In a recent episode of Conan O’Brien‘s talk show, Hollywood legend Harrison Ford made a surprising confession – he hates The Smurfs. The audience erupted in applause as Ford expressed his annoyance with the little blue creatures who seem to be everywhere these days.
Conan commended Ford on his incredible body of work and his enduring connection with audiences. Ford, however, downplayed the excitement, stating that he’s used to the attention. “Everywhere you go, you walk into a donut shop and everyone…” Conan playfully interrupted, implying that even donut shop patrons recognize Ford’s iconic status. Ford chuckled and thanked the audience for their support.
But the conversation took an interesting turn when Conan brought up Ford’s recent movie, which happened to have beaten The Smurfs at the box office. Ford’s film came out on top, raking in a significant amount of money, much to his satisfaction. Ford emphasized that they beat the Smurfs “by almost a lot of money,” seemingly relishing in the victory.
Playing on the rivalry, Conan teasingly suggested that Ford might be harboring some anger towards the Smurfs. Ford responded with a smirk that indicated there may be some truth to the jest. “I’m annoyed,” Ford admitted, laughing along with the audience.
Curiosity piqued, Conan asked if Ford would take his kids to see The Smurfs if they asked. Ford revealed that his wife had already taken their son to see the movie and, to his surprise, his son got into Ford’s film for free. Ford humorously lamented the fact that some of the money that went to the Smurfs came from his own son’s pocket, emphasizing that it didn’t sit right with him.
The exchange between Ford and Conan was lighthearted and playful, showcasing Ford’s candid and relatable personality. As the interview came to a close, the audience broke into applause, entertained by Harrison Ford‘s honest aversion to The Smurfs.
