As if we needed a reason to love Harrison Ford even more, the Star Wars legend has just done something really cool with his character Han Solo’s leather jacket.
The 73-year-old actor auctioned off the iconic piece for a Wookie-wowing $191,000 – then gave the money to charity.
Harrison made the donation to NYU Langone Medical Center and the FACES Foundation (Finding A Cure For Epilepsy And Seizures)
Now that’s what we call using The Force (OK, a really famous piece of clothing) – and we’re pretty sure Han (and Chewbacca) would approve.
And while we’re on the subject of iconic movie costumes, here are the pieces the GLAMOUR team would love to get their hands on at auction (hey, we can dream).
“Julia Roberts’ red dress in Pretty Woman – but only if the diamonds came with.” Leanne Bayley, Content Editor
“Gene Kelly’s Singin’ In The Rain grey suit and Tony Curtis’ nautical ensemble from Some Like It Hot.” James Williams, Associate Editor
“Audrey Hepburn’s entire outfit in the train station scene of Sabrina – that Givenchy two-piece suit!” Rebecca Wright, Beauty Assistant
“Audrey Hepburn’s sunglasses in Breakfast At Tiffany’s. Holly Golightly is the chicest Holly, so what better way to channel my name twin than in her instant-glam shades?” Holly Quayle, Sub Editor
“Kate Hudson’s yellow dress from How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days. ” Dominique Temple, Junior Beauty Editor
“Marty McFly’s jacket from Back To The Future. Growing up, I thought Marty was the epitome of cool and I think it was because he just looked so damn hot in that bomber jacket. The one Ryan Gosling wore in Drive had the same effect.” Noot Coates, Bookings Assistant
“Marlon Brando’s leather jacket in The Wild One, because who doesn’t want to look that badass?” Ella Alexander, Fashion Features Editor
“Princess Leia’s white outfit in Star Wars, because it reminds me of my childhood. Also, I think I could wear it now (minus the plaited ear buns!).” Karen Preston, Acting Fashion Director
“A Pink Ladies jacket, because in my head I’m as cool as Rizzo. If not as sexy. And everything Andrea Riseborough wore in Madonna’s otherwise dreadful film about Wallis Simpson.” Jo Elvin, Editor-In-Chief
“I’d go for Marilyn Monroe’s glittery red dress from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, because it’s fabulous and I’m a superfan. Then Dorothy’s ruby slippers to match, because they’re my dream shoe. And they’d get me home without the Tube.” Laura Johnson, Chief Sub Editor
“Keira Knightley’s green dress in Atonement. And her figure please – not sure I’d get an M&S bra under that.” Hanna Woodside, Acting Entertainment Editor
“Michael Jordan’s shoes in Space Jam – Air Jordan 11!” Jason Attard, Engagement Manager
“I once paid $330 for a My Little Pony modified by the sculptor Mari Kasurinen to look like classic ’90s Rogue from X-Men. I regret nothing.” Kat Brown, Social Media Editor
