Harrison Ford raised concerns among fans following his recent appearance at Disney’s D23 Expo in August, where he accepted the Disney Legend honor.
The 82-year-old actor received a prestigious hall-of-fame-style award, recognizing his significant contributions to Lucasfilm, a subsidiary of Disney.
Ford’s legendary roles — most notably Han Solo from Star Wars and the adventurous archaeologist Indiana Jones — have firmly established him as one of the studio’s most iconic figures.
During the ceremony, Ford left his handprints in cement, though fans observed that he had difficulty signing his name beside them. A video of the event was shared on the Good Morning America Instagram page, prompting a range of reactions in the comments.
‘He does not look well,’ a concerned fan posted, as another wrote, ‘Congrats to him, but it breaks my heart to see him so frail.’

Another chimed in, ‘Is anyone else concerned one hand was more pressed than the other?’
‘Tough to see my guy getting old,’ said another.
Yet a fifth fan added, ‘Shoot he does not look well.’
When the actor took the stage to accept the award from Disney CEO Bob Iger at the August 11 event, he expressed his heartfelt gratitude to his fans.
‘I love the life you’ve given me,’ he told the audience, per Variety.
‘I love the people that I’ve had the opportunity to work with. Nobody does anything in this business for long. We work in collaboration, no matter what who we are and what we’re doing.’
He choked up as he added, ‘The stories are for you, about you, about us. To be able to work in that area is a privilege.’
The eyebrow-raising event comes after Harrison’s wife of more than 21 years, Calista Flockhart, revealed that the secret to their lasting relationship is lots of laughter, which often stems from the practical jokes they play on one another.

In an interview with The New York Times, the Ally McBeal alum admitted the couple playfully hided around corners at home and use fake bugs to startle each other.
She said become quite proficient at surprising Ford, playfully christening herself the ‘Scare Monster’ at home.
‘Because I hide behind every corner,’ she explained. ‘And so Harrison will walk in, and then I’ll go, ‘Raaah!’ And he’ll go, ‘W-uy-aah!’ And then I die laughing.’
‘I’ll put a plastic spider inside his big ice cubes in the tray, and then he’ll drink it,’ Flockhart added.
‘But then I’ll go to bed two weeks later, and he’s out of town in Jackson, and I’ll take the covers down and there’s this little rubber scorpion. It’s fun.’
The adorable couple first met at the 59th Golden Globe Awards in 2002 and soon began dating.
At that time, Harrison was 60 years old, whereas Calista was 38, resulting in a significant 22-year age gap between them.

After their divorce in 1979, Ford married Melissa Mathison in 1983, and they also had two children named Malcolm and Georgia.
His marriage to Mathison ended in divorce in 2004.
