The British edition of GQ will have an exclusive interview with everyone's favorite smuggler, Harrison Ford in their January 2016 issue. It sounds like Ford has really come around from the curmudgeon giving grudging interviews about
Star Wars, as he did in the past. You could say he's a convert!
On the Han Solo from the original trilogy:
“I was happy enough with the character but I thought there ought to be... more. As we did a sequel, there was the romance with Leia and the tensions with Luke that I thought was fine, and in the third one I thought let’s have Solo [killed]. I thought let’s get some bottom in this, add some bass notes to this thing. To me [killing Solo] seemed like the obvious utility, to have him whacked and create some drama. That didn’t happen. And thank God no one listened to me!”
