Shailene Woodley Instagram – @shailenewoodley doesn’t really do small talk. She is unfailingly polite — to @chloefou, to the waitstaff of the restaurant they’re at, to everyone — but pretenses just aren’t her thing. “I’m very uninterested in the performance of people at this moment in life. I’m uninterested in the external value that we put on everything,” the actor tells Joe, less than 10 minutes into their conversation. “I find the performance of being something else in order to receive love or acceptance or work from others to be the ultimate form of soul death.”
Soul death! Coming from someone whose job is literally performing — and in a famously superficial industry — this perhaps sounds like a crisis of faith. But anyone who’s followed Woodley, from her breakout roles (‘The Secret Life of the American Teenager’) through her YA blockbusters (the ‘Divergent’ films) to her prestige TV turn (‘Big Little Lies’), knows she’s always marched to her own beat. And now, with @starz’s ‘Three Women,’ she’s found a project that lets her cut right to the big questions: What are our deepest desires? Why are we the way we are? What’s stopping us from being our truest selves? Read Bustle’s September cover story at the link in bio.
