‘I’d love to do it’
Lena Dunham recently shared it SiriusXM’s “Radio Andy” that she has an idea for a ‘Girls’ movie. She also shared that she created a group chat with the original cast, where they talked about reuniting when the hit HBO drama is “appropriately missed.”
“I would love to do it, and I have to say I have a little storyline in mind. I do,” Dunham said. “It’s impossible not to think about where they are now. I’ll text with – I have a new chain with the girls and Andrew [Rannells] called ‘Survivors of the Crack Cident.’ Jemima [Kirke] will come in with the best version of, like, “Jess really likes RFK Jr.” and you say, ‘Of course she is. Of course she is.’ She doesn’t want anyone to get vaccines. She is angry.”
She added, “I just see them, and they’re my muses too. So I think it’s obvious. We don’t want to come back to the party too early. We want to be missed appropriately.”
“Girls” aired for 62 episodes over six seasons on HBO from 2012 to 2017. Dunham created the show and starred alongside Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, Adam Driver, Zosia Mamet, Alex Karpovsky and Andrew Rannells. “Girls” was nominated for 19 Emmys and won two during its run.
“Well, there’s a ‘Girls’ movie, HBO Max!” Dunham joked. “I would be very happy.”
Dunham recently published her book “Famesick,” which chronicles her life and struggles as she rose to fame in her early 20s. In the book, she wrote that her “Girls” co-star Driver was “verbally aggressive, condescending and physically imposing” during filming.
