Should he have made them?

Actors may appear all buddy-buddy on the screen, but sometimes, when the cameras stop rolling, things get ugly. According to some sources, Kim Cattrall was regularly treated like dirt by Sarah Jessica Parker and her other Sex and the City co-stars. The late Rip Torn physically attacked people on set. And the way Bill Murray allegedly treated Lucy Liu on the set of the 2000s Charlie’s Angels doesn’t paint him in the best light.
Very little can compare to the horrific accusation Harrison Ford reportedly made toward co-star Oscar Isaac on the set of 2015’s The Force Awakens. According to Isaac, the Indiana Jones star accused Isaac of wearing a wig.
Harrison Ford: Wig Detective
In 2015, while promoting The Force Awakens, Isaac recounted the traumatic accusation on an episode of Conan. Isaac said during filming at one point he could “feel” someone staring at him, and turned to find Harrison Ford staring intently at the back of his head.
Once discovered, Ford reportedly pointed at Isaac’s hair and said, “wig.” When Isaac asked what he meant, Ford answered, “You’re wearing a wig.” After Isaac assured the Han Solo actor that it was his real hair, Ford looked at him with what Isaac called a mixture of “disdain and also impressed.” You can watch the interview below.
In spite of the accusations, Isaac apparently asked Harrison Ford, a real-life pilot, for his advice on portraying a pilot in Star Wars. Ford’s response sounds about as Harrison Ford as you get. Ford reportedly answered, “It’s fake, and it’s in space.” It’s the kind of wisdom you just wish you could package and give to everyone.
