In a recent interview with USA Today, Harrison Ford again ducked any questions about his involvement with Star Wars: Episode VII.
When asked if he will indeed be returning to the role of Han Solo the actor simply stated: “I got nothing to say about that.”
It seems this is becoming a running theme when Ford is asked about Star Wars, though this time he did offer some reasoning for his reluctance to talk about the new entry into the Star Wars saga.
He said: “If someone says ‘Trust me,’ and it’s not a sushi chef in a sushi bar, I’m immediately suspicious. I’m not a faith-based actor.”
Ford has always been known as a very private person who doesn’t ever talk about his personal life in interviews and the article goes on to state that he “does not suffer fools or internet rumors gladly”, so I guess I can understand his not wanting to talk about Star Wars, especially given the fact that someone like ME is indeed a fool and has made a life here at FTN by spreading internet rumors.
I really do wish that we could drop all this pretense though as George Lucas has all but confirmed that the main trio will indeed be back for the film. I need some leaked plot details!

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
