When asked about what it was like to work on this project, he said,

“Uh… Yeah. I mean, there are tough days and easy days and fun days and all kinds of days. It’s a tough schedule and, yeah, it’s fun. But it’s not a walk in the park. It’s not fun fun. It’s work.”

The eighty-year-old actors talked about how working on this project can be fun at times, but also challenging. The movie has quite a comprehensive schedule which can be difficult at times, but it is expected as they are working. Kevin Feige also talked about how Ford has been working ridiculously hard for the project, which is something his character does as well.
