Back in August we wrote about luxury fashion brand Burberry’s latest ad  for its new men’s fragrance Burberry Hero. The commercial starred “it” man/heartthrob/villain Adam Driver (Girls, Star Wars) as he keeps pace alongside a galloping palomino on the beach before both man and beast dive into the water.

The video went viral and became so meme-worthy there’s even a site compiling the best ones. Now, Driver has spoken out for the first time about the video and his relationship with horses.

In an interview with Vogue magazine, Driver admits to not being on an “Errol Flynn” level of riding prowess. But filming the ad wasn’t his first rodeo, either.
