Does Harry get his chopper out in The Expandables 3?

He's looking much more Han these days, which is good. And Chewie's looking in shape too, judging from the above pic.

They make it sound more serious here, but then it is the Daily Mirror:

Harrison Ford crushed on Star Wars set: Han Solo star airlifted to hospital

Jun 12, 2014 19:44
By Mark Jefferies


The 71-year-old Hollywood star was at Pinewood studios in Buckinghamshire when a hydraulic door fell down and hit him as he began work on Star Wars: Episode VII.

Star Wars actor Harrison Ford was airlifted to hospital today after he was crushed on the set of the new movie.

The 71-year-old Hollywood star was at Pinewood studios in Buckinghamshire when a hydraulic door fell down and hit him as he began work on Star Wars: Episode VII.

The Han Solo actor, who also played Indiana Jones, fell to the ground in agony and after medics assessed him on the M Stage at the studios close to spaceship the Millennium Falcon, he was taken by stretcher onto a helicopter for further treatment.

Ford was taken by air ambulance to the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford with a suspected fracture in his ankle. It is understood he has no major chest injuries but is awaiting results of further tests.

The NHS hospital has a trauma unit that specialises in fracture clinics with dedicated and purpose-designed buildings.

The building also provides facilities for radiological investigation and therapy treatment for all trauma patients.

Tonight it was unclear how long he will be unable to film for, but his filming schedule will be ripped up and there will be concerns from some fans this could delay the movie.

The set of Stars Wars will also be re-checked for safety.

A spokesman for Thames Valley Police said: ?We were called to Pinewood studios at 5.05pm after reports of a 71-year-old man being injured by a garage door.?

The Health And Safety Executive has launched an investigation into the incident.

An HSE spokesperson said: ?We have been made aware of an incident at Pinewood studios and are making initial enquiries.?

Ford could be entitled to claim money on the film?s insurance if the door was found to be at fault.

A spokesman for the film said: ?Harrison Ford sustained an ankle injury during filming today on the set of Star Wars: Episode VII. He was taken to a local hospital and is receiving care. Shooting will continue as planned while he recuperates.?

The spokesman also insisted he did not have an injury to his chest.

...

Ford has been lined up for more stunts with talks of a Fifth Indiana Jones movie, although critics say he is now too old for the character.

But the action movie star said he would play Indiana Jones once again ?in a New York minute?.

He told Graham Norton last year: ?I don?t think there is any barrier to Indiana Jones being an old fart,? he said.

?I?m old enough that we don?t need [Sean] Connery anymore ? I?m old enough to play my own father.?

Get well soon Harrison hope its not too serious but being airlifted to hospital for ankle damage sounds a little excessive we are not being told the whole truth here IMO :(

Also Harrison was spotted at dinner with Ridley Scott on Tuesday evening in London so it sounds like he maybe doing Blade Runner 2 as well otherwise he would not have had dinner to turn Ridley down it would have been a phone call.

Don't lets pretend that we're entitled to the whole truth, in any real way.

Even if they didn't have the warmest of relationships, they produced a decent piece of work the first time around. I think he owed him a meal with a sequel on the table, whether the answer was yes or no.

Depends on the level of fracture. If he doesn't require surgery, he shouldn't be down that long. They could put him in a boot and just shoot from the knees up as much as possible.

Don't know how old you are, Grizzlor, but at Ford's age, any injury (with the word "broken" in it) will take a while to heal.

Unfortunately it sounds like Harrison has more than an ankle injury...

Please be dead. Please be dead. Please be dead. Please... damnit!


Well, I guess the lads at the Fireman's Fund are at least happy about that fact.


Guess what Ford's not going to be doing for a while?
