The face with Adam Driver.

We had a 10-minute chat with the actor about the pitfalls of fame and Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis.

What can you tell us about Megalopolis?

It’s kind of undefinable, which feels very general until you watch the movie. Then my answer will be perfect. There’s not a lot of precedent for it and it’s wild on a big scale, which is what’s really unique about it.


In the film, you play renegade architect Caesar. Can you describe him in one sentence?

He’s a visionary. He’s very much Francis [Ford Coppola], in a way, where he’s investigated every way of how people can do something and is trying not to get stuck on the right answer. That’s an idea that’s moving to me – and one that reflects Francis.
