He not only has the swagger and laid back nature of Ford but he has the infinite likability as well. I would have a beer with this dude in a galaxy far, far away...
Glide On, Did you see this movie Age of Adaline starring Blake Lively? Ingruber was her love interest, when they were young. A mature Harrison Ford plays the long lost love...later in the movie. Click on this link and have a look, this guy is awesome. Cheers.. m.ruclips.net/video/vwLv993khfI/видео.html
Anyone can be an actor though. He seems good enough to me. I don't think I'll be able to watch the movie without thinking how much he doesn't look like him.
Nathan Broke Disney just wants too Make a Walgreens 2 AAAAAAA!! AAAAAAAAAAA!!! AAAAAAA!! AAAAAAAA!! Btw I’m screaming of frustration I just don’t understand why didn’t they cast him
ᚹᚫᚱᛞᛖᚾ is that really the rumor? They got 90% done with shooting and you're telling me a casting choice that far down the line got them fired? I don't think so....but I'd love to see these rumors.
After watching the Han Solo trailer, I'm saying to myself how in the world was Anthony Ingruber not cast as Han Solo?! He's perfect for that role. He could be Harrison Ford's son.
Dude this is fatal af. He looks, sounds, and performs like muhfukkin harrison ford. Disney you retards, you could’ve saved much of the hate for the solo movie by casting this guy instead but NOPE.
They didn't hire him because they didn't want someone to impersonate Harrison Ford... they wanted someone to PLAY Han Solo. And this guy just doesn't have the actors chops or gravitas to do that.
And the worst part, Disney had him.. they HAD HIM.. he went out for the role of Han Solo and it was so obvious they DIDN'T pick him -_- Why? Cause he's who the fans wanted and they stopped caring about that a long time ago. And also to @Oddball_EB he'd have made it his own. And if you think Anthony Ingruber can't act you really should watch his Joker performance. He didn't do a Mark Hamill impersonation, he took all that other Jokers have done and made it his own and is one of the brightest spots of the series. So yeah he definitely has the 'gravitas'. He'd have done the same with Han Solo.
+Dave Lee Down Under Thats just bullshit people like to repeat. Just the way Anthony stands and smiles, he exudes charisma. A great impressionist, is a great actor. The method is the same, it's all about thinking like your subject.
After watching the new Han Solo trailer, they really fucked up by not picking Ingruber.....it comes across as a totally different character or a fan trailer.
yeah - eirenreich seems like a fine actor, he was just not right for the role. it's insane, the amount of genuine charisma ingruber would've brought to the role would've been off the charts. it would've made the difference from mediocre film to decent film.
Alden isn't Ford, and everyone knows it, and that's exactly how they're going to play it. The Solo movie needs someone who can be their own Han while still staying true to who Han is at his core, not someone who comes off as trying too hard to be like Ford. Anthony is a good Ford impersonator, but impersonating and acting is 2 different things. Here he comes off as trying too hard to be like Ford.
The guys got a high pitched annoying voice, he delivers his lines trying to sound like a bad ass but isn't, is too short and just lacks that Han Solo charm. Anthony could have done it without even trying
Technically you don't get ask to play the role you have to pass to be selected, even if they are already professional actors, if the studio wants the role to be auditioned then they have to audition, he may have the looks and voice but what about the mannerism? The behavior or the actions of han solo? Acting takes a lot of training and they needed an actor who can immediately start off when the filming kicks off.
I have no idea why they passed on this guy. I don't get it. Saw his impression of Ford during the casting and thought they got really lucky that there's someone out there that can actually make the movie work. They passed. Now the one they did choose will suffer from it.
so give him some acting classes we've seen far worse acting in major star wars movies. If it at least feels like han solo it would be better then a professional actor that doesn't look like han and doesn't sound like han. It'd just be an actor pretending to be han solo, it'd not feel genuine.
Well gifted and gifted. I'd at least give it a try with the guy. You just assume you couldn't possibly get a good perfomrance out of the guy, well it's very presumtious and we won't ever know since no one is ready to take risks. Harrison wasn't an actor either when he started out, sometimes you need to gamble a little. With a guy this close to the original i'd at least do a bit of gambling like maybe do two scenes with him and if you could get good performance out of him for those two scene's then maybe you could do it for an entire movie. I know what bad acting looks like and I suppose it kinda depends on how the movie is written. I could still see him as a young han solo though. I know you don't agree with me but hey that's okay.
I think it depends a lot on the director also, like a director can be able to notice tiny details like that and as you said it was just short flashback clips so they probably didn't put much empathasis on making those scene's 100% genuine as such scenes for the most part usually only have to be passable when you are filming with completely different actors. Then again it depends a lot on how the movie is written I could imagine him playing a young han solo that is not yet a smuggler but just has to turn into the smuggler and thus him not being 100% the bad ass and maybe even a bit nervous straight from the start is something you could play on and you could work it up. Kinda like in taxi driver when robert deniro starts off as a bit of a insecure guy and changes as the movie progresses. Most great actors didn't start off great right from the start like Jack Nicholson for example, if you watch him early in his career you'd have no clue what was awaiting in the future. That's why I say you should sometimes take gambles and attempt to bring out good performances out of inexperienced actors especially if you see something in there that might actually fit. I get that you want something new but the problem with that is that the han solo from what I can read is supposed to be the same han solo we see in the original films. Meaning there is a need for the actor to be as close to the original role as possible in order to be believable. Evan Macgregor is a good example of an actor that actually worked in his role as obi-wan. I could totally believe that he turns into old ben kenobi later on. That's the problem unless you're doing a reboot the actor you choose gotta be able live up to the role and it can't be too much different cause they are supposed to be the exact same character. Harrison Ford is always gonna be han solo and anyone else doing the role is always gonna feel like it's just an actor pretending to be han solo no matter who you pick. So I don't think my idea of making a somewhat insecure solo at first is that bad.
Lucasfilm REALLY messed up not casting Anthony Ingruber to play Han Solo. Rumor has it they weren't happy with the performance they got from Alden Ehrenreich and are reshooting many of his scenes. Regardless of his audition, Disney could have hired an acting coach for Anthony and he would have totally transformed into a young Harrison Ford. Now we're stuck with an actor who looks and sounds NOTHING like Han Solo in a movie that nobody even wanted. At least Anthony would have given an amazing Ford impression that may have been the best excuse there was to see this movie in the first place. Disney/Lucasfilm seems to have their head pretty far up their own asses when it comes to every Star Wars decision.
If you knew that the guy who got casted in the Han Solo film was extremely recommended by Spielberg, they are friends, they had auditions for 100 actors and you really think the guy they picked was the best option? Influence and connections gets you roles
+Joshua Belmont Reese Now the movie is tanking; that new guy who is Solo is getting the worse end of it all too. Disney screwed up with their casting when they had this guy all along.
Alan Perez Alden isn't a bad actor by any means but he wasn't the right one to play a young han solo I hope he dosen't get the same Treatment that hayden got in the prequels because of it
To the folks saying he's not a great actor so he couldn't carry a whole Han movie: Lucasfilm based an entire trilogy around Hayden Christensen, and they had to hire an acting coach for Alden Ehrenreich like 2/3rds of the way through 'Solo' production.
dlein93 Tbh the prequels weren't Hayden's fault. The scripts and lines were all pretty awful, nobody could make that stuff work. Plus Hayden outside of Star Wars had a pretty decent career and acted fine. He's not bad at all.
Grim Fandango was badly directed by old George. Directing his actors isn't that much his strong point. He knows story, he knows characters (not dialogue though) and he knows world building
Disney keeps making the excuse they didn't want a Harrison Ford impersonator on screen for two hours. However this scene proves Anthoney isn't impersonating Ford. He is acting and it isn't forced. He comes off natural as a young Harrison Ford without even trying.
@@celticgibson they desperately tried to get the other guy to nail down Harrison Ford's mannerisms and it caused people to turn on the film before it came out. Personally I think Anthony could've saved the studio a lot of money and bad press
Why did they cast someone Spielberg found at a bat mitzvah instead of the guy who looks just like Harrison Ford, sounds just like him, did a perfect impression of Han, and even played a younger version of Harrison's character in a movie? Anthony Ingruber would have been perf but nooo
Cowabunga Carl 555 yeah but their roles were for a movie that George Lucas wasn’t sure would hold up. Now, with 9 movies and two TV shows, they’re more prone to hiring people with experience, something Ingruber certainly does not have
@@pabloalex2755 so basically he is pretty much on par with most Hollywood actors I mean most actors in Hollywood are garbage but they still get cast in movies and TV.
It's comical how Disney / Kathleen Kennedy didn't hire this guy to play Solo. He looks and sounds exactly like a young Harrison Ford. Instead we got this poor guy who will be slagged for the next 30 years because he can't act and looks/sounds nothing like Solo. I mean... Disney... C'mon.
Pablo Alex, stop blowing smoke out of your arse. You don't like him. Fine. We get it. But stop slagging the guy in such outlandish and ridiculous terms. You are just making a fool of yourself.
It's funny. The guy that Disney eventually picked looks more like a young Dennis Quaid than Harrison Ford. Even sounds like him. It's almost like a big What If?
#IngruberForSolo How can they consider any of the onther ones on the "finalist list". they're loike "oh he was successful with this movie. no chance anybody cares he is different in any way from the character and actor"
It does feel like they were pushing hard for him to do his Ford impression rather than play a character. His natural voice is similar to Ford's so it probably would have worked more if he just used his own voice.
WTF?!!!, This guy played a young Harrison Ford perfectly but wasn’t cast as Han Solo in the new film?!!, Disney must be tripping balls harder than a soccer ball player on drugs
#IngruberForSolo I have faith he'll be the new Han Solo, Disney needs to come to their senses and know what the fans want, and this guy IS the perfect actor to portray a young Han Solo.
Oddball_E8 1. The acting coach was brought in late in production, which is rare, in addition to all the production turmoil the movie went through. 2. Well I mean, that’s your opinion. It may also depend on your expectations.
Came here after watching the teaser trailer and it's clear Anthony Ingruber would have been the perfect choice for a young Han Solo instead of Alden. With respects to Alden, he's simply no Harrison Ford impersonator, and that's key to playing Han Solo.
RENZ No..... good acting is not impersonating. It’s good for little tidbits like this movie or for RUclips vids but impersonating is not gonna carry a movie
Sounds like him, looks like him, ACTUALLY PLAYED HIM IN A MOVIE and doesn't get cast as Han Solo in the movie? what the hell is wrong with you f Disney?
His voice is identical to that of Ford in the 80s! It’s pathetic Disney didn’t cast him as young Han Solo, he’d also be perfect as young Indy for some prequel films.
@@MaximumCarne No, they didn't. Look at Ingruber's own videos from many years ago made in his home bedroom impersonating Ford as Solo and Indy. There's no dubbing, that's him speaking. The guy is impressive and Disney dropped the ball, case closed.
For the people asking why this guy didn't get the role over the one they picked, Steven Spielberg is close friends with the new Han solo actor, he had recommendations from him, think about it the previous directors said they had auditions for more than 100 actors and the one they chose was the first one who auditioned, why was he the first one who auditioned? Don't be stupid you know why.
I see all this talk about Ingruber being an impressionist and not an actor. That would be true if all he had done was impressions on RUclips, but there is a filmography. 2008 he played an air force pilot in a short, he played an extra (uncredited) in Avatar in 2009, voice work in 2009 in Reminiscence, in 2010 played in the movie Avalon High as Sean, short film voice acting in Last Minute in 2010, played Joe the The Force in 2012, played young William Jones in 2015 in the Age of Adaline, played in the short film, Eyes Open Nevermore in 2015, also in Sinceley, Batman as Batman AND Joker, narrated How Star Wars Fans Think in 2015 as the voice of Han Solo, voiced a character in 2015 in Tempus Box and played in 2017 short film, 2017 The Monster. He's played in TV since 2006, played James Bond in 2012 How It Should Have Ended, two episodes of Skyrim at the Movies as Tony Stark AND Thor, played voice characters in video games since 2014. He's been acting since 2006 in almost every media you can imagine. At what point does Anthony Ingruber BECOME an actor. He IS an actor and has been cast as such since 2006. He has nothing to prove to anyone here. Based on his experience before and after Solo, yes, he should have been cast as the young Han Solo in the movie, Solo. Other machinations were in play so that no matter how good he was or was not for the role, his acting chops had no bearing on the fact he didn't get the role. He didn't get the role because someone else wanted Alden to get the role. It's as simple as that. If that person had not been involved, I could see Anthony getting the role. I think we would have had a much better film if he had. A little bit of research before making comments might work to everyone's advantage, yes?
Guys, it’s over for him as Han Solo BUT, seeing as Harrison Ford is done with Indiana Jones, they could always just reboot it with Anthony Ingruber and just tell new stories and still set them all in the 30s & 40s.
@@dallesamllhals9161 Yes, and that’s another thing to consider. I bet there are a bunch of great Indiana Jones stories/scripts out there. We just need an exec who’s brave enough to not ruin it with DEI and wokeness.
This is the first time I've seen Ingruber and Jesus Christ!! If only they had cast him in Solo, Disney would have had the biggest Star Wars hit. They really are fucking hack muppets for letting this guy go by!! I thought Ford was dubbing his voice he was so spot on!!!!
He is so a young Han Solo, he looks just like him and he sounds so much like him too, hes proved hes got acting chops. But I bet the studio will just cast some big, popular actor whos flavor or the month, I keep hearing about that Tavon or Taron something guy from that Eddie the Eagle movie, like hes been considered or auditioned for the Iconic role, and Disney will only be interested in whoever is popular amongst the mainstream, they wont care if he looks or sounds like him, they wont care about that.
1:03 "You're Welcome" ~ that deep drawl voice along with those systematic head moves when he says this just gets me every single time it's just absolutely fabulous just absolutely love this whole movie just magic !
Anthony's uncanny resemblance to Harrison Ford alone would have made SOLO a box office smash! This proves that the people now running LUCASFILMS are out of their minds.
I’m not even joking when he first started talking I thought this was a weird edit where Harrison fords voice was out over the younger version as like a flash back... man I wish he were cast for the Han Solo film
I wonder if that wasn't just another bad Kathleen Kennedy / Ryon Johnston MISTAKE. The fans wanted Ingruber so their immediate instincts were .... DO THE OPPOSITE!!!! :(
The first time I saw this, I thought this was a CGI Harrison Ford. I remember thinking, how the hell were they able to make Harrison look this young and have it look this natural? When I saw that it was another actor in the credits, I immediately looked this young man up. Considering the fact that they had to hire an acting coach for Alden, they should have hired this guy and had an acting coach work with him instead. I remember when Spielberg tried to force Haley Joel Osment on J.K. Rowling and she put her foot down. J.K. knew that a good actor is required, but a part of that is the look. For all of the "impersonator" comments, this scene shows Anthony as a young Harrison Ford with original dialogue. He is not impersonating Harrison here; he "is" a believable young Harrison Ford. Disney really messed up.
How did they not pick him for Han Solo... I mean come on he looks like him, sounds like him, and he already nailed a past version Harrison Ford character in this movie.
I really don't understand why Disney couldn't have hired him.... I really can't. He auditioned on RUclips he has the looks, voice, and swagger. The only thing I can think of is that he was busy. It's crazy because doesn't he already play a young Harrison Ford here. Like it's simple math, you could have hired him.
Actually, he did audition for the roll. Disney considered him then dismissed him, saying that they wanted han solo to be an independent character, not a pseudonym for Harrison Ford. Big, BIG mistake. HUGE!
Damn man. Harrison Ford reborn. Holy shit. Why isnt he the new face of Solo? He acts more like Solo in this scene than anything Ive seen out of the new "movie".
Idk what Disney was thinking smh you have an actor that literally played young Harrison perfectly here and knew about him for the role of a Solo yet decided some other actor that looks nothing like Harrison nor acts or sounds like him to be the new Han Solo
John Gat one word. Disney. Smh the moment they said they were recasting Han and heard that they knew and auditioned this guy but chose a dude that has zero resemblance to Harrison I knew it was going to be a shit show and halfway thru production it became exactly that with them firing the directors and having to give the main actor “acting lessons” because he wasn’t doing a good enough job lmao
They cast Alden Ehrenreich because he was a Spielberg discovery, and Spielberg's the one who initially recommended him. Basically, nepotism is why Anthony didn't play Han.
He not only has the swagger and laid back nature of Ford but he has the infinite likability as well. I would have a beer with this dude in a galaxy far, far away...
I have, he was my brothers friend. He's a good chap.

Nathan Broke Disney just wants too Make a Walgreens 2 AAAAAAA!! AAAAAAAAAAA!!! AAAAAAA!! AAAAAAAA!!
Btw I’m screaming of frustration I just don’t understand why didn’t they cast him
Probably because the other guy knew someone and got the role for Solo. What a waste...
Rumour is, Kathleen forced her casting choice on the movie, and then fired the directors for opposing it.
It’s almost as though Disney are wilfully trying to destroy Star Wars and if they make a couple of bucks while they’re tearing it down, all the better

They literally needed an impersonator to play a guy from a 40 year old movie yet they decided to go with Spielberg’s chosen one instead.
@@celticgibson they desperately tried to get the other guy to nail down Harrison Ford's mannerisms and it caused people to turn on the film before it came out. Personally I think Anthony could've saved the studio a lot of money and bad press
Why did they cast someone Spielberg found at a bat mitzvah instead of the guy who looks just like Harrison Ford, sounds just like him, did a perfect impression of Han, and even played a younger version of Harrison's character in a movie? Anthony Ingruber would have been perf but nooo
He needs more experience. Experience is a critical factor.
Experience sure landed Hamill and Fisher their roles.
Cowabunga Carl 555 yeah also acting talent, which this video shows Ingruber does not have. You people are delusional.
Hamill and Fisher both had extensive TV credits before Star Wars.
Cowabunga Carl 555 yeah but their roles were for a movie that George Lucas wasn’t sure would hold up. Now, with 9 movies and two TV shows, they’re more prone to hiring people with experience, something Ingruber certainly does not have
Mad that Disney didn't pick him for Han
Dynamic Statik he’s a terrible actor
And they got Alden an acting coach so whats your point
which he didnt manage to get down.
@@pabloalex2755 so basically he is pretty much on par with most Hollywood actors I mean most actors in Hollywood are garbage but they still get cast in movies and TV.
It's comical how Disney / Kathleen Kennedy didn't hire this guy to play Solo. He looks and sounds exactly like a young Harrison Ford. Instead we got this poor guy who will be slagged for the next 30 years because he can't act and looks/sounds nothing like Solo. I mean... Disney... C'mon.
Jeffery Cuneo Alden was better choice for Solo because Ingruber is terrible actor
Pablo Alex Alden was such a better choice they hired an acting coach on set 😂
Pablo Alex, stop blowing smoke out of your arse. You don't like him. Fine. We get it.
But stop slagging the guy in such outlandish and ridiculous terms. You are just making a fool of yourself.
Kathleen Kennedy is a feminist warrior. She wants to pussify the males in the Star Wars universe and make the women strong. Hence the hiring of Alden
It's funny. The guy that Disney eventually picked looks more like a young Dennis Quaid than Harrison Ford. Even sounds like him. It's almost like a big What If?
ruclips.net/video/2htoOFx0uhw/видео.html
Ironically Dennis quaid is like a slightly younger harrison ford.
voltinator no, he looks like jack nicholson
That's exactly what I said, that the actor picked for the Solo movie looks more like Quaid...
And Quaid looks like Ford, so it all worked out.
It's almost scary oh my god, he really looks like young Harrison Ford.
THEAnnEla sounds like him too! Not to mention the demeanor! Spot on
He doesn't really look like him
Erik Nagasaki he’s the closest one. What you prefer the alden kid instead?
I never said that
Erik - he looks almost identical to him, you must be blind.
hes the perfect harrison ford clone. This guy needs to be our next nerf herder!
+Chadaface Who's scruffy lookin?
ifeelallright
Alden Ehrenreich apparently. Looks like we'll get an announcement on the Han Solo casting soon
We Want a Young INDIANA JONES!!!!!! Spielberg are you reading????
and a DNA test to show that Mutt wasn't his kid.
There already was whole tv show about the young Indy, "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles". It's even referenced in "Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull".
PrunkRockDeluxe pretty sure that wasn't about real Indie, but his dad, Indie Sr.
yes
No it was definitely about real Indy, although Dr. Jones Sr is featured in a few episodes.
#IngruberForSolo How can they consider any of the onther ones on the "finalist list". they're loike "oh he was successful with this movie. no chance anybody cares he is different in any way from the character and actor"
They really dropped the ball not casting him as Han Solo
This is the Han Solo we need but don't deserve.
It does feel like they were pushing hard for him to do his Ford impression rather than play a character. His natural voice is similar to Ford's so it probably would have worked more if he just used his own voice.
Im pretty sure thats his own voice.
+Aaron Alexander no, their was a ventriloquist in the bushes.
Lol. Thats probably it
its dubbed with Harrison Ford's.
No its not. Hes famous for being a Harrison Ford impersonator, voice and all.
Wow, Disney. Way to drop the ball on casting Solo. As IF it's not THIS guy playing Han!!
that this guy wasn't cast as young Han Solo for the SW Han Solo movie is a huge let down to me... *sigh*
WTF?!!!, This guy played a young Harrison Ford perfectly but wasn’t cast as Han Solo in the new film?!!, Disney must be tripping balls harder than a soccer ball player on drugs
This is such a beautiful movie. I love this scene.
Those first 10 seconds are a masterpiece in film making.
#IngruberForSolo
I have faith he'll be the new Han Solo, Disney needs to come to their senses and know what the fans want, and this guy IS the perfect actor to portray a young Han Solo.
R.I.P
Looks like your wish was not granted. They picked someone else.
lol
He's handsome but wooden
Lol Ingruber...? Wtf? What are you basing that on, exactly? Please, cite the EXACT moment you're referring to. Where is he wooden, and how?
And WHY IN THE FUCK wasn't this guy cast in the Han Solo movie??????
Watching this for the first 30 seconds and he just convinced me to be Harrison Ford. Disney is so stupid.
Why the crap wasn't this guy casted for Han Solo...?
Because he's not a very good actor...
Oddball_E8 he sounds good to me
and do you think the guy they hired for Han Solo is a good actor? They had to brought an acting coach for him, lol.
1: Acting coaches are not uncommon for hollywood movies.
2: I just saw Solo, and he was great.
Oddball_E8 1. The acting coach was brought in late in production, which is rare, in addition to all the production turmoil the movie went through.
2. Well I mean, that’s your opinion. It may also depend on your expectations.
He should’ve been cast in the new Han Solo movie.
that'd make too much sense, and he wasn't at Speilberg's bar mitzvah!
When he began to speak, I thought for a moment they got Ford to do voice over recording.
WHY ISN'T THIS GUY THE ONE IN THE SOLO MOVIE?!
That is what everyone thought. In fact, Anthony Ingruber did his own voice like Harrison Ford
Omg! he's the spitting image of young Ford!
Not casting him for Han Solo movie - instant karma.
Soooooo why isn't this guy in SOLO?
Gogo because he just comes across as just doing a impersonation of Harrison Ford. Not convincing.
He done others impressions and actually is quite good and convincing especially as Harrison Ford
Because of insider Hollywood politics.
The Solo we needed and everybody wanted.
Came here after watching the teaser trailer and it's clear Anthony Ingruber would have been the perfect choice for a young Han Solo instead of Alden. With respects to Alden, he's simply no Harrison Ford impersonator, and that's key to playing Han Solo.
RENZ No..... good acting is not impersonating. It’s good for little tidbits like this movie or for RUclips vids but impersonating is not gonna carry a movie
Sounds like him, looks like him, ACTUALLY PLAYED HIM IN A MOVIE and doesn't get cast as Han Solo in the movie? what the hell is wrong with you f Disney?
wasn't this his audition for Han Solo? second to none godammit!
Kid, you need to be the real next Han Solo. Saw you in Age of Adeline and I thought it was computer generated and then said, no, man, it is real!
His voice is identical to that of Ford in the 80s! It’s pathetic Disney didn’t cast him as young Han Solo, he’d also be perfect as young Indy for some prequel films.
I think they just dubbed his voice
@@MaximumCarne
No, they didn't. Look at Ingruber's own videos from many years ago made in his home bedroom impersonating Ford as Solo and Indy. There's no dubbing, that's him speaking. The guy is impressive and Disney dropped the ball, case closed.
@@oscarjimenezgarrido7591 that's good
For the people asking why this guy didn't get the role over the one they picked, Steven Spielberg is close friends with the new Han solo actor, he had recommendations from him, think about it the previous directors said they had auditions for more than 100 actors and the one they chose was the first one who auditioned, why was he the first one who auditioned? Don't be stupid you know why.
All this time I tought this was CGI, I even tought it looked kinda fake hehe.
Please cast him for Han Solo!!
And to think, he did audition for the role in “Solo: A Star Wars story”.
Thanks for posting a HQ version of this clip!
Disney not casting Anthony as Han was possibly the dumbest miscasting of all time.
Damn it, Disney!! That's Han Solo right there!!
holy cow thats an amazing harrison ford impression
I see all this talk about Ingruber being an impressionist and not an actor. That would be true if all he had done was impressions on RUclips, but there is a filmography. 2008 he played an air force pilot in a short, he played an extra (uncredited) in Avatar in 2009, voice work in 2009 in Reminiscence, in 2010 played in the movie Avalon High as Sean, short film voice acting in Last Minute in 2010, played Joe the The Force in 2012, played young William Jones in 2015 in the Age of Adaline, played in the short film, Eyes Open Nevermore in 2015, also in Sinceley, Batman as Batman AND Joker, narrated How Star Wars Fans Think in 2015 as the voice of Han Solo, voiced a character in 2015 in Tempus Box and played in 2017 short film, 2017 The Monster. He's played in TV since 2006, played James Bond in 2012 How It Should Have Ended, two episodes of Skyrim at the Movies as Tony Stark AND Thor, played voice characters in video games since 2014. He's been acting since 2006 in almost every media you can imagine.
At what point does Anthony Ingruber BECOME an actor. He IS an actor and has been cast as such since 2006. He has nothing to prove to anyone here. Based on his experience before and after Solo, yes, he should have been cast as the young Han Solo in the movie, Solo. Other machinations were in play so that no matter how good he was or was not for the role, his acting chops had no bearing on the fact he didn't get the role. He didn't get the role because someone else wanted Alden to get the role. It's as simple as that. If that person had not been involved, I could see Anthony getting the role. I think we would have had a much better film if he had.
A little bit of research before making comments might work to everyone's advantage, yes?
They should make a cameo with him in the mandalorian. 😊
The Voice 😭😍 Just wanna hear him say “Hey Kid” or “It’s the fastest ship in the galaxy”.
I would have seen the Han Solo movie if they had cast this guy!
Its criminal he wasnt chosen for 'Solo'.
Guys, it’s over for him as Han Solo BUT, seeing as Harrison Ford is done with Indiana Jones, they could always just reboot it with Anthony Ingruber and just tell new stories and still set them all in the 30s & 40s.
Hmmm, ONLY if Atlantis!
@@dallesamllhals9161 Yes, and that’s another thing to consider. I bet there are a bunch of great Indiana Jones stories/scripts out there. We just need an exec who’s brave enough to not ruin it with DEI and wokeness.
There is something awfully wrong with lucasfilm for not hiring this young man.
There´s something terribly wrong about this kid not being Han Solo in the spin of movie...
Looks like Harrison Ford, sounds like Harrison Ford. They hired this guy for the Solo film, right??
You act like Disney has been making good decisions for Star Wars.
This is the first time I've seen Ingruber and Jesus Christ!! If only they had cast him in Solo, Disney would have had the biggest Star Wars hit. They really are fucking hack muppets for letting this guy go by!! I thought Ford was dubbing his voice he was so spot on!!!!
Hey guys, I uploaded a longer version with more of Anthony Ingruber's performance in Age of Adaline ruclips.net/video/f33h8p9Bacc/видео.htmlm30s
He is so a young Han Solo, he looks just like him and he sounds so much like him too, hes proved hes got acting chops. But I bet the studio will just cast some big, popular actor whos flavor or the month, I keep hearing about that Tavon or Taron something guy from that Eddie the Eagle movie, like hes been considered or auditioned for the Iconic role, and Disney will only be interested in whoever is popular amongst the mainstream, they wont care if he looks or sounds like him, they wont care about that.
1:03 "You're Welcome" ~ that deep drawl voice along with those systematic head moves when he says this just gets me every single time it's just absolutely fabulous just absolutely love this whole movie just magic !
Anthony's uncanny resemblance to Harrison Ford alone would have made SOLO a box office smash! This proves that the people now running LUCASFILMS are out of their minds.
I’m not even joking when he first started talking I thought this was a weird edit where Harrison fords voice was out over the younger version as like a flash back... man I wish he were cast for the Han Solo film
Indiana Jones trailer just dropped and i can't believe they went for another vanilla variation of Troy Baker instead of my boy Anthony damn
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING I literally came back here to see if anyone else mentioned it
Solo was produced amazingly and was underrated. It would have been a major hit if Ingruber was cast instead.
This is the guy that voiced Joker in Batman: The Telltale Series.
Let's hope he will play young Indy in some flashbacks in the new movie!
Never seen this movie. But for a moment I thought I expected a young cg version of Ford.
Damn this guy is dead on young Harrison Ford
he was great in this. he nailed harrison fords mannerisms completley
Shame on Disney for not casting Anthony Ingruber.
I completely agree with you!!
This guy should have been casted as Solo.
This looked more interesting than most of the film.
If he's not the new Han Solo then Disney are incredibly stupid.
He does not look or sound like Harrison in any way.
+LeagueOfGaming1000 there are many people that say he looks exactly like the young Ford.
라코알 There are also a lot of people who are wrong
LeagueOfGaming1000 Like you. :P
tigertron Actually no... google a picture of young Harrison ford and this guy looks nothing like him.
I just got berated by someone when I made a comment about him being a better choice for young Han. Weird people out there.
Don Substance Agreed, they are in denial that their precious Disney isn't perfect
I wonder if that wasn't just another bad Kathleen Kennedy / Ryon Johnston MISTAKE. The fans wanted Ingruber so their immediate instincts were .... DO THE OPPOSITE!!!! :(
It's a good thing Disney didn't hire him for Solo. That actually would have been a good decision.
That's our young Han Solo not this other dude .
The first time I saw this, I thought this was a CGI Harrison Ford. I remember thinking, how the hell were they able to make Harrison look this young and have it look this natural? When I saw that it was another actor in the credits, I immediately looked this young man up. Considering the fact that they had to hire an acting coach for Alden, they should have hired this guy and had an acting coach work with him instead. I remember when Spielberg tried to force Haley Joel Osment on J.K. Rowling and she put her foot down. J.K. knew that a good actor is required, but a part of that is the look. For all of the "impersonator" comments, this scene shows Anthony as a young Harrison Ford with original dialogue. He is not impersonating Harrison here; he "is" a believable young Harrison Ford. Disney really messed up.
How did they not pick him for Han Solo... I mean come on he looks like him, sounds like him, and he already nailed a past version Harrison Ford character in this movie.
Disney really messed up not casting Anthony as Hans Solo in Solo he literally looks like him and can act like him perfectly
I really don't understand why Disney couldn't have hired him.... I really can't. He auditioned on RUclips he has the looks, voice, and swagger. The only thing I can think of is that he was busy. It's crazy because doesn't he already play a young Harrison Ford here. Like it's simple math, you could have hired him.
Actually, he did audition for the roll. Disney considered him then dismissed him, saying that they wanted han solo to be an independent character, not a pseudonym for Harrison Ford.
Big, BIG mistake. HUGE!
Damn man. Harrison Ford reborn. Holy shit. Why isnt he the new face of Solo? He acts more like Solo in this scene than anything Ive seen out of the new "movie".
WHAT THE FUCK Disney thought of, when they didn't take this guy as Han Solo?!
This actor said he would have loved to play Han solo, he auditioned. And Disney fucked up
I would love to see his audition!
Kathleen Kennedy HATES the FANS, so if the fans want something, she WON'T do it. Simple math......
He was born to be a young Han Solo. What a missed opportunity.
Same as Clive Owen for James Bond or Kate Beckinsale for Lara Croft.
They should have used Anthony in the Solo movie. He's a much better Ford than the other dude.
Idk what Disney was thinking smh you have an actor that literally played young Harrison perfectly here and knew about him for the role of a Solo yet decided some other actor that looks nothing like Harrison nor acts or sounds like him to be the new Han Solo
Hold up they knew about him
John Gat yup! He was one of the front runners that auditioned for the role but went with the other guy smh
@@shaunbang how did they fuck this up
John Gat one word. Disney. Smh the moment they said they were recasting Han and heard that they knew and auditioned this guy but chose a dude that has zero resemblance to Harrison I knew it was going to be a shit show and halfway thru production it became exactly that with them firing the directors and having to give the main actor “acting lessons” because he wasn’t doing a good enough job lmao
They cast Alden Ehrenreich because he was a Spielberg discovery, and Spielberg's the one who initially recommended him. Basically, nepotism is why Anthony didn't play Han.
