He was joined by his wife and fellow actor Calista Flockhart, but the seating arrangements had other plans.

In a clip that has been circulating on social media, it shows the moment the 58-year-old looked confused after she noticed her seat was behind her husband and not beside him.

While Ford was taking in the standing ovation he received from the audience, before noticing he wasn't going to be sat next to his wife for the film screening.

"Look! You're right behind me. Well, that's the way it is," Ford said, noting the seating error as it appeared both assumed they were be sat next to each other.

At the end of the clip, Flockhart then headed to her seat.

Kyle Buchanan from New York Times, shared the clip on Twitter and wrote: “Awkward moment at the INDIANA JONES premiere when Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart arrive at his seat and she realises Cannes assigned her the row behind him.”
