Lena Dunham recently told SiriusXMโs โRadio Andyโ that she has an idea for a โGirlsโ movie. She also shared that she made a group chat with the original cast, in which theyโve discussed reuniting when the hit HBO drama is โappropriately missed.โ
โI would love to do it, and I have to say, I got a little plot line in my brain. I do,โ Dunham said. โItโs impossible not to think about where they are now. I will text withโI have a new chain with the girls and Andrew [Rannells] called โSurvivors of the Crackcident.โ Jemima [Kirke] will pop in with the best take on like, โJess is really into RFK Jr.โ and youโre like, โOf course she is. Of course she is.โ She does not want anyone getting vaccines. She is pissed.โ
She added, โI just see them, and also, those are my muses. So, I think itโs an obvious thing. We donโt want to come back to the party too early. We want to be appropriately missed.โ
โGirlsโ ran for 62 episodes across 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. โGirlsโ was nominated for 19 Emmys and won two during its run.
โWell, thereโs a โGirlsโ movie, HBO Max!โ Dunham joked. โI would be delighted.โ
Dunham recently published her book โFamesick,โ which chronicles her life and struggles as she rose to fame in her early 20s. In the book, she wrote that her โGirlsโ co-star Driver was โverbally aggressive, condescending and physically imposingโ while filming.
