She's starring in Divergent, the sure-to-be blockbuster movie that should jettison the actress to mega-stardom when it opens Friday, and Shailene Woodley is determined to follow a George Clooney path to the top.
"He's like my second dad. He's got my back," Woodley tells the Chicago Sun-Times Sunday magazine, SPLASH.
In her big screen debut, Woodley played Clooney's daughter in the Oscar-winning film, The Descendants.
