"A reporter asked Adam Driver about Lena Dunham's memoir Famesick, which details his erratic and occasionally violent behavior on the set of Girls. Did anyone really think this was a question that Driver, one of the most private actors of our time, would respond to in earnest? Probably not, but it was worth a shot. "I have no comment on any of that," he said, shaking his head. "I'm saving it all for my book.""
"That's a great bit, and I'm literally laughing and smiling at the thought of an Adam Driver-penned book and how proud he seems to be to respond in such a succinct, clever way. But also: Adam Driver, please write a book. You are one of the least knowable and weirdest people in Hollywood. You were in the Marines and you went to Juilliard. You were in HBO's Girls!"
"Maybe if Driver wrote a book, we'd finally understand what the hell was going on in . If Famesick accomplished anything ( and honestly, it accomplished a lot), it was that Dunham made Driver seem all the more mysterious and compelling. Him writing a book would probably undo that, which is why it'll never happen, but we can always hope."
"Adam Driver responds in #Cannes to Lena Dunham's memoir, which alleges he was "verbally aggressive" and "hurled a chair at the wall next" to her on the "Girls" set. "I have no comment on any of that. I'm saving it all for my book.""
A reporter asked Adam Driver about Lena Dunham’s memoir Famesick, which describes his alleged erratic and occasionally violent behavior on the set of Girls. Driver responded by shaking his head and saying he had no comment on the claims. He added that he was saving everything for his book. The response is framed as a succinct, clever way to avoid engaging directly with the allegations. The idea of Driver writing a book is presented as appealing because it could clarify his public persona, while also being seen as something that might reduce his mystery and appeal.
