Adam Driver has revealed that he and director Steven Soderbergh spent two years developing a “Star Wars” film titled “The Hunt for Ben Solo” — a project that would have followed Driver’s Kylo Ren after the events of “The Rise of Skywalker.”
In a recent interview with the Associated Press, Driver said he began discussions about returning to “Star Wars” in 2021, when Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy “reached out.” The idea became a collaboration with Soderbergh, resulting in a completed script that explored Ben Solo’s search for redemption.
“I always was interested in doing another ‘Star Wars,’” Driver said. “I always said: with a great director and a great story, I’d be there in a second. I loved that character and loved playing him.”
