Surprisingly, Harrison Ford prefers his iconic Indiana Jones character over Star Wars' just as iconic Han Solo character for more than one reason.
It may come as a surprise to some, but Harrison Ford has actually voiced on multiple occasions his preference for Indiana Jones over Star Wars' Han Solo. While it may be hard to imagine Ford being able to so easily favor one iconic film character over the other, his confessions to various sources confirm his loyalties lie with the thrill-seeking adventurer, Dr. Henry Walton "Indiana" Jones.

The breadth of his story utility was never extensive. He was the foil between the other more compelling elements of the film, between the sage old warrior and the young hero. There's not much breadth of character to explore beyond what we got out of him."
In Indiana Jones, Ford gets to play the hero - indeed, he gets to play one of Star Wars' biggest heroes in Han Solo, but Solo is not the hero in the way Luke Skywalker is. Star Wars holds Han Solo to the responsibility of sidekick, while Indiana Jones has a lot more room to play as the namesake main character.
