What were Lena Dunham's claims about Girls co-star Adam Driver?
Lena Dunham accused the Megalopolis star of being rude to her during their first sex scene. He “hurled me this way and that”, she wrote in her memoir. She didn't feel “violated,” but she felt she had “lost directorial authority”.
Dunham also mentioned that Adam ”hurled a chair at the wall next to me” when he was angry at her for forgetting her lines during a rehearsal, and used foul language.
This reportedly happened on the sets of their hit show, Girls, which ran for six seasons from 2012 until 2017. The show follows a self-obsessed writer and her boyfriend, named Adam (played by Driver), and their toxic relationship. Apart from starring in the show, Dunham also wrote and directed it.
