Veteran actor Harrison Ford recently revealed that, early in his career, a Hollywood studio executive told him he had “no future in the business” unless he drastically changed his name and appearance.
During an interview published by Variety, Ford recounted being summoned in the 1960s to the office of the head of new talent at Columbia Pictures, where he was under contract for $150 per week. Around that time, Ford made his first on-screen appearance in the 1966 comedy crime film “Dead Heat on a Merry-Go-Round.”
