From the strong women in front of camera to the badass ones behind it, Big Little Lies star Laura Dern says being on set of the hit HBO show is just as empowering as you’d imagine.
The 52-year-old Golden Globe winner chatted exclusively with PureWow about life behind the scenes on BLL and how championing other women is a major part of what makes it work.
“There is nothing like working amongst other women regardless of your workplace environment,” Dern said. (Amen.)
The Big Little Lies star went on to explain it’s not just fun having a group of similarly minded women on set, they also offer an enormous amount of support: “Especially if you’re raising children, [if] you have fellow workers who are going through some of the same things as you, that instead of isolating and entering the workplace to shut down and not talk about a sick kid or being worried about getting your kids to school or sick parents you’re caring for, you have a community to support you and lift you up as you do for them when they’re going through it.”
