Adam Driver revealed that he and director Steven Soderbergh spent two years developing a follow-up to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker called The Hunt for Ben Solo, which was ultimately rejected by Disney. The project was pitched to key Lucasfilm executives, and Driver expressed interest in continuing his character’s story due to the perceived unfinished business after his character's death in the 2019 film. Despite the team's enthusiasm and a compelling script, Disney's top executives decided against the project, stating they couldn't understand how the character could return. This rejection came as Lucasfilm plans to move in a different direction with the franchise, focusing on new stories and characters.

Will there be more Star Wars movies featuring Kylo Ren?

No, Disney has officially rejected the idea of any future projects centered around Kylo Ren, including The Hunt for Ben Solo, which Adam Driver and Soderbergh had worked on. Future Star Wars movies are set to explore new characters and narratives.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker marked the conclusion of the Sequel Trilogy, which has been a topic of division among fans. The trilogy aimed to bring new characters to the forefront while continuing the legacy of beloved ones. However, Disney's direction following the Sequel Trilogy has led to an exploration of spin-offs like The Mandalorian and upcoming films featuring different protagonists. As Lucasfilm moves forward, fans await to see how these new narratives unfold in the iconic franchise.
