The fact that Adam Driver is not an 8/15 actor is shown in the interview he gave to the magazine. "Life is shit and we will all die, " says Adam Driver. "You have friends, and they too are dying, you're sick, someone you care about is getting sick, the Wall Street guys are shitting us all, the poor are getting poorer, the rich are getting richer, it's all around us Time."
"We do not know why we're here, no one gives us an answer, religion remains vague, even your parents can not help you, they're just human, it's bad and nothing makes sense, what a horrible starting point, um Every day, and then you go to sleep, but sometimes, things can get clearer for just a minute, and then we may find a connection. "
To steal philosophical statements as if they were nothing is just one of Adam Drivers features. With his wife he leads the charity organization "Arts in the Armed Forces, " which sends actors to military bases. Clear that Adam Driver wants to make up for his retirement from the Marines. Or as he puts it, "Like I just dropped everything and left to become a fucking actor."
Adam Driver shows personality. He is smart and polite. He takes care not to come over like a "damned presumptuous asshole". Sorry, Ryan Gosling, slip over, we have a new darling!
