![]() Han Solo was the king of cool throughout the Star Wars series. Maybe only Lando Calrissian could rival his level of charm and charisma. Now we know why.... Harrisson Ford, who played Han Solo, liked to smoke weed! And actually, more than that, rumor has it that he was actually the dude you went to back before dispos. He was referred to as a Hollywood dealer back before his big break. Harrisson had been living and working in the Hollywood area for about 10 years before his breakthrough with American Graffitti and Star Wars. He auditioned for what he could, and made ends meet with odd jobs, including carpenting, but maybe that didn’t always make ends meet. Michelle Phillips, from the band the Mamas and the Papas, said that when she first saw Star Wars, she did a double-take and shouted, "That's my pot dealer!" She later explained that she "didn't even know Harrison was an actor.” Supposedly he also supplied the Doors with weed. His Star Wars love, Leia, played by Carrie Fisher, documented his love of cannabis in her autobiography, The Princess Diarist. Carrie wrote about the her short fling with Harrisson while filming the first Star Wars. Carrie said Harrisson’s weed had a “brutal strength,” and that it made her "forget most of 1976.” Carrie said the king of cool would smoke a large joint as he was driven daily to the set. She also said Harrisson once even came up with the ingenuous solution of heating up a saucepan to get high one day when he ran out of papers. As for later years, Harrisson Ford kept things pretty quiet publicly with marijuana. But, there were some rumors that as recently as the fourth Indiana Jones movie, that he would blaze up with co-star and screen son Shia LaBeouf. Allegedly, the two of them used Harrisson’s trailer to smoke between takes, and even created code names for being high. Man I wish I knew what those were!
