Lena Dunham has paid tribute to Nick Lashaway after he was killed in a car crash in Massachusetts on Sunday. He was 28-years-old.
The American actor appeared alongside Dunham in an episode of Girls, season two, where he played the role of Frank, Jessa’s stepbrother who sleeps with Dunham’s character Hannah.
He also had roles in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, The X-Files and The Last Song.
“Just heard the incredibly sad news that Nick Lashaway was killed in a car accident on 8 May,” wrote Dunham. “Nick was such a talented, funny and kind person and we were so lucky to have him as a part of our Girls family when he played Frank in episode 207.
“We will always remember the week we shared with him, his playful smile, his easy instincts, how much he made us laugh even when we had to stay up all night in the woods. We are sending love to his family and friends and feeling such gratitude for his gifts. RIP sweet Nick.”
