Shailene Woodley confirmed she'll be singing for her role as Janis Joplin in an upcoming biopic about the legendary musician
Shailene Woodley is ready to rock and roll as Janis Joplin in an upcoming biopic about the legendary singer’s life.
While the film — which will follow Joplin’s final days before her 1970 death at age 27 — was announced in September, Woodley revealed that she’s been working on the project for seven years. According to Woodley, Perry, 59, “pushed” her and helped her “find my own voice” through some unconventional methods. “She put me in a lot of uncomfortable situations where she’s like, ‘Alright, show up here on this date.’ a massive, empty warehouse with a full band, and she’s like, ‘Have fun! Sing some songs,’” Woodley quipped. “I was like, ‘I don’t know how to sing anything.
Without spilling too many details about the movie, Woodley teased that fans can expect to see Joplin’s boho style in all its glory on the big screen. “You have the outfits?” Fallon asked, to which the actress replied, “Yeah, we have the outfits.”
