When you hear the name Harrison Ford—your mind more than likely resorts to his enthralling scenes in Indiana Jones and his famous role in the Star Wars franchise. To which we'll say: We don't blame you! But the actor's career (and life) has spanned decades, filled with many appearances on the big and small screen. It would be impossible to merely list all our favorite movies (and TV shows) starring Ford! But taking a look at his life through photos is a great way to start. We curated a list of young Harrison Ford pictures, dating all the way back from his early start in Hollywood to the current day.
Though Ford had some minor acting roles in the '60s, it wasn't until 1973 that he got his big break. Since then, Ford has gone on to star in many movies, often playing a heroic character. Even his most recent roles in Shrinking and 1923 prove that the star has always been a dreamboat! This list is comprised of many pictures of Ford in movies and TV shows, moments of him at the Oscars and other fun events, as well as photos of him in his personal life. Take a look through these, and pick your favorite era of Ford!
1973
If you were wondering what Ford's big break was, it was the 1973 film, American Graffiti, directed by George Lucas. He played Bob Falfa, a once famous drag racer, who eventually became a police officer. This would put Harrison Ford on the map for good.
1977
Ford is no stranger to paparazzi run-ins—which is evident at how effortlessly suave he looks in this photo. Beside him is his first wife, Mary Marquardt. (In the background you can see famous director, George Lucas.)
1977
The famous trio! Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford all look stunning in this shot from Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. It was the beginning of a long era for Star Wars fans everywhere, and the first time we were introduced to staple characters Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo (portrayed by Harrison Ford!).
1979
It's crazy how much a difference a subtle change in your hair can make! This shot is from Ford's role as Colonel Lucas in the 1979 flick, Apocalypse Now. The film also starred Hollywood icons Marlon Brando and Martin Sheen.
1981
Not sure if we've ever seen anyone look so cool. This shot of Ford in a hot tub at his home is probably one of the most famous photos of the '80s—and for good reason, too. It's also the same year he debuted Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
1982
Don't worry, the bruises are fake! They were created by the fantastic makeup team on the set of Blade Runner, another of Ford's famous movies at the time.
1983
It's safe to say that suits are his thing. This is a photo of Ford and his second wife, Melissa Mathison while at the Writer's Guild Awards in 1983.
1984
This photo of Indy alongside Willie (Kate Capshaw) and Short Round (Ke Huy Quan) was meant to promote Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, the second movie of the franchise. It ended up being one of the most iconic photos of the actor!
1986
This isn't the Ford we're used to, but we're not complaining! You may recognize this look from his 1986 film, Mosquito Coast. He's serving serious "vacation dad" looks with this one.
1991
Ford took a more somber approach with his role as Henry Turner, a knowledgable lawyer (turned-compassionate-lover). Is there any role he can't play?!
1995
Is that a... stache?! Just when we think he's done surprising us, he pulls another stunt. A pleasant stunt, might we add!
1997
The crossover we never knew we needed! This photo of Ford with Brad Pitt is from the premiere of their movie, The Devil's Own.
2000
New decade, new hair! Ford opted for a spiky look at the start of the 2000s, which was definitely in trend at the time!
2002
Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart, his now wife, walked the red carpet in style at K-19: The Widowmaker premiere! The two were all smiles!
2008
If you think you're seeing an earring, you're right! He sported the stud at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival when he premiered Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull.
2011
It seems like Ford gets cooler the older he gets. Look at his casual yet modern style he whipped up for the 2011 "Guys Choice" Awards! (Yes, that's Jeremy Renner next to him.)
2015
The trio at it again! This one is taken 38 years after their first appearance in Star Wars. Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher are the best photo companions, that's for sure!
2022
Hello, Jacob Dutton! Harrison entered the Yellowstone universe in hit prequel series, 1923—and we are forever grateful for it!
2023
Indy's still got it! Look at this wholesome reunion between him and Ke Huy Quan (aka Short Round) at the Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny premiere!
