He earned his status as a Hollywood heartthrob with his work in popular franchises like Star Wars and Indiana Jones.
And Harrison Ford proved he’s still every inch the hunk at 82 as he stripped off for a mini series of adverts for Glenmorangie whisky on Wednesday.
The acclaimed actor has praised the ‘unpretentious and amusing’ commercials, which offer a glimpse into the production Glenmorangie’s original 12 Years Old and The Infinita 18 Years Old at their home in Tain, Highlands.
In the first clip, Harrison was shown receiving the campaign offer and preparing to travel up north.
The actor, set to star in Captain America: Brave New World, then stripped off in the bathtub while speaking on the phone, saying that he’s off to Scotland.
It then cut to a flashback where he was seen meditating on the bed in tiny bright green shorts before a jump cut showed him outside on the lawn of a castle.

Back on a call, he said he ‘wouldn’t be doing ‘the action man s**t that they want, but I will sit by the fire and drink amazing, smooth Glenmorangie single malt whisky.’
The actor then did exactly that as he pulled out a piece of paper that detailed the concept of the ad.
‘Harrison Ford,’ he read, ‘Top of the mountain. Bagpipe players. Never in a million years,’ before crumbling the paper and tossing it in the fire.
A quick cut then showed Harrison in a stylish Scottish kilt designed by streetwear brand Palace as he walked down a mountain while bagpipe players performed around him.
The episodic films, Once Upon a Time in Scotland, are directed by actor and film-maker Joel Edgerton.
They were described by the whisky firm as celebrating ‘the significance of its home, its craftsmanship and the people that make its award-winning whiskies.’
With 12 episodes in total, six are now available to view on the brand’s YouTube and website, with the rest releasing throughout the year.
Speaking about his involvement in the campaign, Harrison said: ‘I loved working with the team at the distillery – they were all great. The whole process of filming was full of unanticipated joys, little unexpected moments.

‘It’s a tribute to Glenmorangie’s sensibilities that they let us be less than totally serious.
‘I think what Joel has produced has a certain charm to it, because it’s unpretentious and just amusing.’
The series also features neighboring landmarks Loch Glᴀss and Ardross Castle – famed as the location for The Traitors TV show – as well as staff at the distillery, which has produced whisky for 180 years.

Caspar MacRae, president and chief executive of the Glenmorangie Company, said: ‘Harrison Ford is the real deal: a true global icon, and a genuine whisky lover.
‘It was a dream come true to collaborate on this campaign, and welcome him to our home in the Highlands to discover more about Glenmorangie.
‘He is someone who has honed his craft over decades, which gives him a real appreciation for the dedication and skill of our distillery team.
‘Like us, he’s not afraid to laugh at himself – and I think Joel has perfectly captured his authentic warmth, alongside his roguish sense of humor.

‘We hope whisky lovers around the world will enjoy exploring the episodes, and learning more about the real people and places behind our whiskies, through Harrison’s eyes.’
Director Joel Edgerton said: ‘I’ve spent my whole life watching commercials that follow an expected format and so I really like it when things are a little disruptive, fun, and irreverent.
‘It was nice that we got a chance within the very traditional industry of whisky to get behind the scenes, to subvert the seriousness that often goes into an advertising campaign and have fun with that.
‘I hope that people get to see the short film and the full-length episodes – and enjoy them and share them around.’
