MacBook Pro 16" need 1920x1080 display driver

I have a MacBook Pro with a 16 inch display. OS 15. I need to run it in 1920x1080. Is it possible to get a driver for this and what is the best one? Yes I expect it to be letterboxed, but I need this resolution for some specific software and nothing in the native resolutions list is close.

Earlier displays & monitors
