Harrison Ford Spoke About His 'Shrinking' Character
In an August 2025 interview on Wild Card with Rachel Martin, Ford discussed playing Dr. Rhoades on Shrinking, which premiered in 2023. He said that while he doesn't "agree with everything that comes out of his mouth," he has a similar disposition to his Shrinking character. In addition, he didn't want to act against his type while playing Dr. Rhoades.
While speaking toPeople in December 2024, Ford said he wanted to be respectful with how he portrays Dr. Rhoades amid his Parkinson's experience.
"There are people that absorb these kinds of experiences with grace and courage and a little bit of wisdom," said the Star Wars actor to the publication. "It's just to say that this is a person particularly equipped to communicate what it's like, and that is something that I feel that is worth sharing with our audience. I feel like I'm telling a story. The story I'm telling is a story that I know, and so I can just simply feel it.”
