This is his "I am smiling" face. You don't get the real smile unless you shout "Semper Fi!" or if you're Joanne, he always has a sweet smile for his wife.
I love photos that have this particular lighting issue, though they usually end up as out-takes or just tossed entirely in favor of ones that are properly lit, because I'm a sucker for drama; it's almost like he's brooding at a window. The light just glows on the tiny folds in his irises, and throws all his moles, little facial scars, and skin textures into sharp relief, while shining off his whiskers, which were super glossy that night.
This was one of the last times we saw him in public (I'm pretty sure the last time was the Oscars, on 9 Feb) before the world locked down, and there are shockingly few good close-ups of Adam from this event. I wouldn't have found this one at all if The-Adam-Driver-Files hadn't RT'd it (thank you!).

7.5 hours of drawing time all told. I had toyed with the idea of a blue overlay for the background, but ditched it in the final version because I liked this better.
