He looks Balkan to me with some western European mix
 
I don't think he looks Balkan at all. He looks exactly what he is: Northwest European.

The first image that popped into my mind was Sir Francis Walsingham, the spymaster of Elizabeth I.

That's not quite right, though. Diver's features are more southwestern Germanic or Swiss German, perhaps. Put a beard on him and he wouldn't look out of place among the Amish. That's it; that's what's always niggled at the back of my mind when I looked at him.

Just darken his hair and eyes.

For what it's worth, I think Diver is an excellent actor.

I know some Serbian people that look somewhat like him.I would mostly say hes some form of western Euro and the Amish part isnt that far
 
I think he looks off for Western Europe, and indeed i can see him more as Balkanian than Western European.
 
He looks like an unusual mixture of dark central European types with nordic robustness.
 
He's probably a typical white American of mixed European ethnicity.
 
I decided to look it up:

"Driver was born on November 19, 1983,[5] in San Diego, California,[6] the son of Nancy Wright (née Needham), a paralegal, and Joe Douglas Driver.[7][8] He has Dutch, English, German, Irish and Scottish ancestry."

Needham is derived from Needham England, and Driver is derived from a Dutch name.

As I said: mainly Northwest European.

I have no idea why anyone would think there aren't dark Northwest Europeans.
 
OK? but I could have thought in somebody with some Hungarian touch too... Everyone can mistake! LOL
 
OK.

Tried this site. Maybe 4, 14, 33?

How much German is in Hungarians, anyway? A lot of them look like southern Germans to me.

Imo, Mawle is still closer, just lighter. Also, better looking. To be honest, charming as I find him to be, and great actor, Adam Driver has a bit of a hodge-podge irregular face, which would fit with being generally "American mutt".
 
I was not thinking in a "mean" Hungarian (if there is something like that!) or "typical" Hungarian but I think some associations of traits can be more easily found among Hungarian, people of overwhelmingly 'Europoid' dominance but with some extra exotic traits found more often among East-Central Europeans.
 
Thanks for the docs, and yes, they show their complicated ethnogenesis on external features, sometimes.

In this photo he has a little bit of a Afghanistan look. Only his outer face shape is off for there. The last photo i am referring to.

I'd say central Asian mixed with Western European.

Great. Except that isn't his ancestry by any stretch of the imagination had you read all the posts.
 
West European people are quite mixed actually.

Indeed, but France and Germany and Great Britain, countries from which he draws his genetic ancestry, are not 50% Central Asian, or probably not even a few percent Central Asian.

When you get admixture from a lot of countries, even if they are all northwestern or western Europeans, a sort of "pseudo" similarity can show in your appearance.

That may be what Calf is seeing, although I don't see it at all myself.

I just see a rather funny looking American "mutt", as I said.
