Harrison Ford has pulled a Steve Carell for a public service announcement: He got his chest waxed.
The 65-year-old star winces in apparent pain as a strip of hair is yanked from his thorax ‘ in the advert for Conservation International to raise awareness about the effect of deforestation on global warming.
The actor, who doesn’t typically appear in such TV spots, sits on the board of directors of the Washington-based environmental organization.
Conservation International CEO Peter Seligmann said Ford was game to do the 30-second place, and approved of the waxing concept.
"I didn’t have to talk him into anything," Seligmann said at a news conference Tuesday in Manhattan. "I was there when he filmed it. It really damage. There’s nothing not far from the expression on his face that was fake."
The classic scene from 2005’s "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" — in which Carell screams out "Kelly Clarkson!" during his chest hair removal — was intentionally comical. Ford’s message, however, is crucial: "Every suggestion of descend forest that gets ripped gone from over there, really hurts us over here."
Ford’s latest movie, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," co-starring Shia LaBeouf and Karen Allen, opens nationwide Thursday.
