I don't think we can change the fact that people generally listen to what actors (and other charismatic people) have to say.
This is nothing new. For a local example, San Francisco's John Reber, and the plan he pushed to turn the Bay into a freshwater lake (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i70wkxmumAw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i70wkxmumAw is a good video to watch). For a state (California) example, there's Arnold Schwarzenegger. For a national (US-level) example, there's Ronald Reagan.
For what it's worth, Harrison Ford seems to be a stand-up guy. For example, his reaction when he accidentally landed his private plane on an airport taxiway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzy9jCFk0Iw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzy9jCFk0Iw
So, rather than saying "Stop listening to <insert charismatic group here>", it's better to engage with and educate them.
