Star Wars director Rian Johnson has just joined the conversation surrounding the scrapped film The Hunt for Ben Solo, which would have seen Adam Driver starring in his own solo film as Kylo Ren. The actor himself revealed last month that Disney rejected the idea, arguing that "they didn't see how Ben Solo was alive" after the events of The Rise of Skywalker.
Since details of this project were revealed, some fans have been asking Disney to reconsider, with one fan even paying for an actual banner campaigning for the film's release that flew in the sky above Disney Studios in California with the hashtag #SaveTheHuntForBenSolo. Other Star Wars fans have noted that multiple Star Wars characters have died and returned, including Palpatine, so there could be a way to move the idea forward.
