Kylo Ren doesn’t need redemption, says Adam Driver
Will Kylo Ren find some sort of redemption? That’s one of the many lingering questions moviegoers will carry into Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Well, according the man himself, actor Adam Driver, who has portrayed the character in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, the answer is no — the man who killed Han Solo does not need a redemptive finale, but only because he might have already had one.
While speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Driver pointed out that Kylo Ren sees the world from a different perspective, and in so doing has made decisions based on his personal world view.
“[Kylo Ren] has a different identity, a different definition of what redemption is,” Driver explained. “He’s already been redeemed in his story. I don’t think there is a thought of redemption. He doesn’t have an outside lens of the events, you know — you know what I mean? That’s more of an outsider’s view of his world.”
That’s certainly an interesting perspective. What do you think? Does Kylo Ren need to find some sort of redemption? Is the freshly-minted Supreme Leader of the First Order too far gone to be redeemed having killed Han Solo and contributed to the deaths of billions across the galaxy?
