Lena Dunham has been cut from Seth Rogen's upcoming Neighbors sequel.

The actress and writer revealed her scene for Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising will no longer appear in the movie in a note to fans on Instagram on Monday (04Apr16).



Posting a photograph of herself dressed up to look like historical heroine Joan of Arc, Lena wrote: "Throwback to when I played the role of Joan of Arc in Neighbors 2."


The 29-year-old Girls creator and star added, "I ended up on the cutting room floor so you won’t see my scene in the film, but it was all worth it for these blade hands and the chance to rewrite history as a Joan who jumps off the flaming pyre and guts a lot of men."


And it appears she's far from upset about missing out on a film credit, adding, "I can’t wait for this movie."


Rogen, Zac Efron and Rose Byrne return for the film, which also features Chloe Grace Moretz.
