“We are very excited to be working with Harrison Ford,” said Lakeshore president Gary Lucchesi. “He’s one of the great actors of our time, and will be perfect for the role of William in The Age of Adaline.”

“We are absolutely thrilled to have such a talented superstar as Harrison Ford join this project and can’t wait for production to get underway,” said Lionsgate Motion Picture Group co-chairman Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger.
