Harrison Ford has made no secret of the fact that he accidentally punched his co-star Ryan Gosling on set of Blade Runner 2049.
And Good Morning Britain’s Richard Arnold was keen on Piers Morgan getting the same treatment from the Hollywood silver fox, 75, as he asked him if he could punch the British TV host, 52, on Tuesday’s episode.
Looking back at the interview on-screen, Piers seemed to be all guns blazing for the showdown as he noted that Harrison was keen on the idea.

The hilarious potential showdown came after Harrison and Ryan, 36, were clearly taken aback by Alison Hammond’s interview technique as they chatted with the presenter during an episode of This Morning last week.
