How Harrison Ford's 'Indiana Jones' Co-Star 'Scared' Him On-Set

How could anyone ever pass up the opportunity to play a prank on the one and only Harrison Ford? One of his co-stars will never know.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who stars alongside the legendary actor in the new film Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, recently looked back at some of the antics that went on behind the scenes, including the priceless prank she was able to pull off while on set.
While speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Waller-Bridge, 37, detailed the hilarious moment when she "scared the crap" out of Ford, 80, who plays her godfather in the upcoming movie.
While using one of the very detailed masks of the actor's faces for the stunt doubles to wear, Waller-Bridge put on one mask of a young Ford that was created for a flashback scene—but she had better use for it. She wore the mask and surprised Ford in his trailer with it on, definitely giving him a bit of a fright.
"It scared the crap out of him, actually," she recalled. "Even though that 'actually' is only represented by him blinking three times and saying, 'Get the hell out of my trailer.'"
But, of course, Ford didn't let Waller-Bridge get the last laugh, as he returned the favor a short while later while wearing a mask of her face.
"We spent a lot of time fooling around," he confessed when asked about his and Waller-Bridge's mutual love for mischief.
Waller-Bridge had nothing but good things to say about working with Ford, which apparently never involves a dull moment.
"The most extraordinary thing about working with Harrison is that you're definitely at work—in that his work ethic is so on point, and his discipline is so extraordinary—but because he's that specific and the foundation of the work is really strong, the rest of it can be really fun," Waller-Bridge told EW, while admitting, "There were a lot of pranks... lots of pranks."
Ford's last crusade, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is set to premiere in theaters Friday, June 30.
