Shailene Woodley Recalls Laura Dern Call That Convinced Her To Do ‘Big Little Lies’: “Forever Changed My Life”


While opening up about her bond with 'Big Little Lies' co-star Laura Dern, Shailene Woodley gave an update on the potential third season.

“It was because of that call that I decided to leave India and come back to the United States, and it forever changed my life,” added Woodley. “And so, in so many ways, I’m grateful for Laura, but that was a massive moment of courageous friendship to say, ‘I think that you’re making a mistake and I’m gonna be brave enough to tell you why, cause I really see you and I see something you can’t see in your own life right now. Adapted by David E. Kelley, Big Little Lies is a dark comedy that follows a group of moms (Woodley, Dern, Kidman, Kravitz and Reese Witherspoon) in the beachfront town of Monterey, California as they are bonded by murder.
