AceShowbiz - Ryan Gosling reveals he was punched in the face by Harrison Ford while they were filming a fight scene for "Blade Runner 2049". Ryan is surprised when an interviewer asked about the on-set incident, saying, "How did you hear that?"
"Yeah, [Harrison] did [punch me in the face]," Ryan told GQ for its January issue, "It was kind of, you know, a rite of passage. We were just doing a fight scene and, you know, it just happened. But what was funny was, when it was over, they brought ice for my face, and Harrison pushed me out of the way and stuck his fist in the ice."
The "La La Land" actor laughs and adds, "I asked him the other day where he got his sense of humor from-was it from his mother or his father? He said, 'Sears.' And he didn't have much time to shop around so he just had to grab one and get out."
When asked if he was hurt, Ryan says, "You know...[Harrison]'s tough. He's been an inspiration to everyone-everyone is doing push-ups now and taking an interest in their fitness. As soon as it happened, the director came up to me and said, 'Look at it this way-you just got hit by Indiana Jones.' "
Harrison later approached Ryan and poured him a glass of scotch. "[Harrison] came by afterward with this bottle of scotch, and I thought, 'Oh, I knew this was coming.' And he pulled out a glass from his pocket, poured me a glass, and walked away with the rest of the bottle. So I guess he felt like he didn't connect enough to earn a whole bottle," he recalls, "You know, they say don't meet your heroes, but I would say the addendum to that is '...unless they're Harrison Ford.' 'Cause he's a cool motherf***er."

Ryan has been in Hungary for the past four months, filming the "Blade Runner" sequel. "It's like three movies that I usually make in one," he shares, "Just in terms of the length and just the whole scope and experience."
"The snipers are in the bell tower, waiting. I've never done something so shrouded in secrecy or where there's so much anticipation," he adds.
