After listening to a clip from Marriage Story, Adam Driver suddenly walked out of an interview.

Adam Driver is absolutely everywhere at the moment.

The 36-year-old actor, who is currently promoting a slew of new movies, has been the subject of countless interviews in the last month.

But while promoting Netflix’s Marriage Story, Stars Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Amazon’s The Report, there was one interview that didn’t make it’s way to air.

According to a Daily Beast report, the actor walked out of a radio interview at NPR when Fresh Air host Terry Gross played a clip of one of Driver’s scenes from Marriage Story.

Take a look at the trailer for Netflix’s new must-watch movie Marriage Story below. Post continues after video.

According to the publication, Driver left NPR’s offices mid-interview after the radio show played a clip of the actor singing ‘Being Alive’ in Marriage Story.

“We don’t really understand why he left,” the executive producer of Fresh Air, Danny Miller, told Daily Beast in a statement.

“We were looking forward to the interview – Terry thinks he’s a terrific actor, he was a great guest when he was on [Fresh Air] in 2015 – so we were disappointed that we didn’t have a new interview to share with our listeners about Marriage Story,” he added.

“We knew from our previous interview with Adam Driver that he does not enjoy listening back to clips of his movies (that isn’t unusual, a lot of actors feel that way). So Terry invited him to take off his headphones while we played back the 20-second clip, and that our engineer in New York would cue him to put his headphones back on after the clip ended (we also did this during our 2015 interview).

“But this time around, after the clip concluded we were informed by our engineer in NY that he had walked out of the studio, and then left the building. We still don’t understand why Adam Driver chose to leave the interview at that point.”

Although the sudden exit may have seemed odd to some, Driver has frequently opened up about his displeasure with watching or listening to his own performances.

In fact, in an interview with Fresh Air in 2015, Driver explicitly told Gross that he "hates" listening to or watching himself.

At the time, Gross mentioned an audio clip, which Driver declined to listen to.

"I don't want to hear the bad acting that probably was happening during that clip," Driver said at the time.

"I've watched myself or listened to myself before, then always hate it," he added.

"And then wish I could change it, but you can't. And I think I have, like, a tendency to try to make things better or drive myself and the other people around me crazy with the things I wanted to change or I wish I could change."

In a New Yorker profile on Driver, which was published in October, the actor's displeasure with watching himself was likened to a "phobia".

According to the profile, Driver was "mortified" when he first saw himself in Girls on Lena Dunham's laptop.

"That's when I was, like, I can't watch myself in things. I certainly can't watch this if we're going to continue doing it," he said.

For several years, Driver swore off watching his own movies, until he was obliged to sit through the premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens in 2015.

"I just went totally cold," he told the New Yorker.

"I knew the scene was coming up where I had to kill Han Solo, and people were, like, hyperventilating when the title came up, and I felt like I had to puke."

In the interview, Driver also recalled hiding in a green room during a screening of Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansmen at Cannes Film Festival before returning for the closing bow.

Steven Soderbergh, the director of Logan Lucky told The New Yorker that he sympathised with the actor.

"I think he's rightly concerned that he would become conscious of himself in a way that would be harmful to his acting," he said.

Since the news of Driver's interview broke, some fans have been critical of his decision to walk out.

Are you kidding me?? #AdamDriver walked out of an interview because they played a clip of his performance and he doesn’t like to hear himself?! Grow tf up. It’s hard enough interviewing fucking actors and you make it MORE awkward?! ????

So Adam Driver left an NPR radio interview after Terry Gross played a clip from Marriage Story. He supposedly has a phobia of hearing himself or seeing himself act....

Adam....buddy....sir....question.

WHY THE FUCK DID YOU BECOME AN ACTOR IN THE FIRST PLACE???

#AdamDriver I’m sorry?!?!? Walking out of an interview promoting your movies because you don’t like hearing yourself. Come the fuuuuuuuuck on for real dude. Jesus for fuck sake

Why is #AdamDriver in so many films? He has no screen presence, versatility (same monotone delivery in everything, from #MarriageStory to #StarWars), and walks out of interviews for playing clips of his movies! I hope the infinitely better Joaquin Phoenix wins Best Actor over him pic.twitter.com/olOc70vohu

On the other hand, however, the majority have argued that Driver was well within his right to exit the situation.

Seeing so many snide tweets about this. If the man has anxiety or a phobia then let him do whatever he needs to do. Being a famous actor doesn’t mean you don’t have mental health needs just like everyone else. He wasn’t rude to anyone, he was just anxious. https://t.co/b6xx864bQF

You can be a military veteran and still suffer debilitating anxiety.

You can be a renowned actor and still suffer debilitating anxiety.

You can do regular interviews and still suffer debilitating anxiety.

Folks criticizing Adam Driver apparently don’t understand any of this.

For those saying Adam Driver should “toughen up”:

1. Dude goes without watching Star Wars, so I’d say it’s a pretty legit phobia of seeing himself perform. Star Wars!

2. He is a Marine, so I’d say he’s plenty tough.

Y'all need to leave Adam Driver alone. He experienced some mental discomfort during an interview and removed himself from the situation. He took care of himself in that moment. He didn't insult or offend or hurt anyone. We shouldn't stigmatize mental health like this.

When Adam Driver went on Fresh Air in 2015, he made it clear that he didn’t like to see or hear his recorded performances. Yet Terry Gross insisted on playing a clip from Marriage Story during their latest interview. So I say good on him for walking out of the studio.

Driver is currently starring in Stars Wars: The Rise of Skywalker as Kylo Ren and Noah Baumbach’s highly anticipated Netflix film Marriage Story.

Marriage Story, which stars Scarlett Johansson as Nicole and Adam Driver as Charlie, follows a married couple as they navigate divorce while co-parenting their young son.
