The Kylo Ren depicter reveals one scene that 'Star Wars' fans always bring up when they meet him following his performances as the villain in the new movies.

AceShowbiz - Adam Driver gets reminded "every day" that he killed Han Solo. The 40-year-old actor played Kylo Ren in the final "Star Wars" trilogy and though it has been eight years since his villainous alter ego murdered his dad - who was played by Harrison Ford - in 2015's "Star Wars: The Force Awakens", fans still want to talk about it.
"Somebody reminds me about that every day. 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," Adam said during an appearance on "Who's Talking to Chris Wallace" when the host mentioned the movie's shocking ending.
Adam reflected on filming the scene, and admitted it wasn't necessarily "tough" but it was "very emotional actually" and he praised his "generous" co-star for guiding him through the moment. He said, "Harrison was so generous and contemplative, and to me, that was a great moment on set, even though it was his death."
The "Marriage Story" actor previously admitted he "felt sick to [his] stomach" when he went to the "Force Awakens" and sat waiting for the audience to see the dramatic finale.
He told GQ magazine in 2017, "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. 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?"
