What Happened
During an Apple FYC Event moderated by Variety's Emily Longeretta, Harrison Ford discussed his role in the Apple TV+ series 'Shrinking'. Ford revealed he was unaware that two of his character's actions in Season 3 were references to his iconic Indiana Jones films. In one scene, his character hummed 'The Raiders March', the Indiana Jones theme. Ford stated he did not realize the melody he was mouthing was from 'Indiana Jones', noting the tune was playing during a recent colonoscopy he underwent. In the season finale, his character mutters the phrase 'choose wisely'. Fellow cast member Michael Urie informed Ford during the panel that this line is from 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'. Show co-creator Bill Lawrence revealed a third, deliberate reference: a 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' prop appears in the background of a scene.
