Daisy Ridley and John Boyega were both relatively obscure actors when they began shooting The Force Awakens. So it must have been pretty surreal to suddenly be filming scenes with that solid gold icon of cinema, Harrison Ford. Even getting Ford for the project seems like it must have been an uphill task, as his hobbies these days are less acting and more getting stoned and flying a plane around. But, probably down to the promise that this would put a capstone on Han Solo's story, Ford showed up and delivered an excellent performance.
