Adam Driver looks like he's 20 but then he looks like he's 30, but then at the same time he also looks like he's 40. Wtf
Exactlyyyyyyy!!!!
Fellow Memer mind blown 🤯
@Catherine Heridis
"Ugly as sin"?
Look in the mirror if you look for that.
He is beautiful. I love him so much
🖤😭😭
C’mon guys, are we in elementary school? Calling people ugly? Many admire him because of his confidence and charisma. He’s also very humble and we’ll spoken. Don’t knock him down for having a few unique features.
I still think his role as Kylo Ren is underrated. You can't take your eyes off of him in every scene, because he's so mysterious and intriguing. A spectacular actor.
He's by far the most interesting character... perhaps the only interesting character
He’s also, y’know, pretty handsome
definitely the most dynamic character to come out of the series. every other character is either pure good or pure evil bc of something w their family. ren definitely was motivated by family (vader&han) but he was always back and forth, angry, hurting, etc idek how to describe it. ig he was more than one thing apposed to everyone else
It's not underrated in the industry. Only in the minds of old fanboys.
Underrated wtf? He is the reason most people watched the new movies.
He’s a really good actor; plays Kylo Ren fantastically.
in really good movies wink wink
No, Kylo Ren played Adam Driver.
And Charlie in marriage story
ugh ik.
That’s why Adams my favorite actor
Damn Adam's back must've hurt from carrying the entire trilogy.
Well, he was a Marine, so I think he was up to it. (And I totally agree he made these movies what they were.)
adam took the mess that jj abrams created and made it worth EVERYTHING
It was nice to see him not be forced to do nearly as much of the monkey dancing around to promote it as the other cast was
I sincerely hope he can move on and do great things without getting sucked back into the gravity well of star wars
This comment is in every kylo ren related video, just find something original, plus saying that is like saying vader is carrying the og trilogy, that's becausw he's the villain he's as important as the heroes
Ok but 📠 not 🖨
This guy is not your typical handsome dude. But his intensity and rawness in Star Wars really made him very masculine and attractive. Plus his voice made me melt!
omg I couldn't put my 'feelings' into words but this describes it very accurately :D
You explained it very well lol
I honestly think he is such a heart throb! The hair the height and those deep eyes...also that voice😍
Queen of The Crossroads Yesss SO attractive ♥️
Have you looked at his ears? There's a very good reason why he covers them up with his hair all the time.
Adam Driver has the perfect looks/voice to play a young Severus Snape omfg
Mahima Rahman i just thought the same and decided to read the comments ! He would be a perfect snape
Mahima Rahman no thanks. That franchise is dead
pizza you’re lying Dolores
I agree! When I watched "The Force Awakens" for the first time and he took off his mask... My first comment was "He looks like a young Snape!!"
Mahima Rahman oh man you’re right. But can he do the British accent? :)
It's nice to have someone like Adam Driver who is so down to earth in Hollywood.
You remind me of keanu reeves lol
Him and Keanu
He's the new Keanu reeves
He lives in NYC tho lol
I saw both movies and i can say he is one of the best actors in our generation
The way he changes from a villian, "kylo ren" in star wars to a sad and tired dad in "marriage story" is just MINDBLOWING
I really like this dude, great actor
Woxar st you should see Logan Lucky where he has a THICC southern accent
The way he transitioned from Kylo to Ben in TRoS...
He is really excellent as Adam in the show Girls, I'm infatuated with him the last 3 weeks, I discover people late and that's okay
Adam kills it as Kylo Ren and he killed it as Charlie in Marriage Story. I'm in on anything he's in.
On BOARRDDDDDDD 💃
Agreed!
You should watch BlackkKlansmen then : )
Stay Hungry his smile’s the best
@@charlotte1100 his smile warms the soul
I find him really attractive
It's his confidence. But so do I.
Same
Kratos you don’t have to be perfect to be loved or desired homie
He’s really hot imo and I saw another comment that said he’s an ugly hot which is accurate lol
ya same
Adam driver has become one of my favorite actors no doubt. He has so much potential and acting skills that I haven’t seen in a while. Actors now a days are all about fame. This dude actually enjoys and puts serious passion to his roles
So does Joaquin phoenix
@@wirno2559 Who said the opposite? Can only one actor be good at any one time? They're both fantastic fucking hell..
Jojo_N_Dat I think he was just adding to the conversation lol, your the only one bringing up one actor being the best at a time.
@@LuLu-lh1hz Sure, maybe I was wrong..
Kratos Get in the boat boi.
Adam Driver, may the Academy be with you!
Yeey
Always
To me, one of the most intriguing characters in all of Star Wars, not only this new trilogy. Fantastically played by Adam. He was pretty much the standout in each of these new movies (again, to me personally. Anyone can have a different opinion on this, obviously)
John Doe agree
someone (i think it was girls with sabers) described ben solo as the ferrari of star wars characters and it's so true. most of the credit goes to adam for humanizing the character by adding so much depth and nuance in his performance. I don't think anyone else could have done it as seamlessly as he did
Kylo Ren is now one of my favourite Star Wars characters
Nah this new trilogy is worth watching mainly thanks to his character.
I couldn’t imagine anyone else as Kylo Ren, he did great
Imagina keeanu reeves
rüüner wichsler he is more of an darth revan
rüüner wichsler god he would be perfect too I can’t pick who I like better haha..
I couldn't look anywhere but his hairrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, omg, so beautiful. And his voice is sooo good, very deep
p.s very soft and gentle interviewer.
One of the sexiest voices on Earth!
Him and daisy need to be more movies together like their chemistry is insane
SAME they're chemistry is unique and iconic
Camila Olguin yessss
* me thinking if they’ll be good to be dating irl for some reason
Tamara Olson lol Adam is married 😂😂😂
Purple Goaties yess but they do a great job together
I saw Rise Of Skywalker today and both he and Daisy Ridley were dynamite in the film.
There's this remarkable stillness and intensity about him which reminds me of another actor, partly also based on his looks; Charles Bronson.
In all, Adam Driver is incredibly talented and riveting on screen. I've yet to see him deliver a ropey performance in anything & i sincerely hope he never does.
dynamite yep thats the word !
Actually, that's a really good comparison. In fact, other than his height, etc, when Adam has a mustache, there's a remarkable resemblance to Bronson!
They even share the same zodiac sign, and are quite private individuals too. Similarities aplenty.
Snape + Keanu Reeves = Adam Driver
Alan Rickman?
😅😁
In a way
The way Adam transforms is quite mindblowing. I don't see him when he performs but a fully formed character. Star Wars was lucky to have him.
*Ben Solo plays Adam Driver really good.*
Better than good
@@annalyssaloya3751 perfectly
@@pandlno3914 yes
Major crush here...
May I ask why?
Aybak x bruh
Mood
SAME! Like his features shouldn’t be attractive but combined with his personality they just are?
@@LewisDee007 honest question, I just don't see him as crush material
Adam Driver is great in everything he does.
@Stay Hungry Have you seen him smiling? He's adorable. Those dimples and slightly crooked teeth totally add to the charm.
People, if you haven’t seen his film Paterson, SEE IT. Absolutely STELLAR performance
00Mindi00 righttttt
THIS.
Finally someone! Was searching for a mention of Paterson. It's a shame people don't know Jarmusch and this wonderful collaboration with Driver
Daizen love Jim, and loved his work on his Paterson which I felt was a masterpiece of a film.
They did him dirty in the latest film
yeah that ending pissed me off so much. i’ve been waiting since 2015 for rey and kylo ren to fall in love/ kiss and when they do, they kill him off. the ending sucked
maile carvalho Thanks
maile carvalho that's what we all wanted 😔
Star Wars ganna die out after killing him off tbh he was a fan favorite instant
Spoiler alert bois... add the spoiler alert.
Adam Driver is EVERYTHING - a true magician on the screen 🤩 Can’t wait to see him in ANY future projects! 🙌🏼 Plus he is generally just a great human being. In other words, anything he does is worth watching!
He looks so much better without his beard and mustache
Nobody could play kylo ren as he do
Maïwenn u mean Ben solo
Nm_thiccboy both !
My boy Adam.. grew up with him in Mishawaka... So glad he gave acting another shot...
What was he like
The scene in his stingy apartment, where he looses it, and then concedes...that is the best piece of acting I have seen in my life, anyone that can give me something better than that, I want to hear it.
I feel sorry for Adam Driver’s back, he carried this whole trilogy 🙇🏿♂️
Damn, Joanne Tucker is one lucky girl to have such a wonderful person in her life 🥺💕
Say whatever you want about the Star War movies, he's a great actor.
SPOILERS FOR TROS
Ben Solo and Adam Driver deserves better.
Adam Driver 2025: “I was never in Star Wars.”
Lol
Bilge Pump 😂
Bruhhh
I dont understand ?
@@BJJ543 you wouldn't get it
He’s a really great actor, I really like that he has a variation of characters. I feel like a lot of actors and actresses play the same character every movie, but Adam plays different characters each time
That's why he's one of my favorite celebrities. His work of art and performance is inspiring! And he respects and still helps out the military. I know he will win an Oscar someday
my squirrel brain whenever i see adam driver: HIM BIG
He's the only who's actually makes sense to the new Star wars universe.
Adam I'm so sorry, Ben deserved so much better
He was the real Hero in the Trilogy, not Rey
HenMrtz X8 no like he’s cool but not a hero
Zion Sean u do know Star Wars was always meant to be about the skywalker
He's so freaking attractive OMG. Besides one of the best actors ever.
“To ask other people to give two hours of their time, it better be worth it” DAMN. That’s an artist who takes pride in their work. Respect.
Why am I so attracted to him? He’s not perhaps classically handsome but there’s just something about him. He’s got the X factor. He seems wise, he’s definitely well spoken, his acting shows depth & I’m all here for it 🙌🏽
Same, girl😍
Tiffany Yates Dougherty a lot of these “classically handsome” actors are meh tbh, maybe with the exception of Chris Hemsworth and Chris Pine
“The man who killed Don Quijote” and “ The dead don’t die” are my favorite Drivers’ roles.
When they remake Harry Potter for Netflix or whatever, I need him to play a young Snape because duh.
Adam Driver vs Joaquin Phoenix for the Oscars?
LIKE for Adam
COMMENT for Joaquin
Damn that's tough...
ADAM!!
Gabriela Bădiloiu yea...
Shit, they both are really good actors.
i wish they both could get it... but joaquin was robbed SEVERAL times...
him playing bad guy made me have the biggest crush on him 😂😂😂😂😂
Adam driver is so handsome and one of my favorite actor. He is very talented and good with drama. Kylo Ren and Adam will always be one.😊👏
I think he wants to leave kylo ren behind
Maybe I'm in love with Adam Driver
Girl, me too...
me too...
Amanda Betts me too
Me too 😍 he’s awesome!
no one:
positively no one:
me after watching a 38 min video of just clips of adam driver, all of his snl skits, interviews, press conferences, and literally anything that contains adam:
He’s so humble 🥰
He's so cute! I started following him since I saw him in "girl's"
wendy arias me too!
He’s an incredible actor and the raw emotion that just seems to radiate from him whilst he’s acting is just so powerful and moving.
I love watching him on screen because he never ceases to amaze me with his incredible skills!!
He's on the the best actors of our generation for sure. It's crazy how many roles he plays
He sounds like he should be a voice actor
He's one precious soul, i wish i have a person like him in my life
I'm so happy that my favorite actor is famous now! I am looking forward to more films and that Oscar win!
His hot a super famous his just a B rate actor abc is owned by Disney they trying to push the movie
@@wisdomfox857 go back to school and learn English and sentence structure. Then try to have a conversation. If all you want to tell me is a stupid opinion you have, Go fuck yourself as well.
I just love him and rey. Such connection. And I love what he doing for military.. he just seems to understand (of course, because he was one of them) and they way he describes coming from it, to real world. He can say what they can't say. See him on TED, to see what I mean.
A Former infantry Marine who wants to give back. What a Cool interview.
Lmao are you serious?
Seems like a prima dona. Walked out of an NPR interview...
@@Brotha00 Because he doesn't like to watch/listen to himself on film and they insisted on playing something while he was there. They were told ahead of time but didn't apparently didn't care. Not wanting to watch yourself do what you think is a terrible job is the opposite of a prima donna.
billiey giles yea, I read it. He describes it as a phobia. A fear of seeing himself in clips. Like I said, prima dona. Weirdo.
@@Brotha00 Maybe you should look up "prima donna" instead of "prima dona", then you might understand what it means - because you don't seem to get it.
Kylo Ren--Baby
Adam Driver: elegantly sips coffee
Look at your father boy. Look upon your father with pride.
One man came close to breaking me. HR Pickens. He did not succeed...
For I CRUSHED HIM INTO THE GROUND!!!
This is easily my favorite skit from SNL.
Oh my heart the way he dresses ♥️♥️
I hope Adam knows that he's an amazing actor. I would gladly give two hours (or more) to watch him acting.
I wish Kylo didn't get such a bad rep. He did such an amazing job on that character. The intensity, the emotion, the full on rage. And then the moment of calm.
He has an intense and genuine nature about him that really draws you in and makes you want to listen/watch. His personality shines through in every role he assumes but at the same time he makes the character unique. He has such a raw sexiness about him, yet with a boyish charm at times that catches you off guard. I would love to hang out and have a conversation with him (me and more than I can count others would too eh? lol!). Between desire and humor I would be buzzing from a natural high :)
All I wanted to get from marriage story was seeing Adam driver be able to play more than a villain (never watched his other stuff, sorry) and my god did he just blow me away. Him in marriage story was absolutely phenomenal, the argument scene had me feeling so uncomfortable in the perfect way. Great job at portraying every emotion throughout that film.
He’s my favorite actor. Ever. I’m majorly fan girling, and crushing rn...lmfao I love him
Mr Driver, thank you for sharing your inspiring story with us. I heard recently that you wish to forget and move on from your role as Kylo Ren in SW. I'm sure it was probably physically and mentally exhausting, and it is difficult as an actor when you don't want to be defined by just one role. You have had many good roles that people are discovering through thier introduction to you in SW. I personally feel you helped create a deep and complex character in Kylo, and I for one feel you contributed greatly to the series as a whole. Your dedication and professionalism is respected, and your kind, thoughtful, and hard working soul is an inspiration. I am sure you will continue to do great roles and be a good influence in the world, and thank you for your service to our country, but please never discount the power and value of your efforts in SW. Thank you! :)
He such a down to earth guy, and I love his story. I think he is a phenomenal actor, he really takes each role and becomes it. It seems like he can embody anything, which is rare as many actors get pigeonholed into certain roles or characters.
He is such a beautiful looking human 😍
My freaking hero this man is a legend
The very best of his generation. His range truly frightens me.
Jaxson Burke you mean how far he can smell or?
@@Wogix26 😂🤦♂️acting.
Jaxson Burke I know just being a dick
I’m low key obsessed with this guy not gonna lie
He and Daisy Ridley literally are my favorite duo in the newer Star Wars films.
"To ask someone to give 2 hours of their time, it better be worth it " --- tells him how humble Adam is.
i love adam driver with my whole entire heart he’s an amazing actor
Im so happy he is getting the attention he deserves! Go Adam!
He's so damn excellent in Marriage Story
I. Love. Adam. Driver. He’s such a talented actor and his role as Kylo ren is SO AMAZING! His character is the best. Ugh he’s the greatest actor ever, no one can change my mind
Actually a great singer, very unique.
He is the best actor in my generation and such a heart throb!
he is so hot
Facts
Periodt
Oh the spike lee movie that’s where I saw him , he chooses different roles , his legacy will be A1! Keep going bro 👏🏽
I am in love with him
He is genuinely humble yet confident. Bless him!
For some reason, I am super attracted to him? Like I'm in love i dont even know why
Hes also a former marine. Salute to this hero.
Anthony Campos was he deployed overseas?
@@rasul407 i have no idea, but he signed up and went through the training and everything. Balls
Anthony Campos respect indeed! I was close to get recruited myself and didn’t have the balls to go further lol. Air Force baby
There's no such thing as a former Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine.
R R he dislocated his sternum and was medically discharged I believe
Honestly I haven’t seen a lot of his stuff but he’s on my list of god tier actors
He was phenomenal in both movies he’s so well rounded in any role
Well, it's over for me. New favorite actor. New celebrity crush. Hope to see more great things from him.
he is PHENOMENAL
I liked him in Logan Lucky!
His walk in the movie is insane. He walks like John wick
Adam Driver is definitely one of the best actors out there and was by far the most complete character of this sequel trilogy.
I’ve seen all of the sequel trilogy films multiple times including The Rise of Skywalker and What If and Marriage story and I can say that Adam Driver is one of the most phenomenal actors of our time.
Why would u subjugate ur self with pain by watching the sequel trilogy multiple of times
?Unknown %Percentage haha good question
I mean to me, Adam Driver is not my kind a man in real life but in Star Wars he is so attractive and I don't know his character is very fascinating and mysterious.
so I just want to see more of him 😂❤️
Love Adam Driver 🥰
Not only a brilliant actor but a brilliant man. I wish I could find my Adam Driver hehe.
honestly adam driver is the only reason i sit through star wars movies
Just a quick reminder we shouldn’t disrespect Adam in anyway like giving out his address and tell private thing about his life and we always should respect his queen💜🥺 and his personal life just don’t cross the line, please.🥺🖤😎
My new favorite actor can’t wait to see him in more movies
I admire him so much because he is an actor down to earth, not seeking for recognition as a celebrity; although he is one.
