Last week, Vulture reported that Harrison Ford, who plays President Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross / Red Hulk, was reportedly difficult and temperamental during the filming of "Captain America: Brave New World." The report claimed crew members often had to appease him, and that Ford particularly disliked the motion-capture suit process required for his Red Hulk role.

While some dismissed these claims, others found them quite credible, given Ford's long-standing reputation for a gruff demeanor and occasional self-deprecating jokes about his temper. Now, director Julius Onah has addressed the rumors surrounding "Brave New World."

In a recent interview with "Variety," Onah stated that while he couldn't speak for others involved in the production, he could only share his personal experience working with Ford. Onah said that his interactions with Harrison were professional, deeply committed, and passionate. He acknowledged that the creative process often involves meaningful, and sometimes very passionate, discussions, but stressed that their ultimate goal was always to make the film the best it could be.

He believed Harrison's performance in the film was outstanding, adding that he felt honored to work with him and learned a great deal. Onah concluded by stating that everyone, both in front of and behind the camera, held great love and respect for Ford, emphasizing that this was his personal experience making the film and the true reality of their time on set.
