'She's wonderful': Harrison Ford delighted to reunite with 'The Mosquito Coast' co-star Helen Mirren in '1923'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Harrison Ford's on-screen chemistry with Helen Mirren dates back 36 years. The duo has now come together for a 'Yellowstone' franchise show titled ‘1923’. The series is a prequel to 'Yellowstone' where the fans will see the powerhouse actors reunite for the first time after Peter Weir’s 1986 movie ‘The Mosquito Coast’. Ford spoke about his co-actor at the Hollywood Legion Theatre Post 43 series premiere on Friday evening, December 2, 2022. The 80-year-old actor shared that he still respects Mirren, 77, professionalism and work ethic even today. "I admire her work and her person [now], and I have all the same degree of admiration for her as I did then," said Ford to media outlets.
"She's wonderful, she's just a lovely person, and so it's been both a professional pleasure and a personal pleasure working with her again," the 'Indiana Jones' actor added. Mirren considered herself "nobody" in 1986, while, on the other side, Ford had a huge fan following with two 'Indiana Jones' movies under his belt, and also featured in the original 'Star Wars' trilogy. "When we first worked together, he was a huge movie star and I was like nobody. I was very intimidated, very intimidated,” recalled Mirren, who a couple of decades later won the Academy Award for 'The Queen'.
