Shailene Woodley Unveils Striking Blonde Transformation

Shailene Woodley Unveils Lightest Hair Color Yet in Striking Blonde Transformation

Shailene Woodley has diverged from her typical look.

The 34-year-old has traded her usual brunette strands for platinum blonde tresses. As for the root of this new ‘do, she’s currently working on her latest project Count My Lies. And Woodley isn’t the only blonde bombshell on set, as her costar Lindsay Lohan is twinning her lightened locks.

Perhaps it comes as no surprise that the castmates share an uncanny resemblance, as the upcoming Hulu limited series is a thriller following compulsive liar Sloane (Woodley) who worms her way into nannying for charismatic and secretive couple Violet (Lohan) and Jay Lockhart (Kit Harington).

The show began filming in April, with Lohan and Woodley commemorating the occasion with a joint Instagram post from the set.

“Careful what you believe,” the Freak Friday star wrote in the caption. “Count My Lies is now in production… Coming soon!”

And while Woodley’s latest look is her lightest hair color yet, she is no stranger to transforming her style for a role—although it’s not always easy. When she chopped off her hair to play cancer patient Hazel Grace in The Fault in Our Stars, the Divergent star cried.

Still, once she got used to the cut, she admitted to E! News at the 2013 Gotham Independent Film Awards, “I love having my short hair, I'm into it.”

Throughout Woodley’s career, some of her characters’ haircuts have stemmed from her own ideas. After her character Jane on Big Little Lies went viral for having baby bangs, the Spectacular Now alum revealed why hair transformations were meaningful to her

“I’ve been in this position in my life where, after a major breakup, triumph or celebration or after a big change, a lot of people alter the way they look,” she told the Hollywood Reporter in 2019. “I know for myself, it’s always been haircuts and piercings. That’s been my way of moving forward in new chapters of my life.”

Although Woodley is a master at transformations, she isn’t the only person to change their look for a role. Read on to see more stars who have altered their appearance for their craft…
