Lena Dunham's take on international finance will be 'The Wolf of Wall Street' meets 'Melrose Place'
Lena Dunham is directing and executive producing a new, eight-part HBO series called “Industry,” the actress and director tweeted on Friday, which will feature a group of twentysomethings competing for positions at an investment bank in London. Dunham described it as “The Wolf of Wall Street” meets “Melrose Place.”

Her character Hannah infamously described herself as “the voice of my generation. Or, a generation.”
