HBO's hit series Girls is returning for a limited run of five episodes nearly a decade after its finale in 2017. The revival was announced on October 13, 2026, with the original cast members, including Lena Dunham, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, and Zosia Mamet, participating in a mock Zoom call to express their excitement about reuniting for the show. Production is set to begin in 2027. While it remains unclear whether star Adam Driver will join his costars, Judd Apatow, who helped bring the series to HBO initially, will return as executive producer. Dunham emphasized that this reunion would only happen if there was a specific story they felt compelled to tell, highlighting her gratitude for the opportunity to revisit the characters with new insights and understanding.
