Hollywood icon Harrison Ford has made a delightful return to celebrate the festive season with a new message promoting Glenmorangie whisky, the renowned single malt from Tain. The 83-year-old actor, recognized for his iconic roles in blockbuster franchises such as Star Wars and Indiana Jones, first became the face of Glenmorangie earlier this year through a creative web series designed to highlight the brand.
In this latest installment, Ford dons a festive Santa hat and traditional kilt, appearing in a special holiday greeting that was released on social media today. This new message builds on his previous work in the humorous 12-part series, titled “Once Upon a Time in Scotland,” directed by the acclaimed Australian actor and filmmaker Joel Edgerton, which is set to debut in January 2025.
The web series captures Ford’s journey as he humorously navigates the experience of filming an advertisement for Glenmorangie. Initially resistant, he becomes enchanted by the whisky’s craftsmanship, dedicated workforce, and rich origins. Throughout the series, viewers see Ford embracing the authentic Scottish culture, from mastering the subtleties of Scottish pronunciation and kilt etiquette to sharing moments with locals over a glass of the single malt, all presented in a candid, off-the-cuff style that adds to its charm.
In the newly released festive video, Ford, whisky in hand, conveys well wishes to audiences, stating, “I’m Harrison Ford. On behalf of myself and ‘Glenmorungie’, wishing you the happiest of holidays.” However, a voice off-screen promptly corrects his pronunciation. Ford humorously acknowledges, “Glenmorangie,” before savoring a dram and affirming, “Nice.”
As the holiday season approaches, Ford’s endearing and light-hearted message continues to enhance the brand’s appeal, inviting whisky enthusiasts and fans alike to celebrate the joy of the holidays.
