Harrison Ford thinks Dame Helen Mirren is a "real cool lady".
The 82-year-old actor stars with the Oscar-winning actress as couple Jacob and Cara Dutton in 'Yellowstone' prequel '1923' and when the cameras aren't rolling, the pair had a "good time" together.
Hailing her co-star "such a bloke", the 79-year-old actress told People magazine: "He's what in England we call a bloke. He is a guy, and because he's a bloke, all the other blokes absolutely love him, and quite rightfully.
"And he's always so lovely to all the other actors.
"The other guys just gather around Harrison because they just want to be in his company, I think. And I tag along."
Harrison added: "If I'm a bloke, she's what we used to call a broad — and there's no disparagement in calling a Dame a broad.
"It means that she's a woman that has the bandwidth to hang with men — not just to be a lady with them, but to actually hang with them. She's a real cool lady."
Helen praised the 'Star Wars' actor for always being present amongst his co-stars even when he wasn't filming.
She said: "We would sit around together and shoot the s*** off-set.
"Harrison is not like an, 'I'm going to my trailer' person. I don't think I ever knew him [or] remember him going ever to his trailer. We hang around on the set and we do our thing."
Harrison agreed: "We had a good time. A good time hanging out together as well as working together."
The couple think it is "rare" to see such a story as that of Jacob and Cara on screen these days.
Harrison said: "These two are partners as much as lovers, and [they're] depending on each other for things that they are not part of their quiver of arrows.
"And it's an extraordinary relationship that Taylor [Sheridan] has written for us to inhabit."
Helen agreed: "It's rare to see. In movies, people get married or they meet-cute and they fall in love and they have hot sex or whatever, and then it's all over, happily ever after.
"Well, this is the ever after. Now we're seeing what happens at the end of that story, and you very rarely see that on screen."
