As a dedicated follower, I cannot help but empathize with Shailene Woodley‘s journey in auditioning for The Descendants. Her tenacity and resilience are truly inspiring, as she refused to let a single rejection deter her from pursuing her dream.
She recalled this while conversing with Vanity Fair and shared that she auditioned for the role of Alexandra King, daughter of her onscreen dad, Clooney’s character named Matt King in the aforementioned movie.
During the audition, Woodley was required to perform a deeply emotional scene in which she confided in her father about her mother’s infidelity. After completing the audition, the actress confidently expressed that she had “nailed it” and was certain she would secure the role.
However, contrary to expectations, it didn’t happen as planned. She admitted feeling puzzled because no callback was received. The celebrated actress from Big Little Lies remembered persistently imploring her agents for nearly a year, sending them emails weekly, inquiring about her feedback, what she might have done incorrectly, and about the movie she was supposed to be part of.
In addition, during our chat, the actress explained, “The casting director essentially told me that the director wasn’t keen on me, stating ‘she wasn’t any good.’ I, in turn, broke down in tears during the audition.
Later on, Woodley disclosed that she persistently pursued her agents for about a year regarding this matter, eventually receiving a call-back. Upon returning, they provided her with some advice to maintain composure and simply be truthful during the audition, which was indeed successful in securing her the role.
Actress from “The Fault In Our Stars” revealed that during filming of a specific scene, director Alexander Payne approached her while seated near the couch, gently requested her to, “cease with the acting.
Woodley acknowledged her appreciation towards the director, explaining how one particular bit of advice he gave significantly impacted her acting career and personal identity as an actress. She went on to say, “It was in this scene that I had the chance to understand it more deeply thanks to Alexander.
