The therapist begins to tell his clients what he thinks

He ignores his qualifications and ethics, and finds himself making a huge difference in people’s lives, including his own. The cast of “Downsizing” shares key moments that defined their characters in the first season and reveals who would be the best to play Harrison Ford.

Eventually, Goldstein spoke to Ford and convinced him to take the role

When Brett Goldstein, Jason Siegel, and Bill Lawrence were asked how they got Harrison Ford on the show, Siegel said that Goldstein initially wanted a “Harrison Ford type” and wanted to audition people who looked like Ford. Siegel told Goldstein that they should have pitched it to Ford first, thinking he would immediately reject it, but at least others would hear that Harrison Ford had the project, which would also pique the interest of other famous actors.

Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to convince her, but he was very impressed.. The Downsizing is a rare gem, a show that’s as funny as it is deeply moving.

What makes The Downsizing special is how it balances its edgy humor with its visceral moments

It’s a smart, heartfelt exploration of grief, growth, and the awkward ways people try to fix themselves and each other. Jason Segel is wonderful as a therapist reeling from a personal loss, and Harrison Ford brings unexpected warmth and depth to his role as his gruff, business-minded mentor.

It’s absolutely brilliant

It’s an honest, emotional, and incredibly human show that understands how complicated and beautiful life can be.
