There’s obviously so many great Star Wars movie quotes from over the years, and some Yoda phrases are iconic. People quote Yoda all the time, but Harrison Ford can actually say he met the creature himself back when he was part of the original films.

In a conversation with GQ, Ridley Scott shared that the big guns behind Blade Runner seemingly took a little convincing when it came to casting Harrison Ford.

Blade Runner follows Deckard (Ford), a Blade Runner who must pursue and terminate four escaped Replicants who stole a ship in space and have returned to Earth to find their creator. Elsewhere in the GQ video, the Gladiator II filmmaker also opened up about his vision of “inventing a new world” with the sci-fi film.
