With the release of the VII episode of the ultra-famous and successful movie franchise "Star Wars," there has been a lot of question longtime fans have for the director of the film, J.J. Abrams. Questions linger about the characters and the scenes in "Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens" that includes as to why one of the most important and pivotal character in the film, Ben Solo, went to the dark side.
Ben Solo, the son of "Star Wars" hero and heroine, Han Solo and Princess Leia Organa as seen in the film, was under the order of First Order Supreme Leader Snoke. Fans of "Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens" have questions as to how and why this happened.
Now that the Blu-Ray copy of "Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens" has been released, another film came with the Blu-Ray copy and this is a feature-length documentary "Secrets of The Force Awakens: A Cinematic Journey." On this documentary, Ben Solo a.k.a. Kylo Ren actor Adam Driver revealed why Ben Solo went to the dark side.
According to Adam Driver,it all fell down to the neglect he felt from his parents and that maybe he was not given the love he thought he deserved in "Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens."
"If you really imagine the stakes of him in his youth, having all these special powers and having your parents kind of be absent during that process on their own agendas, equally as selfish," Adam Driver stated. "He's lost in the world that he was raised in, and feels that he was kind of abandoned by the people that he's closest with. He's angry because of that, I think, and he has a huge grudge on his shoulders."
It was also said that Kylo Ren, formerly known as Ben Solo, was under the training eye of his Uncle, Luke Skywalker to become a Jedi when he turned to the dark side in "Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens." Kylo Ren must have been phenomenally ignored throughout his life.
