Adam Driver Reveals the ‘Star Wars’ Scene He’ll Never Live Down: ‘Somebody Reminds Me About

It’s been almost a decade since Kylo Ren killed his father, Han Solo, in the dramatic twist ending of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” But Adam Driver still hasn’t lived down that scene with Harrison Ford, telling Chris Wallace in a new interview, “Somebody reminds me about that every day.”

After Wallace responded, “Are you serious?,” Driver said, “Not every day, but yeah. It used to be more but now it’s probably once a month someone will let me know that I killed Han Solo.”

While Driver said filming the scene itself didn’t feel “tough,” it was nonetheless “very emotional shooting it with Harrison.”

“Harrison was so generous and contemplative, and to me that was a great moment on set, even though it was his death,” the actor said on Wallace’s Max series “Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace.”

Killing Han Solo is a significant “Star Wars” turning point that leads Kylo down a path of internal struggle, as the Jedi is torn between the light and dark sides of the Force in the subsequent films of the sequel trilogy.

Driver has previously talked about the reaction to Kylo turning to the Dark Side, telling GQ in 2017 that he was “sick to my stomach” during the “Force Awakens” premiere as he anticipated fans watching his character’s shocking moment.

“The people behind me, when the scroll started, were like ‘Oh my god. Oh my god. It’s happening.’ Immediately, I thought I was going to puke,” Driver said. “I was holding my wife’s hand, and she’s like, ‘You’re really cold. Are you OK?’ Because I just knew what was coming — I kill Harrison — and I didn’t know how this audience of 2,000 people was going to respond to it, you know?”

Driver’s latest role is Enzo Ferrari in Michael Mann’s racing biopic, “Ferrari,” out Dec. 25.
