"I'm trying to make him what we love him to be," Favreau said of Ford's character while talking recently to MTV News. "Think about him whether it was 'American Graffiti,' Han Solo, 'Indiana Jones,' or 'Blade Runner.' He's sort of that edgy, likeable but not likeable guy. I don't like the cuddly Harrison Ford. I don't like the sensitive, thoughtful Harrison Ford."

"I like the Harrison Ford where you don't know if he's going to kick your ass or if he's going to buy a drink and he's clearly getting tired of hearing you talk," the director said. "That's the Harrison Ford I like. The one who's heard enough from you. That's the Harrison Ford I like."






"It's funny. It's great. It's been a great experience to be in a movie that is so monstrously huge," the actress told MTV when asked about the movies recent success before it's release in the US tomorrow. "To have teenage boys know who I am is fun!"

"This movie made $100 million in its first weekend and I think my biggest movie had been 'Shakespeare in Love,' which made $100 million in its whole theatrical run — it was kind of amazing to see," she said. "How does a movie make $100 million in one weekend? So, it was fun to be a part of that."

Iron Man 2 is out now and Cowboys and Aliens will be released on July 29, 2011!
