Personal Quote:
"Never give up. Take what life throws at you and throw it right back. If life keeps throwing then you have a tennis match going. Learn to like tennis." (2002) See more »Trivia:
Played "Jonathan Kent" in the 1978 film Superman (1978). In Superman Returns (2006), a photograph of him as "Jonathan Kent" can be seen in Clark Kent's old home. "Superman Returns" was released two months and two days prior to Ford's death, and this photo reference is the last time he will be referenced as Jonathan Kent, before the Superman reboot with Henry Cavill.
