Harrison Ford on 'Captain America' at 82

Harrison Ford, at 82, is set to debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Thaddeus 'Thunderbolt' Ross in 'Captain America: Brave New World,' a role previously held by the late William Hurt. Ford humorously admitted that taking the role involved 'being an idiot for money,' a phrase he clarified as part of the fun and unconventional aspects of acting. The film will feature Ford's transformation into Red Hulk, requiring significant motion-capture work, which he found enjoyable. At San Diego Comic-Con, Ford expressed admiration for Hurt’s prior work and was delighted by the positive response to the movie's trailer. The event also confirmed Robert Downey Jr.'s return to the MCU, adding excitement for fans. Ford's co-star Anthony Mackie praised him as a motivating and down-to-earth presence on set.
