You Need To Watch This Resurfaced Clip Of Harrison Ford Being Told He's 'Still Very Hot' In His 80s, Because…Where's The Lie?
Anyone with good taste knows that Harrison Ford is one of the coolest, funniest, most iconic, and stylish people to have ever graced Hollywood. I mean, look at the material. Well, yes! There's a reason that today's stars are always trying — and failing (sorry) — to recreate the magic of this photograph from 1982. Here's where you can find Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal's recent takes on the pic and judge for yourself. OK, now that I've had a good excuse to go through the Harrison Ford Getty archive, I must bring your attention to this clip from the 2023 Cannes Film Festival that is currently going viral. Related: 13 Celebs Who Opened Up Publicly About Their Sobriety For context, Harrison was at the festival in 2023 for the premiere of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the latest installment in the beloved franchise in which, for over 40 years, he's played a hot, fedora-wearing archaeologist. I'm sure you're familiar. In the newest movie, there is a scene in which Harrison takes off his shirt. And during the Cannes press conference in 2023, one rather outspoken reporter made a point of sharing how much she enjoyed it. In the clip, which was recently reposted on X and has over 1.4 million views, the reporter can be heard telling Harrison: 'Look, I still think you're very hot,' prompting the actor to lean forward in intrigue. 'We were stunned to see you take your shirt off in the second scene, it's just— you've still got it,' she added. 'How do you keep fit?'

But, as this clip shows, being described as 'very hot' at 80 years old certainly appeared to catch him off guard. Fumbling his words as he played up to the jeering crowd, Harrison replied: 'Look, I've been blessed with this body. Thanks for noticing.' Honestly, the comedic timing? Impeccable. The resurfacing of this clip has brought me so much joy, and it seems like I'm not the only one. Truly one of the greatest to ever do it. You can watch the full clip here.

Tom Cruise plans to make movies 'into my 100s': 'I will never stop'
He may not be hanging off planes 40 years from now, but Tom Cruise is reassuring moviegoers he will never retire from acting. Ahead of the release of his latest Mission: Impossible adventure, Cruise, 62, said he plans to act well past his 100th birthday. Two years ago, while promoting Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, Cruise told the Sydney Morning Herald that he was inspired by how Harrison Ford returned for a fifth outing as swashbuckling archeologist Indiana Jones in the Dial of Destiny. 'Harrison Ford is a legend, I hope to be still going, I've got 20 years to catch up with him,' Cruise said at the time. 'I hope to keep making Mission: Impossible films until I'm his age.' But speaking this week to The Hollywood Reporter in New York City, Cruise revealed he has revised his timeline. 'I (previously) said I'm going to make movies into my 80s,' Cruise told the outlet at the film's premiere outside the Lincoln Center. 'Actually, I'm going to make them into my 100s.' He continued by promising he doesn't have an off switch and he'll never exit the stage. 'I will never stop. I will never stop doing action, I will never stop doing drama, comedy films — I'm excited,' he continued. In Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, Cruise returns as Impossible Mission Force Agent Ethan Hunt for the eighth — and presumably — final time. In keeping with the nearly 30-year-old franchise's penchant to see its star performing death-defying onscreen stunts, Cruise hangs on for dear life as he hits zero G between the wings of a biplane as it flips and cavorts during a midair chase sequence that was shot in Africa. Elsewhere in the new movie, Cruise pushes himself to the limits as he performs 'an underwater sequence unlike any other.' Looking back on the series while speaking to Postmedia in 2023, Cruise credited the Mission: Impossible films for allowing him to realize the childhood dreams he had of becoming an actor. 'I always wanted to go make movies and travel the world. I wanted to be in other cultures, and not just visit,' he said. 'You get to know people by working with them … Every time there's always something new … That's what I love doing.' During his Final Reckoning press tour, Entertainment Tonight asked Cruise if he was Hollywood's 'last movie star' and the Oscar-nominated actor downplayed the notion that there will be no one else like him. 'I don't want to be,' Cruise said. 'There's so many other talented actors out there and I want to see them crush it.' Cruise namechecked Sinners star Michael B. Jordan and the vampire thriller's writer and director Ryan Coogler as two names he thinks are redefining what it means to be a 'star.' Since its release last month, Sinners has become one of the biggest original horror movies at the box office in years. 'I'm a huge fan of his,' Cruise said, heaping praise on Jordan. 'That film Sinners is amazing. We're going to make a movie together.' In a separate interview with PEOPLE, Cruise continued to gush over Jordan, who helped expand the Rocky cinematic universe with his Creed film series and also appeared in Coogler's Black Panther movies. 'He's dedicated to his brand. I really respect him. Respect Coogler, I love that film. I love the films that they make. It's brilliant, you know, big cinema … I admire what they do and I love to see people do well in life,' Cruise said. 'That is a thing that I work very hard to do … Filmmakers, actors — people know my door's always open, so I'm very excited about what they're creating and it's always inspiring. It goes back and forth.' Cruise has also found himself becoming an unintended popcorn crusader thanks to viral videos that have been shared to social media of him munching down on the movie snack. In a video posted by user @seifwtf on X that has been viewed more than 4.8 million times, Cruise is seen eagerly tossing kernels into his mouth while at the British Film Institute earlier this month. 'I find that I like him even more now,' one person commented, while another added, 'I have got to change the way I eat popcorn.' Cruise spoke about the video during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show this week when Darius Butler said he had 'never seen anybody eat popcorn like this.' 'Are you actually eating popcorn or are you full of s— right here, TC? I've got to know,' Butler asked. 'Man, I'm eating popcorn,' Cruise said with a laugh. 'They know when I'm going to these movies that I'm watching, I'm eating popcorn.' Cruise, who chatted with theatre employees in New York while snacking, also told one audience that he eats two buckets of popcorn when he goes to the movies. 'I normally eat two big buckets myself during a movie,' he said. Another viral video with almost 20 million views showed Cruise walking into a theatre and 'calling out a fan for finishing their popcorn before the movie starts.' 'You ate all your popcorn already,' Cruise quipped. 'You gotta go get some more.' Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is now playing in theatres. mdaniell@ 'Mission: Impossible' director Christopher McQuarrie breaks down Tom Cruise's terrifying new stunts Tom Cruise 'passed out' filming new 'Mission: Impossible' stunt Reddit X Share on Linkedin Open more share options Breadcrumb Trail Links Movies 'Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning' director says viewer 'almost had a heart attack' watching Tom Cruise stunts

Trump film tariff proves Scottish film cannot sell out to Hollywood
In layman's terms, the Scottish Government aimed to offer enticing tax reliefs and accommodating terms to attract Hollywood studios – following local economic boosts from major productions like Fast & Furious 9 in Edinburgh and the then-upcoming Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny in Glasgow. This aligns with an increasing trend in Hollywood production, where filming in Los Angeles and across California has declined by a third over the past decade, shifting instead to international locations. Rising labour costs – exacerbated by recent strikes – and more favourable terms abroad have progressively deterred studios from filming in their own backyard. Read more: How the Scottish Government made a deal with Hollywood and lost Scotland has been one of the countries capitalising on this shift. However, that opportunity may now be abruptly ending, with President Donald Trump announcing that all films produced in 'foreign lands' will face a 100% tariff. 'Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated. This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda!' the President declared on his social media platform, Truth Social. Cue panic. This would destroy Scotland's recent trajectory of positioning itself as a production hub – a Hollywood satellite state – in an effort to boost tourism and economic opportunities. Such a decision makes Scottish film fall on its sword, rather than building and developing less lucrative but more culturally meaningful domestic production. It is not just Scotland's problem – England, Ireland, and various European countries also see an existential threat to their film sectors from tracking in the same direction. Is this tenuous type of arrangement really the direction we want for the arts, though? Trump's erratic behaviour may be a blessing in disguise in that regard. Instead of funding culture that Scotland can call its own, the focus has been on cultural sectors competing as commercial entities, and finding itself out of its depth fairly often. There is still a chance to recover from the damage and push forward whatever results from such a tariff, but it requires such a mammoth mind shift on what national culture means, what it is supposed to do, how the levers of production are greased, and how Scotland can be enriched without prioritising an economic focus. What worth does the arts have outside of the limited capacity that production and distribution under capitalism can afford? Artless political wonks will be the last ones to understand this question and have the answers, most likely. When BBC soap opera River City finally got the axe after 23 years, it portrayed an existential threat to Scotland's television sector. But if an industry sees potential collapse because one soap opera has stopped being produced, then it is not much of an industry in the first place. Foundations have not been built correctly, no genuine effort into long-term thinking has occurred, and those who make their living in these sectors are the ones forced to pay in the end. Within this crisis lies an opportunity. A 100% tariff on foreign productions could force a reckoning: either double down on what is now a failed race to the bottom (competing with other countries for ever-larger incentives) or pivot toward something more resilient and truer to purpose and form. Imagine a Scottish film industry that prioritises domestic voices, invests in sustainable production networks, and treats culture as a public good rather than a magnet for corporate subsidy. Or, imagine this: stop thinking of film and the arts as industries in the first place. Read more: Arts funding in Scotland is drowning in a sea of neglect The question isn't how to survive Trump's tariffs, but why Scotland makes films at all. Is it to mimic Hollywood on a smaller scale, or is it to build an artistic voice – to tell stories, express thoughts and feelings, that couldn't and wouldn't be expressed elsewhere? The answer will determine whether the next decade brings creative stagnation or a genuine cultural revival. The cynic in me might be too apprehensive to see that far into the future. The full-blown tariff is likely typical Trump bluster, something that will soften or be quietly dropped altogether. He is already stressing the importance of what Hollywood thinks, and how studios can work with such a tariff, and it is a concern raised by Keir Starmer in the recent US-UK trade deal that is now being finalised. The last thing Trump genuinely wants is for Hollywood to fail; he is a strange byproduct of American Hollywood thinking after all. Trump once wished to be part of the club, despite all the talk of liberal media elites, and that part of him has never truly left. Either way, it has revealed the truly rocky terrain on the horizon for how Scotland perceives and produces the arts, and it shouldn't be the next scare where we finally realise.
