Most of us know Adam Driver for the HBO show "Girls" or the Batman Vs. Superman rumors. It seems his star is on the rise as Disney/Lucasfilm are allegedly very close to signing him to play the lead villain in Star Wars: Episode VII. The character is described as "being in the vein of Darth Vader". It is possible that this is the reason he turned down Batman Vs Superman, but who knows? How do you feel about this news?
