And Now, the Comedy Stylings of Harrison Ford…
The actor says he has played every role for laughs. After ‘Shrinking,’ people are finally catching on. “I’m a silly person,” Ford insists (probably pointing his finger).
It took the Apple TV+ comedy series Shrinking, in which Ford plays a gruff senior therapist at a clinic opposite Jason Segel and Jessica Williams, to highlight that the actor everyone considered the thinking man’s action hero was really a comedian at heart. But then when he got there, we’re like, Oh shit, he has a lot more tools than that.” Ford’s Dr. Paul Rhoades is not only a truth-telling fatherly figure to Segel’s widowed therapist, Jimmy Laird, but his toughness has been shown to mask a vulnerability within himself that is both comical and emotional. Ford has been willing to sing a pop song at the top of his lungs to silence a younger colleague, perform a one-man Cheech & Chong-esque routine after Dr. Paul consumes too many pot gummies, and shamelessly mock his own self-serious reputation in less-than-dignified situations.
