Harrison Ford Reportedly ‘Recovering Remarkably’ From Plane Crash

According to Indiana Jones producer Frank Marshall, Harrison Ford is recuperating well after being in a plane crash last month and has been released from UCLA Medical Center.

“Harrison is at home (in Los Angeles) and he’s up and about,” Marshall told Variety. “I talked to him yesterday and he’s doing really well. He’s pretty banged up, but he’s recovering remarkably. He wants to play tennis.”

On March 5, Ford suffered multiple injuries, including a large laceration on his scalp and broken bones, when the small vintage plane he was flying crash landed onto Penmar Golf Course in Santa Monica, California shortly after taking off at Santa Monica Airport. Ford, who has been flying planes for many years, was making an emergency landing after his engine began malfunctioning and managed to not hurt anyone else in the crash.

“That’s the thing you would expect him to do in a movie, but he did it in real life!” Marshall added. “He’s a really good pilot. I’ve talked to a lot of pilots who said that was a hell of a landing and he did everything correct in that situation. He made an incredible landing, to his credit. He is, after all, Indiana Jones.”

Ford can next be seen on the big screen later this month in The Age of Adaline. He will also star in Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens which hits theaters at the end of the year.
