Meanwhile, Heche previously made headlines after she shared details about her previous relationship with DeGeneres. Last year, the actress claimed that she was canceled from Hollywood after executives learned that she was dating the comedian.
“I didn’t do a studio picture for 10 years. I was fired from a $10 million picture deal and did not see the light of day in a studio picture,” she told Page Six.
But while everyone refused to work with her, Heche revealed that Harrison Ford told her that he wanted her to star in Six Days, Seven Nights with him.
“He said, ‘Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn who you’re sleeping with. We have a romantic comedy to make. Let’s make it the best one that’s ever happened.’ That is why Harrison Ford is my hero. To stand behind me at such a time when the force of what I was standing up for could have been toppled,” she said.
