Hollywood legend [Harrison Ford](http://time.com/4869807/harrison-ford-reboot-franchises-comic-con-san-diego/) has been in his fair share of action movies — and executed his fair share of stunts. But there’s one on-set anecdote, from the upcoming [_Blade Runner 2049_](http://time.com/4867732/blade-runner-2049-footage-comic-con-san-diego/) starring Ryan Gosling, that suggests a misstep in his work. In [an interview with _GQ_](https://www.gq.com/story/harrison-ford-gq-cover-story-2017), Ford shared his side of the story.

“I punched [Ryan Gosling](http://time.com/4710893/ryan-gosling-on-oscars-mixup/) in the face,” he explained of the stunt snafu. “Ryan Gosling’s face was where it should not have been.” He went on to tell the interviewer:

“His job was to be out of the range of the punch. My job was also to make sure that I pulled the punch. But we were moving, and the camera was moving, so I had to be aware of the angle to the camera to make the punch look good. You know, I threw about a hundred punches in the shooting of it, and I only hit him _once._” Ford also suggested that Gosling should be grateful it only happened once. Plus, he brought Gosling a glass of scotch afterwards to numb the pain — not the whole bottle, though. “You know, I figured one drink would fix it,” he joked.

He further noted that Gosling, who famously began in showbiz as a kid with Disney’s [Mouseketeer](http://time.com/4933690/disney-mickey-mouse-club-reboot/) program, was no slouch on set. “I like him a lot. He’s a smart guy… He knows what he’s doing.” Looks like the punch was definitely unintentional after all.

_Blade Runner 2049,_ the followup to Ford’s 1982 sci-fi classic from director Ridley Scott, is out Oct. 6.


## Transcript

[00:05] [ SOUND ] [ MUSIC ] I had your job
[00:11] once. [ SOUND ] I was good at
[00:19] it. I know. What
[00:25] do you
[00:35] want? I want to ask you some questions.
[00:39] [ SOUND ]
[00:43] The story, the themes, the
[00:48] stunning visual environments, it was a pleasure
[00:52] getting back to the world of Bladerunner again. Where
[00:53] are we going? Home. [ MUSIC ]
[01:13] When I directed the original Blade Runner 35 years
[01:15] ago, I Could never have imagined how iconic it
[01:19] would still be. I have massive respect for the world
[01:23] that Ridley Scott created. Blade Runner revolutionized
[01:27] the way we view science fiction. When I heard
[01:31] that Ridley was continuing the narrative, I was already
[01:34] invested. I already wanted to know what happen Next.
[01:38] I think it's kind of fun playing a character 30 years
[01:41] later. Trying on old clothes. I'm happy they still fit.
[01:43] [ LAUGH ] [ INAUDIBLE ], please. Action. From
[01:53] the cinematography to the script. To working with
[01:57] Denny and Ridley, Roger Harrison and Ryan. I
[02:01] just feel really lucky just to be on the team. [ MUSIC ]
[02:09] I never felt much pressure on my shoulders thinking
[02:12] that Ridley Scott will see this movie. I've never Worked
[02:16] on a film with so many sets and different lighting
[02:18] patterns. Technically, it's quite [ LAUGH ] challenging.
[02:21] [ SOUND ] They created this incredible world
[02:26] where there was the living, breathing universe.
[02:30] Designing this was like walking on a knife's edge.
[02:32] Lighting the line between the original film and what
[02:35] we're doing now.
[02:38] It's not just a replica of the first film. We're marrying
[02:41] the familiar with the slightly divergent, in order to give
[02:44] ourselves an identity. We're trying to keep the visual
[02:48] effects very reality based and grounded. People
[02:50] should look at it, go, wow, this is a beautiful shot. How
[02:52] did they get it? [ SOUND ] [ MUSIC ] I always told you,
[02:52] you're special. [ MUSIC ] Your story isn't over
[03:06] yet. [ MUSIC ] The
[03:13] first move was always meant to be a stand alone film
[03:15] but there's always more to tell then the two hours
[03:15] would allow. We are making something special.
[03:17] [ MUSIC ]
[03:20] It
[03:22] feels like a very grounded, realistic extension of the
[03:25] original. It's good to be home again. Who'd
[03:29] you bring? No one. They know you're here. [ SOUND ]
[03:30] This is impossible.
[03:41] [ MUSIC ]
