After all, Lena Dunham has at times struggled to distinguish herself from her most famous creation. At the height of HBO’s “Girls,” the op-ed-generating machine that, incidentally, was a very good TV show, journalists wrote about and addressed Dunham as if she literally were the narcissistic writer she portrayed onscreen.

A general consensus seemed to have formed that Dunham could not possibly understand the ways in which Horvath was flawed and annoying — despite the fact that Dunham had written her. And, in the years after “Girls” wrapped up in 2017, Dunham struggled to step out of the show’s shadow with new work, in part due to medical and substance issues she documented in her recent memoir “Famesick.” Related Stories Danny Boyle Says ‘28 Years Later Part 3’ Will ‘Have a Lot of Cillian Murphy in It’ and Backs Jack O’Connell as the Next James Bond ‘Hatchet’ Movie: Netflix and Derek Cianfrance to Adapt Gary Paulsen’s Survival Book (EXCLUSIVE) As proven by “Famesick” and her 2025 Netflix series “Too Much” — a wistful, surprisingly mature story of attempting to move on from romantic disappointment — Dunham is in a different place now, and so, maybe, is her audience.

Her book was received with warm nostalgia and appreciation for Dunham’s lacerating understanding of herself and the web of misunderstandings that surround her. Popular on Variety So — while it’s obviously too early even to speculate about what a late-2020s “Girls” might look like, aside from its cast, with Dunham, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, Zosia Mamet and Andrew Rannells confirmed to return — there’s hope that it might cut through some of the clutter that came to define the show as it ran on.

It’s also reasonable to assume that “Girls” 2 might more fully reflect Dunham’s perspective than did the show we now remember fondly: Part of the tension and drama of “Famesick” is its depiction of “Girls” as the product of a vexed series of compromises with Dunham’s then-creative partner Jenni Konner, brought in to teach the raw writing-directing talent behind the indie film “Tiny Furniture” how to make conventionally structured TV. Judd Apatow returns to this iteration “Girls” as an executive producer, but Konner does not.

The Dunham-Konner breakup — Dunham’s side of which is painstakingly reconstructed in “Famesick” — lends the idea of a “Girls” revival an intriguingly meta aspect. Wherever Hannah is now, she’ll likely be written by a person newly working on her own terms.

(Along with co-writers, Dunham is credited as a writer on every episode of “Too Much,” which was not true of the first six seasons of “Girls.”) And the information Dunham has shared about her inner life lends the
