Shailene Woodley Biography

Shailene Woodley is an actress known for her work in film, television, and theater. Woodley first gained recognition for her role as Amy Juergens in the ABC Family teen drama series "The Secret Life of the American Teenager," a part she secured while still in high school. At age 15, she was diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis and wore a chest-to-hips plastic brace for two years, continuing her acting career during this period.

Woodley achieved a significant film breakthrough with her performance in Alexander Payne's "The Descendants" opposite George Clooney, earning a Cannes Trophée Chopard Award and a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. She gained wider recognition for her starring roles as a teenage cancer patient in the romantic drama "The Fault in Our Stars" and as Beatrice Prior in the science-fiction trilogy "The Divergent Series." Her portrayal in "The Fault in Our Stars" earned her The Hollywood Film Award for Hollywood Breakout Performance – Actress.

Expanding her presence in television, Woodley starred as a sexual assault survivor in the HBO drama series "Big Little Lies," alongside Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon. Her performance in the series led to nominations for both an Emmy and a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or Movie.

Woodley has continued to diversify her roles across film and television, appearing as a legal assistant in "The Mauritanian," as the mistress of Enzo Ferrari in Michael Mann's "Ferrari," and as the wife of a meme stock investor in "Dumb Money." She also portrayed a fictionalized version of author Lisa Taddeo in the drama series "Three Women," based on Taddeo's non-fiction book. Woodley starred alongside Alan Ritchson in the action-thriller "Motor City," which premiered at the Venice International Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival. On Broadway, she made her debut in the play "Cult of Love" by Leslye Headland, earning the Theater World Award's Dorothy Loudon Award for Excellence in The Theater.

In addition to her acting career, Woodley is an environmental activist and serves as a Greenpeace Oceans Ambassador. She co-founded the nonprofit organization All It Takes, which focuses on youth development, and has been active in political causes, including protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline. Woodley's work spans independent dramas, blockbuster franchises, prestige television, and theater, reflecting her versatility and engagement with social and environmental issues.
