Things got a tad awkward and very funny when Harrison Ford "forgot" Ryan Gosling's name - mainly because they were sitting right next to each other ... on television.
The two were guests on The Graham Norton Show and sat side-by-side along with fellow stars Reese Witherspoon and Margot Robbie.
Ford told the host about receiving the script for Blade Runner 2049 when he appeared to have a mental blank while gesturing towards Gosling.
"And as I read it, I read about the character that ... um ..."
"It's Ryan," Gosling again confirmed, prompting much audience laughter. The two are new co-stars in the neo-noir science fiction film Blade Runner 2049, which will hit the big screen in a few days.
Ford continued the joke again in the interview, pretending to forget Gosling's name once more.
Ford told host Graham Norton that he'd told producers that Gosling would be a great fit for one of the characters in the Blade Runner script.
The producers told him they had been talking to Gosling for months. "Now wait a second. They'd only been talking to me for weeks. So they probably would have gone ahead without me!"
