She Knows
[Editor’s Note: This interview with Shailene Woodley originally ran during the 2014 Sundance Film Festival following the premiere of “ White Bird in a Blizzard .” The film opens October 24 in select theaters and is currently available to watch on video on demand platforms.]
In the year since Shailene Woodley was last at Sundance with “The Spectacular Now,” a lot has changed for the actress. Then a Spirit Award-winner for her breakout performance in “The Descendants,” Woodley came to Park City last year with a lot of pressure on her to impress with her anticipated follow-up project. She did and swiftly got cast as the lead in pair of big-screen adaptations of popular young adult novels — “Divergent” and “The Fault in Our Stars.”
This year, she showed up to Sundance with Gregg Araki ’s sexually charged teen film “White Bird in a Blizzard,” based on the novel by Laura Kasischke. In the film, Woodley plays Kat, a college-bound teenager whose mother (a hammy and delicious Eva Green) mysteriously vanishes. Was she murdered? Did she run away? Over the course of Araki’s giddy new film, Kat gradually comes to discover the reason for her disappearance, all while exploring her own burgeoning sexuality.
Woodley called Indiewire days after leaving Park City to discuss the racy role, her love for all things Araki, and why she’s so selective about what she takes on.
I grew up watching Gregg Araki, but you’re eight years younger than me. How did you discover his work?
Yeah, I found Gregg, he’s really good friends with my manager randomly, and so a few years ago my manager was like, “You gotta see ‘Mysterious Skin,'” and this was just a few years before ‘”Kaboom” came out, and I watched “Mysterious Skin” and I was blown away, not just by the movie but by Joe’s performance, by the entire thing. So yeah, ever since that moment, I was like “I have to work with Gregg Araki,” and I started watching his other films, and I loved that he had such a unique voice. Every one of his films was so drastically different from one another and yet, they all could be related back to being a Gregg Araki film, and I think that’s a rare quality and art, a very rare trait.
You’re a bigger star now than when you came to Park City last year with “The Spectacular Now.” Gregg asks a lot of you in the part, especially in the nudity department. Were you scared of taking this on?
I wouldn’t say that it scared me, but it was definitely something I’d never done before, so it was a fun challenge. Gregg creates such a comfortable environment though, that it didn’t feel like a vulnerable choice, it didn’t feel that intimidating or that frightening. I think the biggest thing though is that, especially nudity-wise and sexuality-wise, nothing’s exploitative, explotative , how do you say that?
Yeah, nothing’s exploitative. So, it felt very truthful and natural, and that’s what I’m really keen on when I see a movie and when I do film, because I want to make sure I’m being as truthful as possible.
And that’s the thing I love about Kat’s character so much, is that she’s so refreshingly frank about her sexuality, and that the film in no way judges that. Did that kind of appeal to you?
Oh absolutely. I had someone say to me, “It’s very rare in a movie that you see a woman chase a man, let alone a younger woman chase a man,” not in a desperate way but in an empowered way. I thought that was really neat actually, and I love that about Kat, I love that she knew what she wanted, regardless of whether or not that was actually a healthy choice for herself, she knew what she wanted and she wasn’t afraid to fulfill those desires.
Now, although you lose your virginity in both this film and in the film you had last year at Sundance, “The Spectacular Now,” the two roles you play in each film couldn’t be any more different. Who do you identify more with? The quiet girl you play in “The Spectacular Now” or kind of the brash and outspoken Kat?
I think I’m kind of a mix between both. You know, we’re lucky… when we do characters, to be able to explore different colors of ourselves and different sides of ourselves. When I was in high school, my experience was maybe more similar to Amy’s, story-wise, but my personality was more similar to Kat’s. So yeah, I just feel that they’re both extensions of who I’ve been throughout my life.
Following your breakout performance in “The Descendants” you waited it out for great roles to come your way. You clearly aren’t one who feels the need to just work for the sake of keeping busy. What do you attribute that to?
Well for me, acting has always been about the pure pleasure and fun that I get out of it. I’m so passionate about it, I used to call it a hobby, it’s just like, this incredible art form that fulfilled a part of my soul that nothing else did, or that nothing else came close to being able to do. And so, after Sundance, even now, I have nothing planned, I’m doing the second “Divergent” movie, “Insurgent,” later this summer, and after that and before that, I have nothing planned because I haven’t read a script that I felt passionately inclined to do.
So for me it’s about, when I read a script, I know immediately whether I have butterflies in my stomach or if I don’t. And if I do have butterflies in my stomach, I will do anything, and fight so hard to be a part of the film. And if I don’t, then I graciously let it go and let somebody else who’s gonna be perfect for that role take it on. Because if I jump into something that I’m not 100% dedicated to, it’s gonna show in my performance, and it’s gonna show in the movie, and there’s gonna be this weird missing link, and if I do a character that I’m not passionate about or the character’s not right for me or I’m not right for it, then that’s obviously gonna show as well, versus when somebody else jumps in there and they do have the passion for it and they do have the dedication, they’re gonna do a remarkable job. So, I’ve never believed in the whole ride-the-wave thing, that you’re on top of the wave, you gotta stay up there. Like, I don’t know man, I think it’s kinda fun to paddle in the water a little bit, maybe go for a little swim. I mean why do we gotta ride the wave?
I totally agree. How did lock down a team that believed in your approach? It sounds like you’re more selective than most actresses your age.
I’m very lucky. I’ve been with one of my agents since I was 8, so 14 years now. I’ve been with my other agent since I was 15, so 7 years, and I’ve been with my manager since I was 13, so now almost 10 years. So I’ve really kinda grown up with all of them, and they all know me in and out, and we have an incredibly healthy beautiful relationship where they can say, “We think this is important for A B and C reasons,” and I can say “OK I hear you, but I disagree, and this is why” and they say “OK I hear you.” So, we are very much a team.
I know lot of people who have agents and managers and publicists who don’t necessarily feel like they’re on the same team as them. They’re more working together as business affiliate partners, than as a team. And for me, it was very very important that they know me in and out, and I know them in and out, because as much as this could be called a “career,” it really is, at the end of the day, acting is an art form. It’s just like being a musician or painting a picture or taking a scrapbook class. And so to have people I’m surrounded by who understand that, is really special, I’m so fortunate.

She's keen to 'bring truth' to her films.
Now Shailene Woodley has revealed to New York magazine that she had absolutely no problem stripping off for the sex scenes in White Bird In A Blizzard, which played at the Sundance Film Festival in January.
'It was so much fun. Everyone was freaked out because I’m nude, but in real life, when I have sex, I’m naked. I don’t have a bra on, and I don’t usually have panties on. So let’s make a real movie! Let’s bring truth to the scene!'
Black and white and red all over: Shailene Woodley wore a quirky frock for a trip to Sirius Radio in New York on Monday as she opened up about her nudity in White Bird In A Blizzard for New York magazine
Bringing truth: The 22-year-old said 'everyone was freaked out' because she stripped off for a bedroom scene with actor Thomas Jane in White Bird In A Blizzard, adding, 'in real life, when I have sex, I'm naked'
The 22-year-old and her best friend Brie Larson, 24, are the cover girls for the magazine's June edition, which hit the stands on Monday.
Talking about her role as a teenager whose life is thrown into chaos when her mother disappears, Shailene added: 'I didn’t want to be exploited, but this girl—like most girls when they first have sex—doesn’t know what she’s doing.
'I wanted their first kiss to be sloppy, teenagerish making out. When you’re younger, you think you know what to do, but you really don’t.'
Cover girls: The young actress revealed her attitude to sex scenes in an interview with June's New York magazine that accompanied her cover shot with best friend Brie Larson
Eye-popping: Shailene looked chich in the colourful dress that she paired with black booties
Shailene is in New York to promote her new movie, The Fault In Our Stars, and was spotted leaving Sirius Radio's office on Monday.
The honey blonde, who had her long hair cut into a cute pixie style to play a young woman with cancer in the film, wore a quirky knee-length dress with eye-popping geometric patterns in red, black and white.
She paired the frock with cuban-heeled black ankle boots that had a three-buckle detail.
On the campaign trail: Shailene and co-star Ansel Elgort promoted The Fault In Our Stars in a Q&A session at the Apple Store in New York on Saturday
The Life Of An American Teenager star wore light, daytime make-up, including black eye liner and mascara, a hint of grey eye shadow, peach blusher and nude lipstick.
On Saturday she and co-star Ansel Elgort joined their cast mates onstage at the Apple store in the trendy SoHo section of Manhattan for a Q&A on The Fault In Our Stars, about two teens who meet at a cancer support group and fall in love. The Fault In Our Stars opens on Friday.
It's her third film out this year. The busy star also played the lead in Divergent, which was released in March. She's signed up to reprise her role as Tris in the next three installments of the franchise, based on Veronica Roth's bestsellers.

Shailene Woodley and Brie Larson buddy up on the cover of New York Magazine ‘s latest issue, on newsstands now.
Here is what the young stars had to share with the mag:
Shailene on filming sex scenes for White Bird in a Blizzard : “It was so much fun. Everyone was freaked out because I’m nude, but in real life, when I have sex, I’m naked. I don’t have a bra on, and I don’t usually have panties on. So let’s make a real movie! Let’s bring truth to the scene! I didn’t want to be exploited, but this girl�”like most girls when they first have sex�”doesn’t know what she’s doing. I wanted their first kiss to be sloppy, teenagerish making out. When you’re younger, you think you know what to do, but you really don’t.”
Brie on trying to find rejection : “Lately, I’ve been getting too much attention with the Met Gala and work going so well that I try to find rejection in my day. I’ll seek out someone on the street or at the farmers’ market and ask for something where I know they’ll say no. No one likes rejection, but it’s real. And I don’t want to lose that feeling.”
Shailene on the Jennifer Lawrence comparisons : “As women, we are constantly told that we need to compare ourselves to a girl in school, to our co-workers, to the images in a magazine. How is the world going to advance if we’re always comparing ourselves to others? I admire Jennifer Lawrence, but she’s everyone’s favorite person to compare me to. Is it because we both have short hair and a vagina? I see us as separate individuals. And that’s important. As women, our insecurities are based on all these comparisons. And that creates distress.”
