The only thing that's better than Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones or Han Solo, is Harrison Ford as a hotdog.

The 73-year-old actor appeared on the Halloween episode of late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live.

The episode just might get you through another week of this seemingly endless wait for the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" premiere.

The interview consisted mostly of host Jimmy Kimmel attempting to elicit information about the movie, and Ford shrewdly dodging the questions.

Kimmel began by asking why Luke Skywalker did not appear in the film poster and trailers.

"There wasn't room," Ford replied, followed by a string of laughter from the audience and Kimmel himself.

The absence of central protagonist Luke Skywalker from the promotional materials of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has caused quite a stir from fans.

In another interview, director JJ Abrams stated explained that this phenomenon was "no accident."

Ford's reply seemed to strengthen Abrams' earlier statement.

"There's a very good reason," Ford claimed. "I can't tell you ... I can tell you this: it's really, really good. Trust me. It's really good. The new cast - Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac - are phenomenal. JJ has made an incredible movie. You will not be disappointed at all. I promise you," he added.

When Kimmel realized he wasn't going to get much from this hotdog, he shifted to another mode of inquiry.

"Who do you like better: George Lucas or JJ Abrams? And I'm not just talking about working, I mean, personally," Kimmel asked.

"Or, Donald Trump?" Ford injected. "I love them all."

Ford described that Lucas was "the author of the early chapters" of his life, and Abrams gave him "a chance to have a really wonderful part in a great movie."

The last part of the interview dealt with the fact that Ford asked Abrams to tell the writers to kill off Han Solo.

When asked if Ford was glad that the character didn't get the boot, he answered curtly, "Yes."
