Star Wars: Adam Driver Won’t Rule Out Kylo Ren Return

It’s not inconceivable that we’ll see Rey, Poe, or even Kylo Ren in future projects from a galaxy far, far away – despite Ren’s fate in that aforementioned closing chapter – if House of Gucci actor Adam Driver has confirmed in a recent interview.

“No, I’m not against it at all [doing more Star Wars]’, the driver told UNILAD. “For me it’s a medium for filmmakers, so my only thing is working with great filmmakers. Regardless of the size… it’s never been interesting to me, to some extent. There are interesting things working on both. I always just follow people I’d like to work with, and if I’d be a good fit for the role – that sort of thing. No, certainly not dirty.”

Last year, Driver’s Sequel Trilogy co-star Oscar Isaac also considered a possible Star Wars return, albeit in a more ironic way, saying he would reprise his role as hotshot pilot Poe Dameron “if I need another house or something.” A few months later, he began negotiations for the lead role of Marc Spector in Marvel Studios’ upcoming Disney+ series, Moon Knight. At the very least, that money should earn him an impressive outbuilding.

Plenty of rumors have hinted that Daisy Ridley will star in the future Star Wars projects, but nothing has been confirmed. The actress told IGN that she’s “totally, totally happy with how that story ended. I just don’t know what else [Rey] could do that I didn’t have to.”

Meanwhile, John Boyega, who previously had strong words about his treatment as Finn in the sequel trilogy, seems to have warmed up to the idea a bit as long as the conditions are right, saying he’s “open to the conversation as long as it’s Kathleen, JJ, and maybe someone else and the team, it’s a good idea.”

Anyway, talk about bringing back the Sequel Trilogy characters in live-action will just keep talking for now.
