‘Girls’: Creator Lena Dunham Teases Possible Spin-Off!!

Lena Dunham is back with a brand new show! The Too Much creator worked with her husband, Luis Felber, to tell a fictionalized version of their love story in the new Netflix series. But Dunham has also been answering questions about her first beloved series: Girls. The HBO comedy featured Dunham as Hannah, a young woman living in New York City trying to figure out her life. Which did include dating Adam (Adam Driver) and some “good soup.” One of the most beloved characters on the series, though, is Shoshanna, played by Zosia Mamet.

When talking with the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Dunham spoke about a character from Girls she loved the most and who she’d want to revisit in a spin-off series. “I love Shoshanna,” she said. “I am on record as saying she is my favorite girl… I think Shoshanna is going places.Dunham praised Mamet for her work on the series, saying she was “such a joy to watch” throughout the show’s run and even went on to tease the possibility of a future with Shoshanna.

So if there was like the right context for us to do it, I’d be f—— thrilled,” she said. “And also to do anything with her…we’ve all just kicked around jokingly where they would be now. She’d be so brilliant at revisiting it, and I just miss it and I miss her,” Dunham said, hinting that she’d be “in” if a spin-off came to be.

Zosia Mamet Has Been Trying To Get Lena Dunham To Bring Shoshanna Back

Mamet was also on the podcast earlier this year when she revealed that she’d been pushing for a series as well. “I’m trying to get Lena to write a Shosh spin-off,” she told the podcast. “I’ve been, like, slowly working on her. We’ll see. She seems receptive.” The ending of Girls left Shoshanna’s life a bit up in the air with a proposal to a man that fans hadn’t yet met. So there is the potential there for something fun and whether that means that Hannah, Marnie (Allison Williams), and Jessa (Jemima Kirke) make an appearance is up in the air. But the fact that Dunham‘s new series is at 83% on Rotten Tomatoes with a Fresh score might lead to more projects for the actor, writer, and director.
