Lena Dunham announces there will be a Girls movie

Even though we are still anticipating the final season of Girls to premiere on HBO on February 12, we were super excited to hear that Lena Dunham has said she has every intention of creating a Girls movie.

Thank goodness for that, because we are almost certain that we are going to binge watch the entire season of Girls and then feel sad that we have nothing more to look forward to.

‘Oh, we’re doing the movie,’ she told The Hollywood Reporter. ‘I’d just want to leave enough space so that we are finding them in a super different place than we left them.’

Jenni Konner, the executive producer for the show, agreed with Dunham that waiting was key. ‘We feel like no-one necessarily needs to hear from us right now. But if someone wants to do the movie, we’ll do it.’ And we are sure someone will! 

‘If HBO paid for two Sex and the City ones, they’d better pay for one of ours,’ Dunham joked.

We have no doubt that the success of the show will mean that a movie will be in hot demand, but we hope the wait for it won’t be too long! Dunham is a witty genius, and we will lap up anything more she has to offer.
