Happy birthday, HarrisonFord! Here’s a look back at some of his leading roles in several genres

Ford almost didn’t land his most iconic role. Director George Lucas worked with a fresh-faced Ford in “American Graffiti” where he played a cocky teenager in the carpenter-turned-actor’s first major movie role in 1973. Lucas wanted new actors for his space odyssey and merely brought Ford in to read lines with other potential cast members during the audition process. He did so well, he won the part and the rest is movie history.

Like Ford, Norman Spencer is used to being seen as the good guy and hero so his deception in the thriller makes his fall from grace all the more entertaining. It’s a treat to see him go dark in the pulpy box office hit.Considered a sci-fi noir masterpiece, 1982’s “Blade Runner” sees Ford as jaded replicant hunter Rick Deckard. Emotionally drained, morally ambiguous Ford’s dramatic and weighty turn symbolizes everything about what it means to be human in a world full of androids.
