'Girls' star Lena Dunham says she doesn't have passion for acting anymore.
The 27-year-old actress, who also created the American TV show, said she doesn't love performing as much as she does standing behind the camera and watching other people perform, reported Contactmusic.
"I don't know if I'm going to want to act any more. I'm always relieved on the days I don't have to. I'd rather give parts to other women than be the woman having the parts," she said.
Meanwhile, the actress said her relationship with boyfriend Jack Antonoff works really well because he accepted her with her 'baggage'.
"The dialogue around the show 'Girl' already existed, so it was sort of clear to him what the baggage of dating me was going to be," she added.
