Ford had basically just started his career. He had a cameo in American Graffiti and then did Star Wars and Empire and then Raiders. It was still only 1981


American Graffiti came out in 1973 Star Wars and Empire were 2 of the biggest grossing movies of all time

I'm just saying he had really just started.

Ford said after he did Star Wars..."great, the movies a hit, now I can go act."

I can start my career.

And he also didn't want to be in Return.

Lucas hired him for Star Wars because he had a bit part in his American Graffiti...and Ford read lines to prospective Solos until Lucas realized, he'd just give it to Ford.

If Raiders is Ford's peak, then he peaked as soon as he started.

1977-1981 is the first 1/5 of his movie career as we know it.
