He just sounds kinda grateful to be so successful in that interview tbh? He seems to be excited about/interested in a lot of different things which is a trait you want in a writer.

I did find that story about the HBO execs snubbing him kinda funny though

He sounds like a massive prick.

>SHERIDAN: They were excited. They only signed on originally for one season. They were so eager to continue it…Harrison made a comment at one point, he goes, Taylor I think I’m making the best thing I’ve made in 20 years. And my response to him was, what the fu*k did you make 20 years ago as good as this? What was that? I missed that one. What was it?

That pretty much summed up his tone throughout the article.

I think you're being too sensitive, but who knows, maybe he is an asshole IRL. A lot of southern guys rib each other like that though.

I guess if it's true the truth will come out eventually, I wouldn't draw a conclusion from just one article.

It’s arrogant to assume what he’s made here is better than Ford’s filmography. I realize you can make the argument Ford’s most prolific films were prior to 2000, but he’s one of the most well known actors with the among the biggest box office draws for a reason.

I’ve only seen some of Sheridan’s work (Yellowstone, Sicario), and have heard good things about what I haven’t seen. I can say from what I have seen though, that a good amount of Harrison Ford’s work is better than anything Sheridan has written.

He might’ve played it as a joke I’m not gonna read to much into a little comment

I don’t get grateful at all. He’s full alright though. Of himself. There is no way he talked to Harrison ford or dame Helen that way and to act like he did is out of control ego and wildly disrespectful to both actors. He’s been super successful and it sounds like he has let it go to his head.

He invited them over to his ranch and served them wine and promised to write a part tailored for them? Is that the part you're talking about?

I'm not seeing it unless you've heard Ford say that he was offended by how Taylor treated him.
