Adam Driver walked out of an interview after the host played a clip of him singing in one of his latest films, it has been reported.
The Hollywood actor reportedly left the studio after a scene from Marriage Story in which he sang Being Alive was switched on.
Driver has previously admitted to having an aversion to looking back at his own past performances.
During an interview with National Public Radio's Fresh Air show in the US, host Terry Gross, who was in Philadelphia, is said to have played the scene to Driver, who was in a studio in New York.
In a statement, Fresh Air executive producer Danny Miller said the actor left the studio and walked out of the building while the clip was being played.
Miller said while it is commonplace to play clips during interviews, his team knew from previously working with Driver that he was uncomfortable listening to himself.
Gross invited him to take off his headphones during the song but was then told by an engineer in the New York office that Driver had left the building, according to Miller.
"We still don't understand why Adam Driver chose to leave the interview at that point," Miller added.
The interview was being recorded on December 10 and was scheduled for broadcast the next day.
Representatives of Driver have been contacted for comment.
Driver is the star of two of the year's most talked about movies - Netflix drama Marriage Story and Disney blockbuster Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker.
He has previously admitted to having an aversion to watching or listening to his own performances. In 2015 he told Fresh Air: "I've watched myself or listened to myself before, then always hate it.
"And then wish I could change it, but you can't. And I think I have, like, a tendency to try to make things better or drive myself and the other people around me crazy with the things I wanted to change or I wish I could change."
For the Noah Baumbach-directed Marriage Story, also starring Scarlett Johansson, Driver has been nominated for both a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award and is tipped for recognition at the Oscars.
