"When the scripts were coming, I was struck by how many major moments in my character's life had a substantial and not coincidental shadow of the same things in my life," Ford said during an interview with People in 2023.
Dame Helen Mirren has reflected on her mortality, stating the “finality of life” has recently become “more real” to her.
Ford, 80, suffered critical injuries including a large laceration on his scalp as well as broken bones, leading him to remain hospitalized for almost a month after he was forced to make an emergency landing in his World War II vintage plane in southern California.
Silent Witness star Mirren, whose career has spanned 60 years to date, added: “Hopefully that informs your acting because what are you as an actor except a reflection of life around you.”.
The British Oscar winner plays Irish immigrant Cara Dutton, wife of Ford’s rancher Jacob Dutton, in the Prohibition era-set series.
