A sly reference in a Marvel Star Wars comic has officially made Indiana Jones part of the franchise's canon, paying homage to Harrison Ford’s two most iconic and beloved roles. Interestingly, the Indy reference is included in a story set in an era of the Star Wars timeline well before Han Solo's lifetime.

An actor originally meant to play the part of an iconic movie character before a scheduling conflict meant the role went to Harrison Ford

“S**t happens,” said Ford. “I was really the one who felt there was another story to tell. When [Indy] had suffered the consequences of the life that he had to live, I wanted one more chance to pick him up and shake the dust off his ass and stick him out there, bereft of some of his vigor, to see what happened.”
