"I'm the 'next Lena Dunham,' 'the 'English Amy Schumer,' the 'next Sharon Horgan,' " Waller-Bridge, 31, says with a shrug. "I've basically been linked to every other woman who's written about sex. No guy is ever the 'new Will Ferrell' -- he's just a comedian. I guess it's indicative of it being quite a small pool."
