J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker will make its premiere around a month from now. And since the film will wrap up the previous movies in the franchise along with the Skywalker Saga, this is likely the last time fans will be able to see their favorite characters. Adam Driver, who plays the role of Kylo Ren in Episode IX, shares his keepsake from the set when they wrapped up the movie production.

Driver recently made an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Since details are supposed to be kept under wraps, the Marriage Story actor had to be tight-lipped about the upcoming movie. Colbert asked, "What's it like to hang up your lightsaber?" Driver responded with a short and simple answer, "Good, good."

He didn't go further into details, but he claims that he literally has the lightsaber and is hang up. "It's in a box, but it's hung in the box," he adds. He didn't stop there though, the actor revealed that he asked for permission from Abrams in order to keep some of his stuff fro, the set. He admits that he took "a lot of stuff" this time around. Driver claims he even has the whole costume. You can check out his full interview below.

It's unfortunate that he didn't talk about the movie that much. But it is understandable since it's better to keep information regarding The Rise of Skywalker a secret for now, so as not to accidentally spoil anything in the process. After all, Star Wars fans will only have to wait for a month now, and until then, they'd have to be patient to find out what happens in the movie.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker premieres on December 20.
