The actor had been in Europe filming a movie and worked right up until the big day.
When he arrived, someone he worked with gave him the bad news.

“I get to my house.
I said, ‘Where are the presents?’
And he said, ‘They didnt get here,'” Affleck told Kimmel.
“So I had to show up to my sons party with no gift.
It was this sort of sinking, awful feeling.”
Don’t worry, the story gets better.
Earlier in the interview, Affleck talked about why Driver’s gesture was extra special.
“But he also knows thatStar Warsis real.
“He was like, ‘But dad!
How do you know Kylo?
Are you going to space?’
Fast forward to the party, when the special moment unfolded.
“I watched him open up all the presents.
And I said, ‘My presents didnt get here on time,'” Affleck recalled.
And he goes, ‘Who?’
And I said, ‘Kylo Ren.’
Thus, Affleck’s son got to live out every eight-year-old’s dream.
