Fans Rally for 'The Hunt for Ben Solo' Project with New York City Billboard

Fans of the "Star Wars" franchise are advocating for Disney to reconsider their decision to shelve the potential project "The Hunt for Ben Solo" with a new billboard in New York City. The billboard, located at 1500 Broadway, features the message "For Adam. No one's ever really gone. Hope lives. Ben is alive! #THBS." The project, which would have followed Ben Solo on a quest for redemption after "The Rise of Skywalker," was developed with director Steven Soderbergh and screenwriter Rebecca Blunt. Adam Driver expressed his interest in reprising his role as Ben Solo in the film, but the project was ultimately rejected by Lucasfilm executives Bob Iger and Alan Bergman. Soderbergh confirmed the existence of the project and expressed regret that fans will not get to see it.
