What is Harrison Ford's most iconic role?

[Jack Stevonovich]

Old man fantasies?

 

[NikkiNeversleep]

Lol don't judge.

 

[Jimmy McGill]

Anyone who says anything but Indiana Jones is under 30

I'm way over 30 and I'd say Han Solo, on the strength of never seeing any Movie where Ford is Indiana Jones

 

[Jack Stevonovich]

Lol don't judge.

You probably have one of those Chicago style valley girl accents too.

Most iconic is obviously Han, because of how big Star Wars is

His best role is Deckard

Getting knocked out in a Montana bar

You rang. Not supposed to use the Bat signal unless it's important.

I came for the Falfa post, but 90 50 took care of the 10-4, 20 20.

He had my man Milner, in the goddamn original Two-Lane 55. Milner in his coupe is a personal archetypal stamp, but that wasn't the question.

 

[Problem Child]

The Fugitive and Frantic are two of my faves.

Because he such a bad actor, the question of whether he was an android or not was spot on.

How dare you disrespect the HollyGOAT

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

Funny

I was just watching the original BR last night.

It isn't that.

It's between Solo and Indy.

No choosing

 

[Canned Tuna]

Definitely Rooster

He's such a good boy

Wasn’t Blade Runner a relative flop at the time?

Pretty much, Rick Deckard has become his 3rd most iconic role as Indy and Han but only as the film has built up status since release as well of course as the sequel.

I mean as a cultural phenomenon Star Wars far outweighs Indiana Jones. Han was a major part in that, but part of a collective at the same time. Whilst IJ is all about him the franchise as a whole just doesn’t have quite the same iconic status, imo.

Either way, very rare one actor has 2 genuinely iconic franchise roles like Ford. Only other guy I can think of is Stallone in Rocky and Rambo.

To think Lucas wanted Tom Selleck in the role, and only cast Ford as a last resort.

I thought about this earlier and would say that Arnold in Conan and Terminator would also be equivalent.

 

[I Am Legion]

It’s rare that an actor has 1 iconic role, let alone multiple like Ford has had. Indiana and Han are both iconic. Neither franchises are what they are without him. I would argue his Jack Ryan, and Dr. Richard Kimble were iconic as well.

 

[IndyCovaHart]

Not you.

fien fu den

 

[IndyCovaHart]

I never saw the original Star Wars or Indiana Jones. To me he's the president who single handedly fought Russian terrorists off his plane.

That was definitely a good ass role.

Probably my favorite plane hijacking movie.

Wow that sounded wrong to say.

 

[LEWIS540]

I thought about this earlier and would say that Arnold in Conan and Terminator would also be equivalent.

I mean Conan would be a push, imo, and technically he played a different character in T1 and T2 but not a bad shout I guess.

Was thinking Mike Myers of all people, came close to (he arguably has 3).

Clint Eastwood? Ian McKellen?
