Actor Adam Driver responds to questions at the Cannes Film Festival about claims made by Lena Dunham in her new memoir, “Famesick.” Multiple outlets report that during a press conference in Cannes for his film “Paper Tiger,” Driver was asked about Dunham’s account of his behavior while they worked together on HBO’s “Girls.” Dunham’s memoir includes allegations that Driver was verbally aggressive, condescending, and physically imposing on set, including specific descriptions of a difficult first intimacy scene and other behind-the-scenes incidents.
According to the coverage, Driver does not address the substance of the allegations. He says he has “no comment on any of that” and adds that he is “saving it all” for a future book of his own. The exchange is reported as brief and drew laughter from attendees.
The articles collectively frame Driver’s remarks as an effort to deflect repeated questions about the memoir while he promotes “Paper Tiger” at Cannes. Dunham’s memoir is described as driving renewed attention to the “Girls” production and the reported personal dynamic between the two creators.
