Actor Adam Driver says the biggest change in his life since he played Kylo Ren in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is that he now gets stopped for photos by lots of children.

The 32-year-old actor played lightsaber-wielding villain Kylo Ren in the sci-fi blockbuster and is reprising the part in "Star Wars: Episode VIII".

Since he donned Kylo's black mask and cape, Driver gets recognised a lot more by children when he's out in public but he's more than happy to oblige his young fans' requests for pictures, reported Entertainment Weekly.

"Kids are a big thing (now): I feel like before parents kept me away from their kids; now it's like, 'Go get a picture.' "
 

Other than acquiring a young fan base, the "Girls" star insists nothing else has really changed in his life.
