[Acknowledging that George Lucas and Steven Spielberg originally wanted another actor to play Indiana Jones]: "My playing Indy was mentioned to me about only six weeks before shooting started, but being second choice wasn`t at all offensive. I would alway...
Harrison Ford
[on his first lunch meeting with George Lucas]: I liked him. The conversation was divided culturally by 8,000 miles and 30 years; but I think we might understand each other if I can get past his intensity.
Alec Guinness
The person I enjoy working for more than anyone else is George Lucas. He`s the best boss I ever had because he`s the most talented boss I ever had.
Steven Spielberg
It`s a little-known fact, but I wanted Han Solo to die at the end of Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983). I thought it would give more weight and resonance. But George Lucas wasn`t sympathetic. He didn`t want me killed by those teddy bear gu...
Harrison Ford
[Talking about George Lucas]: "I think George likes people. I think George is a kind, warm hearted person, but he can be a little impatient with the nature of acting, the need to work till you find something. He`s like `It`s right there, it`s right there,...
Harrison Ford
[On how much he disliked working on Star Wars (1977) and his attempts to encourage George Lucas to kill off Obi-Wan Kenobi]: And he agreed with me. What I didn`t tell him was that I just couldn`t go on speaking those bloody awful, banal lines. I`d had eno...
Alec Guinness
I think that George Lucas` `Star Wars` films are fantastic. What he`s done, which I admire, is he has taken all the money and profit from those films and poured it into developing digital sound and surround sound, which we are using today. He got ILM star...
Peter Jackson
I like George Lucas and Tim Burton because there`s no messing about. No 100 takes of me walking through a door. They know what they want and when they get it, we move on. Naming no names but, with some directors, it`s take after take and take 22 is the ex...
Ewan McGregor
[while considering doing Star Wars (1977)]: Science fiction - which gives me pause - but it is to be directed by George Lucas, who did American Graffiti (1973), which makes me think I should. Big part. Fairytale rubbish, but could be interesting.
Alec Guinness
I was working on The Lost Boys (1987) when I smoked my first joint. But a year before that, I was starting to drink beer on the set of the film Lucas (1986). I lived in Los Angeles in the `80s, which was not the best place to be. I did cocaine for about a...
Corey Haim
(on future use of CGI in his films) "Nooo! Leave that to George Lucas, he` s really mastered the CGI acting. That scares me! I hate it! Everybody is so pleased and excited by it. Animation is animation. Animation is great. But it`s when you`re now taking ...
Terry Gilliam
I prefer to keep my hair short - very short. I also like having a good amount of facial hair. But unfortunately, Lucas cannot have a beard. At the end of the season, hacking off the hair is my ritual. It all goes! - On why he always looks so different whe...
Chad Murray
On Friday Night Lights: "I grew up on a farm, and Lucas in the jungles of Alabama, so I think we adapted very well. It`s just a lot that these guys are holding on their shoulders at such a young age. There`s a lot they`re dealing with, the town pressure o...
Garrett Hedlund
[Talking about George Lucas]: "He doesn`t really understand the nature of acting. He`s like `It`s right there, it`s right there. I wrote it, it`s there, just do it.` But you can`t just do it that easily."
Harrison Ford
The problem was, Lucas was going through a whole series of relationships with women because I had a feeling that women readers like to read about romantic involvements ... along with the thriller aspects of the books. [But] if you introduce a new female c...
John Sandford
Peter Lucas and I live in Durham but spend a great of time in North Wales, where we have a cottage in the mountains, and in Vermont, USA, with my sister - who is a children`s writer married to a poet.
Al Ansley
My other brother, the Lord Lucas, who was heir to my father`s estate, and as it were the father to take care of us all, is not less valiant than they were, although his skill in the discipline of war was not so much, not being bred therein.
Aly Byorick
Lucas is in his first full year on the mat. He came from the football team. He`s been on a bit of a down streak, but I think he will have a little more success in the Division III postseason tournament.
Mike Massey
I worked with people I admire; Josh Lucas, who I`d worked with many many years ago on a pilot called The Class of 61 and Kurt Russell, and so there were a variety of different people that I enjoyed working with.
Andre Braugher
I like Soderbergh, Spielberg, Lucas. There`s a lot of talented guys out there obviously, and if you`re a fan of films, you have to look at that stuff and learn from them.
David Ellis
George Lucas was casting about and had heard favourable things about my work in Clockwork Orange and asked me to come in, which of course I did even though no one knew what the film was about!
David Prowse
George Lucas wanted this moving camera for all of the photography in Star Wars. He was willing to take a risk with the concepts that I advanced with regard to ways for doing that.
