brave New World, the actor has been completely opposite, during his interviews. So much so that he even made waves for his witty remarks about his Apple TV+ show, Shrinking co-star Jason Segel.
While it was rumored that Harrison Ford wasn’t aware of who Jason Segel was, before collaborating on Shrinking, the veteran legend debunked the gossip with a hilarious anecdote. Appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, promoting the Apple TV+ show, Ford not only claimed to be aware of Segel’s works but also shared a rather interesting reaction to his role in Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
Harrison Ford flatly denied the rumor of not being aware of Jason Segel
Being a veteran legend who’s continuing his streak of delivering iconic shows and blockbuster movies, Harrison Ford shared the screen with the How I Met Your Mother star Jason Segel for their 2023 Apple TV+ show, Shrinking. But surprisingly, following their collaboration, there appeared a rumor that Ford didn’t know who his co-star was, before sharing the screen.
Now, before anyone could even address this rumor and come to terms with it, Harrison Ford flatly denied it. Appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, to promote his Apple TV+ show, Ford reflected on his gossip and debunked the speculations by naming two of Jason Segel’s movies that he enjoyed.
Not true. I knew who he was. I had seen a couple of films that he was in. I’d seen at least some of Forgetting Sarah Marshall… and I had also seen another film he did that was really fantastic, called The End of the Tour, which is really beautiful.
While Harrison Ford could have ended his remarks here, the actor decided to take things further. In an attempt to solidify his claims some more, the veteran legend reflected on Jason Segel’s role in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Now, for those who aren’t aware, Segel had a very NSFW scene in the movie. That’s exactly what Ford addressed during his discussion with Stephen Colbert.
Harrison Ford shared a hilarious story surrounding Forgetting Sarah Marshall
After naming two of Jason Segel’s movies that he had watched before working with the actor in Shrinking, Harrison Ford went on to praise the star for his sheer talent. Considering how he had changed the concept of male nudity on screen with his performance in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Ford praised the How I Met Your Mother star’s junk.
He’s a very talented guy. So I watched Sarah Marshall again. I thought it was really fantastic. The producer asked me what I thought and I said, ‘Nice p*nis.’
Harrison Ford’s unexpected praise for Jason Segel’s bold performance left Stephen Colbert and the audience in splits. His witty remark not only captured his dry humor but also helped him call out Jason Segel‘s hilarious lie (about Ford not knowing Segel). So, with this hilarious anecdote, the veteran star not only debunked the rumor but also proved his comedic side.
