“We’re hoping to show that language is a powerful tool, that self-expression is a powerful tool - it’s just as valuable as any rifle you carry or any tool you can put in your pack.” Those are the words of Marine-turned-actor Adam Driver (Girls, Star Wars: The Force Awakens) introducing a US military audience to the theatrical performance they were about to see.
Driver is the founder of Arts in the Armed Forces, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing thought-provoking and impactful contemporary theater to American military personnel currently “in theater.”
VICE News followed Driver and his fellow actors (including Joanne Tucker, Natasha Lyonne, Eric Bogosian, Peter Scolari, Sasheer Zamata, and many more) on their first trip to the Middle East, where they struggle to broaden the offerings of on-base entertainment beyond country-western cover bands and the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

He seems down to earth and not stuck up like alot of actors, seems very humble. I feel sorry for him with some of the hate hes getting with the Kylo Ren character, i thought his character was great and gave us something new, he starts off vader like then slowly falls apart with his emotions as the movie goes on.
You nailed it. I think the only knock on him is if you've seen him in 'Girls' it's hard to take him serious. That's not his fault though, if anything it shows how good of an actor he is that you can only see him that way.
+PinDiChing I guess people don't like character development.... Spot on, by the way.
He sure as HELL ain’t getting hate for it anymore! Kylo/Ben is the best thing to ever happen to the new trilogy.
He was fine, his acting was spot on it wasn't the character that was the let down look at the bigger picture it was the *DIRECTORS WRITTERS PRODUCER* not him self or his character kylo/Ben 😎👍👍👍
adam is the most attractive guy I've ever seen
u must not see many guys then lol but hes not bad looking.
Travis Lavanway I’ve seen plenty of guys and yet adam is the most drop dead gorgeous man I’ve ever seen in my life
sam was in before the rise of skywalker hype
You gotta love Adam Driver! He played Kylo Ren so incredibly good. The character is so genius in that he is so fragile, so.. insecure. Love it!
I'm about to see it for a fifth time LOVE THIS MOVE ! And for me he was the best thing about it :)
+Yekay yeke Yeah he was the best thing IMO. Can't wait for episode 8.
what a nice down to earth guy
The light still calls to him ...
3:53 All the Kylo Ren light saber wrecking console tantrums helped him vent his aggression! ;-)
He's a great actor. Superb performance as Kylo Ren. Wonderful wonderful person.
Little did they realize that he's fuckin Kylo Ren!
2:23 ❤️
the actor was is a vet for those who didnt know , he was discharged for medical purposes
Ok but I love his wife and him. They are such a power duo.
For those that don't know, Adam Driver is a former marine
Joanne looks like the kind of professor I’d love to have in my life. Amazing woman
adam you're the best
"BEN!"
Ben Solo!!
Huh, in the thumbnail shot he looks like a young Steve coogan
Once a Marine, always a Marine, right?
Sith are recounting the American armed forces now?, lol who would you rather fight for Snoke or Obama?
Holy shit. Kylo Ren in the flesh !
KYLO REN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is gonna kill them watch out
Kylo Ren 😕
Darth Doodie
Stop with the excerpts already. ugggggggggghhhh
is that jessica from american pie movies?
better than the prequels right? oh fuck yeah!
Marine turned actor. Cool guy! I feel like he's a very down-to-earth person.
I think he mentioned in an interview once that he was a timid shy guy with no social skills whatsoever. So he took some acting lessons and somehow he ended up as a famous actor lol
+JT84_456 Not only that, but a Juilliard trained one too.
+JT84_456 he never got deployed tho.
+X Z Seng still trained!
+X Z Seng So?
I also love that he's doing this with his wife they seem so down to earth and seem to work so well with each other
yeesssss!!!
"I think it's too dark." I think Kylo Ren would disagree.
this made me laugh :)
Renata Miles same
I don't care what anyone says... THAT is a beautiful man.
LOL IS IT GONNA BE BETTER THAN THE PREQUELS "ADAM: Oh uh Fuck Yeah"

incoming Kylo Ren comments
Nothing will stand in their way.
I guess Kylo Ren has a military background! Pew pew! And Adam Driver seems like a really cool guy, not like the Sith at all!
that awkward moment when the scariest dude in the new star wars movie actually seems like a really nice and awesome person
"Is it better than the prequels?"
"Oh FUCK yeah!"
I was dead at that moment
This is why schools need to continue the arts! A creative outlet is another way to describe thoughts and emotions.
This is what Kylo Ren gets up to in his spare time, theatre performances
Now it's here somewhere..........?!?.......where is it??..........?!?!?.....where did i put it?.........Han Solo's invite to the theater performance show is definitely here somewhere?!?.........?!?....
so by day he is this. and by night he is a bloodthirsty sith Lord hunting jedi and innocents............
