Harrison Ford Makes First Appearance Since Crash with 'Star Wars' Reunion Panel
Harrison Ford, who hasn't done a public event since his dramatic plane crash in March, showed up for the much-anticipated "Star Wars: Episode VII—The Force Awakens" panel at San Diego Comic-Con yesterday at the San Diego Convention Center.
Ford appeared on a panel for the upcoming film, seated alongside his costars from the original "Star Wars" series, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher.
Ford told the ecstatic crowd of his work on the new film:
"It should have felt ridiculous. That was 30-(something) years ago and I sort of grew up. And yet, there I was doing something I did so long ago. I will tell you that it felt great."

After the panel, the crowd of 7,000 was treated to a monumental concert of all the "Star Wars" music of composer John Williams.
