San Diego, California, USA:
Adam Driver (nato il 19 novembre 1983 a San Diego, in California) è un attore statunitense che si è distinto per le sue interpretazioni intense e per la capacità di passare con naturalezza da ruoli drammatici a personaggi più ironici e complessi. Dopo aver prestato servizio nel Corpo dei Marines degli Stati Uniti, studiò recitazione alla Juilliard School di New York, diplomandosi nel 2009. Raggiunse la notorietà grazie al ruolo di Adam Sackler nella serie Girls (2012-2017), che gli valse tre candidature consecutive agli Emmy. Nel frattempo iniziò a farsi notare anche al cinema, recitando in Lincoln (2012) e A proposito di Davis (2013). La fama internazionale arrivò con il personaggio di Kylo Ren nella trilogia sequel di Star Wars, composta da Il risveglio della Forza (2015), Gli ultimi Jedi (2017) e L'ascesa di Skywalker (2019). Parallelamente, Driver ha scelto ruoli molto diversi tra loro, lavorando con registi come Jim Jarmusch in Paterson (2016), Martin Scorsese in Silence (2016) e Spike Lee in BlacKkKlansman (2018), film che gli è valso una candidatura all'Oscar come miglior attore non protagonista. Nel 2019 ha ottenuto una seconda candidatura agli Oscar, questa volta come miglior attore protagonista, per Storia di un matrimonio, al fianco di Scarlett Johansson. Tra i suoi lavori successivi figurano Annette (2021), House of Gucci (2021), Rumore bianco (2022), The Last Duel (2021) e Ferrari (2023), nel quale ha interpretato Enzo Ferrari. Nel 2014 aveva inoltre vinto la Coppa Volpi per la migliore interpretazione maschile alla Mostra del cinema di Venezia per Hungry Hearts. Accanto al cinema, Driver ha continuato a coltivare il teatro e ha cofondato l'organizzazione no-profit Arts in the Armed Forces, dedicata alla diffusione delle arti performative nelle comunità militari. La sua carriera è caratterizzata dalla scelta di progetti molto diversi, spesso lontani dai ruoli convenzionali delle grandi produzioni hollywoodiane.
