Lena Dunham as an honorary Gladiator?!
E! News has confirmed that the Girls creator and star is set to guest-star on an upcoming episode of Scandal. No, this is not a drill–it’s real life and it’s awesome.
While details are being kept under wraps (Isn’t that the Scandal way?), we do know Dunham’s one-time appearance will go down in one of the ABC hit’s March episodes. EW.com first reported the news of Dunham’s guest appearance.
While some might find it a little weird to see Dunham on Scandal, Taylor Swift ‘s BFF has made no secret of her desire to appear on Shonda Rhimes’ show.
Dunham said during an interview with Grantland’s B.S. Report, “Basically, my life’s great passion is the idea of being a guest star on Scandal. I want to be like, a senator who did something wrong.” And while she did say she might be too young to play a senator, she said, “playing a really evil character, it would be really fun.”
Fingers crossed she gets her wish!
