Although the next Michael Mann biopic will soon see him at the reins of the prestigious Ferrari team, American actor Adam Driver, only 40 years old, can already boast a rich and varied career. The man, who has in turn worked with Martin Scorsese, Spike Lee and Ridley Scott, is also (perhaps primarily) known to the general public for playing the dark Kylo Ren in the latest Star Wars trilogy.
