It’s not often that Miranda_July makes a movie — Kajillionaire is only her third feature since 2005 — so Evan Rachel Wood says she “shot to the moon” in excitement at the opportunity to work with the director

She is also an established singer in the band Evan + Zane — “Some people call us a cover band, but I call us a,” she says with a laugh, emphasizing each word. Singing and acting: Wood knows she needs them both. “I can be very socially awkward at times,” she says. “But when there’s a script and the words are there, and you know where the conversation is going to go, it gives me such freedom to feel and to let my emotions out in a safe way. I can’t say the wrong thing.

In “Kajillionaire,” Wood shape-shifts, to borrow July’s term, into Old Dolio: a neglected, barely verbal person who has been conscripted by her delusional parents into a life of petty crimes that satisfy her father’s anger while he waits for, as he ominously calls it, “the Big One” to hit. Old Dolio has grown up in a cult of three.

Old Dolio’s voice is a deep, monotonous alto, and seems put on for the role. Yet it turns out that is, in fact, Wood’s natural register — she’s just been trained out of it by a speech therapist after developing nodes on her vocal cords. She had to learn to speak in a higher voice so she can continue to sing. “I had to get over this idea that the higher my voice was, the less people were going to take me seriously, or think I was smart,” she says.

Would have been nice to include.

Season 4 better be good cause season 3 was awful and boring as hell

I stopped watching this show. It gave me a headache.

This headline was my punishment for not catching up on season 3 during quarantine.

Good to know! Her character is one of my favorites! 😀

Great spoiler! :(

What in the actual fuck is wrong with you?

Everyone’s a robit and they all die at the end but wait there’s a hard drive with all the robit memories. Also Jesse Pinkman is very confused. (It was not the best season of television)

She better coming back for real not in flashback bs

MFing Dolores Snow...

Thanks ! Keep up the good work. 👍

A simple 'Evan Rachel Wood gives an update on her status on Westwood' would do. Why would you spoil the show for people who aren't caught up yet? Ridiculous.

NO SPOILERS!!!

That’s a shame

We don't want her to leave. 💜

Delete this tweet.

thanks. fucking ruined the series for me

Why the hell would you spoil the recent season? Find a better way to word this or don't call yourself a writer.

Válgame. Qué spoiler.

Jesus christ Variety, spoilers.
