Lena Dunham Praises Adam Driver’s Film ‘Misty Green’

“This f—ing movie wrecked me in the best way,” Dunham wrote, describing the film as “Cassavettes meets The Comeback by way of @chrisrock” and “a rare thing of beauty and pain.” She tagged Chris Rock, who directed the movie. Dunham did not name Driver in her post.

“Misty Green” stars Rosalind Eleazar, known for “Slow Horses,” as a woman trying to revive her Hollywood career. Driver plays Zach, who draws her back into drugs and bad decisions. The film is among two Driver releases scheduled for the latter half of 2026; the other is James Gray’s crime drama “Paper Tiger,” due for a limited theatrical release on November 13 and a wider release on November 20.

Driver has said he will not return for the final five episodes of “Girls.” Asked by CinemaBlend about coming back, he replied, “Nope,” then added, “I wish them the best of luck.” He also declined to address Dunham’s allegations at Cannes, where he was promoting “Paper Tiger,” saying, “I have no comment on any of that,” and joking, “I’m saving that all for my book.”

In her memoir, Dunham alleged that Driver screamed in her face, threw a chair in her direction and punched a hole in his trailer wall after she forgot her lines. In an interview with The Guardian, she said he could be “spectacularly rude” to her. Driver has not publicly responded to the allegations in detail. Dunham has said she has not spoken with him since filming “Girls” ended, though it is unclear whether they have since reconnected privately.
