Shailene Woodley Instagram – There aren’t very many books that, when mentioned, immediately prompt a flurry of knowing glances.
‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’ is one. ‘Story of O’ is another. In 2019, ‘Three Women’ joined this exclusive pantheon. @lisadtaddeo’s debut burrowed into the sex lives of an Indiana woman in the midst of an affair, a 17-year-old engaging in a relationship with her married high school English teacher, and a New England restaurateur whose husband likes to watch her have sex with other people. Taddeo has now turned the book into a series of the same title, which premieres on Starz Sept.13. As creator and executive producer, she oversaw the transition from page to screen and helped assemble an all-star cast that includes @shailenewoodley, Betty Gilpin, DeWanda Wise, Gabrielle Creevy, and Lola Kirke.
Ahead of the show’s premiere, Taddeo sat down with Woodley—who plays a Taddeo stand-in on the show—to discuss the origins of their friendship, how art helps them feel less alone, and what advice they wish they could impart upon their younger selves.
