After Adam Driver revealed a Kylo Ren-centered “Star Wars” movie was turned down by Disney, fans flocked to social media, lambasting the decision as the “biggest missed opportunity ever” by the entertainment conglomerate.
The outrage came about after both Driver and director Steven Soderbergh confirmed they had collaborated on an idea for a solo Kylo Ren movie, titled “The Hunt for Ben Solo,” but it was nixed given executives couldn’t figure out how Driver’s character was still alive after the events of “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.”
This, understandably, drew ire from dedicated fans, since the “Star Wars” franchise hasn’t been afraid to bring back characters from the dead in past films.
