Lena Dunham says she and Adam Driver have a pact that if she watches Star Wars, he’s finally going to watch Girls.
“The funny thing is I’ve never actually seen Star Wars,” Dunham recently told me. “I understand that this is a huge cultural phenomenon but I get none of the references. As a young woman growing up in New York City it’s actually not that hard to avoid Star Wars. It’s not that hard to move out of Star Wars circles.
But then Driver landed a part in director J.J. Abrams’ upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII.
